Whirlpool 8.8 Cu. Ft. Cabrio High-Efficiency Gas Steam Dryer
The elegant look for this sleek steam dryer from the Cabrio series by Whirlpool complements its great features. The 8.8 cubic-foot drum can accommodate up to four loads of clothes at once, or even large blankets and rugs. The Advanced Moisture Sensing System saves time, energy and money by sensing when the clothes are finally dry and then turning itself off. For items that you'd prefer not to wash too often, the Steam Refresh Cycle will use water and heat to clean your items in 22 minutes. The Wrinkle Shield Plus Option with Steam prevents wrinkles from settling in your garments.
