Description

A 110-litre drum that gives laundry room to move

An 8 kg capacity and a 110-litre drum mean laundry is not dried in a tight bundle: clothes tumble freely, dry more evenly and come out with fewer creases. One cycle handles most of a full washing machine load, whether that is towels, bed linen or the whole family's everyday clothes. The drum light and the viewing window let you see what is going on inside without opening the door.

Energy use you can plan for

Whirlpool rates the dryer energy class C with an annual energy consumption of 96 kWh. The yearly figure is useful because it lets you estimate how much electricity the dryer uses over a year of normal use and compare it with other models. The manufacturer data gives the power as 800 W. Delay start also lets you move drying to night-time hours.

Steam and delay start for everyday convenience

The steam function helps refresh clothes and reduce creases, so there is less ironing after drying. Delay start postpones the start of drying by up to 24 hours: load the machine in the evening and let it run overnight, or time it so dry laundry is waiting when you get home. A full programme list is not included in the manufacturer data, so check the user manual and care labels before use.

Child lock and a 61 cm depth

The child lock stops small hands from accidentally changing or interrupting the selected programme. The machine measures 60 × 61 × 85 cm, so with a 61 cm depth it also fits narrower bathrooms and niches. There is no self-cleaning function on this model, so the filters need regular cleaning. The maximum noise level is 63 dB, which helps you decide whether to run it in the evening in a flat.

Care that keeps drying efficient

A dryer works best with a clean lint filter: empty it after every cycle, because a clogged filter makes drying take longer and raises energy use. As this model has no self-cleaning function, it is also worth checking the other filters regularly as described in the manual. Before loading, check the care labels and sort clothes by fabric type so they dry more evenly.

Who this tumble dryer is for

The Whirlpool WP C8 WBS EE suits families that wash often and want laundry dry quickly with as few creases as possible. The 8 kg drum, steam function and 24-hour delay start help you plan laundry day, and the child lock gives peace of mind when there are small children at home. A depth of 61 cm and a width of 60 cm let it stand next to a standard washer even in a small room.
