The Evolution Of Drying Technology
From clotheslines to wringers to electric dryers, laundry technology continues to advance. And for good reason. The way you wash and dry your clothes has a direct impact on a fabric's lifespan. The Whirlpool WED8500SR incorporates AccuDry sensing and AccelerCare drying technology to squeeze the longest life possible out of all your fabrics while at the same time increasing the efficiency of the drying process. The AccuDry sensing system in this unit dries your fabrics with precision. It helps protect them from the dangers of overdrying, shrinking, and fabric damage by measuring remaining moisture in fabrics and determining the appropriate temperature and time needed to achieve gentle drying. The AccelerCare drying system safely speeds drying so you can unload and fold before the next load is ready to go in. Bottom line--dry your laundry faster and safer with the WED8500SR.
No Shirt Left Unfluffed
Nine automatic cycles. Five temperature settings. Wrinkle-free drying. With this many options, you can dry almost everything in your closet! Automatic cycles include damp-dry, super-delicate, delicate, casual, normal, and heavy-duty. Manual cycles include touch-up, quick-dry, and timed-dry. The WRINKLE SHIELD feature helps smooth out wrinkles that form when you cannot unload the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle. During this option, the dryer stops tumbling and then tumbles again for a brief period. Your options are wide open with the WED8500SR.
Dryers Should Be Seen And Not Heard
The WED8500SR employs Quiet Dry noise reduction to keep noise to a minimum. The WED8500SR has adhesively-bonded steel on top of the dryer for quiet performance. The Quiet Dry Plus noise reduction features added insulation and more rigid cabinet construction for even quieter performance.
Functional Engineering
Beyond the technology and optional settings, this model also includes features that increase the functionality and practicality of the dryer. A porcelain SpillGuard top eliminates messes, and a front-mounted lint screen makes it easy to keep air flow unrestricted while effectively removing lint. You also have a 4-way venting option, a drum light to easily spot that wayward sock, and a fully-reversible, wide-opening door with window for quick loading. The WED8500SR is stackable and can be installed with an optional pedestal drawer for easy loading/unloading. Get great performance in this dryer from a manufacturer you trust!
Better Than Lincoln Logs
Whirlpool's Duet Sport washer can be set up in various configurations. Buy the matching dryer (model number WFW8500SR) and stack the pair vertically. Opt for the 10-inch storage pedestal (sold separately) to lift the unit to a higher level so less bending is required to load and unload. Choose the 15.5-inch storage pedestal (also sold separately) to increase height from the floor and give you a shelf and storage drawers for full size bottles and boxes. This front-loading unit is easy to use in any of these configurations. The innovative suspension system features "shock absorbers" that cushion the motion of the tub and inner drum, reducing vibration and noise so that an upper floor installation is possible. Plus the door features a child lockout and a window. You could watch your clothes spin right 'round, baby, right 'round (as the 80's band Dead or Alive might say) all day long if you wanted.
