Tonight I’ll be reviewing the Duet Electric / Gas Dryer by Whirlpool. I’m reviewing these two dryers together because they are both exactly the same in programs, size, and specifications except one is powered by gas and one is powered by electricity. Are these washing machines worthy enough to be included in the same set as the Duet Washer? Read on and find out.
Positives
The GEW9250P dryer features 5 temperature selections, a handy bulky items cycle, Wrinkle Shield, and easy to navigate electronic controls. However, the most utilitarian feature on these dryers is the Senseon Drying system that detects when your clothes are dry and stops drying mid-cycle if your clothes dry before the drying cycle is finished. (Of course, you don’t have to worry about your clothes being wrinkled with the built in Wrinkle Shield that intermittently engages to prevent wrinkles.) This cuts down on expensive energy bills and prevents your clothes from over drying, which can damage colors and fabrics.
Another excellent feature is the Quiet Dry Plus Noise Reduction System that reduces dryer noisy dryer ambiance. (Excellent for laundry rooms next door to other rooms or those who live in apartments and condos.) The Duet Electric Dryer is also great for those with limited space because it can be stacked with a Duet Washing Machine, saving precious floor space you need for storing things like ski boots and 200 lb. bags of dog food from Cost Co.
Negatives
Unlike its older brother, the Whirlpool Duet Washer, the Duet Electric Dryer has no flaws! It comes in 3 different colors and is a great addition to any laundry room. It has modes for sensitive clothes, durable and bulky articles of clothing and can handle anything in between. This is an excellent buy!
Final Analysis
The GEW9250P Electric Dryer is a great choice for anyone! I give this Whirlpool Dryer my second highest rating: a perfect 5 stars out of 5! Just remember, if you choose to go with a the energy bill cutting Gas Whirlpool Duet Dryer, make sure your home is already set up to run one, or you could end up paying another $100 - $200 dollars to get it working.
