dryer drum
Forget about the sound of metal buttons and zippers making
noise as they tumble, thanks to a unique sound-dampening
material that surrounds the stainless steel dryer drum. The dryer
runs quieter, even when you load items with metal accents.

The drum’s stainless steel construction has a smooth
surface that resists odors, rust and chipping and
helps prevent fabrics from snagging or tearing.
Steam technology
In the washer, steam breaks down and dissolves tough stains
without pretreating. In the dryer, features like the Enhanced Touch
Up Steam cycle and Quick Refresh Steam cycle combine mist with
heat to create steam to relax wrinkles and refresh dry clothes.
