GE 7.2 cu. ft. Gas Dryer vs Whirlpool WGD4815EW Gas Dryer

The Whirlpool WGD4815EW is the better pick for most people. It has 14 cycles, four temperature settings and a Wrinkle Shield that tumbles for up to 90 minutes after the cycle ends, while the GE 7.2 cu. ft. Gas Dryer offers only 4 cycles and a simpler Auto Dry setup. The GE gives you slightly more capacity and a reversible door with an interior light, but its rear-panel knobs and aluminized drum are basic. Owners of both report reliable, no-frills drying; the Whirlpool's extra cycle control is the real difference.

• Choose the GE 7.2 cu. ft. Gas Dryer if you want the largest drum in this pair, a reversible door and an interior light, and you only need basic timed and sensor drying.
• Choose the Whirlpool WGD4815EW if you want more cycle choices, adjustable temperatures and a Wrinkle Shield that keeps clothes tumbling after the cycle ends.
