Description
Cabinet Specs & Internal Volume
Placement Guideline: This unit requires a 29-inch wide installation footprint, a 240V/5400W electrical connection, and rear-only exhaust venting. The exterior measures 29" W x 40.5" H x 28.38" D. When mapping out your floor space, keep in mind that the side-swing door is non-reversible and requires approximately 51 inches of total depth to swing open to a full 90 degrees.
The Whirlpool WED5050LW is a full-sized electric dryer finished in white, offering a versatile 7.0 cu. ft. capacity. While it maintains a standard top-load aesthetic, it utilizes a side-swing door for easy access to the drum. Inside, a dedicated drum light ensures you won't lose smaller items like socks or face cloths in the back of the cylinder. With a net weight of 114 lbs, it is a sturdy addition to any laundry room that accommodates a wider 29-inch chassis.
Fabric Integrity & Specialized Cycles
To prevent the heat-induced shrinking that ruins a good wardrobe, this model relies on dual-sensor moisture sensing. These sensors track both the internal air temperature and the dampness of your clothes, ending the cycle the moment the load is evenly dry. Beyond standard drying, the Steam Refresh cycle is a standout feature, using water vapor to relax wrinkles and odors in clothes you’ve already worn, effectively skipping a full wash cycle.
Note: If you’re prone to forgetting your laundry, the Wrinkle Shield™ option provides intermittent tumbling for a set period after the cycle ends to stop creases from setting in. This model also offers a specialized Static Reduce setting and 12 total programs—including Quick Dry and Heavy Duty—to ensure you have the right drying logic for everything from delicate silks to thick bath towels.

Features
Moisture Sensing
Two sensors closely monitor inside moisture and air temperatures to deliver the right results for each load. When fabrics are evenly dry and air reaches ideal temperatures, the cycle stops, helping prevent over- and under-drying.
Wrinkle Shield™ Option
After the cycle ends, help keep wrinkles from setting into clean, dry fabrics with the Wrinkle Shield™ Option. It keeps clothes tumbling for up to 2.5 hours after the cycle ends or until you open the door.
Timed Dry
Take control of your time and the dryness level of your load. Set the control for 15, 30, 60 or 90 minutes when a damp load needs a little extra dry time or when using a drying rack.
End of Cycle Signal
Know when your cycle is finished with an end of cycle buzzer.
Steam Refresh Cycle
Release wrinkles with the Steam Refresh Cycle. It uses water and heat to get clothes ready to wear without rewashing.
Air Only Cycle
Fluff and refresh loads or air out delicates with a cycle that tumbles your items with no heat.
7.0 Cu. Ft. Capacity
With a 7.0 Cu. Ft. Capacity dryer drum, there’s plenty of room to easily handle the large loads you washed in the matching top load washer.
