Description & Features
The Whirlpool WGD5720RU gas dryer brings together smart technology, generous capacity and fabric‑care innovation in a sleek Volcano Black design that elevates any modern laundry space. With a 27" wide front‑load profile and a spacious 7.4 cu. ft. IEC Canada capacity, it easily handles family‑sized loads, bulky bedding and towels while still fitting a standard laundry closet or side‑by‑side installation. At the heart of this model is its advanced AI Intelligent Dry system, which uses multiple sensors to monitor moisture and temperature throughout the cycle, automatically adjusting dry time to help prevent overdrying, shrinking and unnecessary energy use—an advantage over many conventional dryers that rely on simple timed cycles. Another standout is the Wrinkle Shield™ Option, designed to keep clothes tumbling intermittently for an extended period after the cycle ends, helping prevent wrinkles from setting in when you can’t unload the dryer right away; this feature is especially useful for busy households and is a key differentiator often highlighted in this series. The Smart connectivity built into the Whirlpool® WGD5720RU adds even more convenience, allowing you to start or pause cycles, receive end‑of‑cycle notifications, and check remaining time from your smartphone using the compatible app, as well as integrate with popular voice assistants for hands‑free control. For delicate fabrics and items that can’t tolerate high heat, the dedicated Air Dry cycle offers gentle, unheated tumbling, while specialized options like Quick Dry help you refresh smaller loads in less time. Energy efficiency is another strong point: this model is ENERGY STAR® certified, meaning it meets strict standards for performance and energy savings, helping reduce utility costs over the life of the appliance. Inside, a thoughtfully designed drum with quad baffles promotes even tumbling and consistent drying, whether you’re running a small load or filling the full 7.4 cu. ft. capacity. Altogether, the Whirlpool WGD5720RU combines smart drying intelligence, wrinkle‑fighting performance, flexible fabric care and efficient operation, making it an excellent choice for shoppers looking for a premium gas dryer that goes beyond the basics.

Wrinkle Shield™ Option – periodically tumbles clothes for up to 150 minutes after the cycle ends to help prevent wrinkles from setting in.

AI Intelligent Dry technology – uses three sensors to monitor moisture and temperature, then automatically adjusts dry time to help prevent overdrying.

Smart Features with Whirlpool® App – lets you start, pause, and stop cycles remotely, monitor progress, and receive notifications from your smartphone when the load is done.

ENERGY STAR® Certified performance – exceeds federal efficiency standards to help reduce energy use and lower utility bills.

EcoBoost™ Option – saves energy by using lower heat and extending cycle time while still delivering effective drying.

Quick Wash & Dry pairing – when paired with the matching washer’s 25‑minute Quick Wash, the 30‑minute timed dry lets you finish a 10 lb load in under 1 hour.

Quick Dry cycle – rapidly dries small loads so key items are ready to wear in less time.

Sanitize Cycle – uses high heat to eliminate 99.9% of common household bacteria on items like towels and bedding.

Wrinkle Control cycle – uses lower temperatures plus Wrinkle Shield™ tumbling to help reduce creasing in everyday fabrics.

Air Dry cycle – provides unheated tumbling to gently dry or refresh delicate items that can’t tolerate high heat.

Specialty Cycles via Whirlpool® App – unlocks additional downloadable cycles (e.g., for activewear, jeans, swimwear) not available directly on the control panel.

Favorite Cycles in app – allows you to pin and save up to 10 preferred cycle setups for quick one‑touch access.

Custom Cycles – lets you design and save personalized drying cycles tailored to specific fabrics or loads.

Cycle Notification alerts – sends end‑of‑cycle and status notifications to your phone so loads aren’t forgotten in the drum.

Stain Guide support – offers step‑by‑step stain‑removal guidance in the app based on fabric type and stain category.

Voice Control compatibility – enables hands‑free operation using simple voice commands through supported voice assistants.

Family Share feature – allows multiple household members to access and control the dryer through the Whirlpool® App.

7.4 cu. ft. capacity – large drum size handles family‑sized loads and bulky items like comforters, blankets, and sleeping bags.

Quad Baffles drum design – four baffles tumble clothes in a randomized pattern to improve airflow and drying, especially for small loads.

Air Flow Detection / Vent Flow Detection – monitors exhaust airflow and alerts you when venting may be restricted so you can maintain performance and safety.

Gas fuel design – uses natural gas (LP convertible) for efficient, fast drying and lower operating costs versus many electric models.

Front‑load configuration – wide side‑swing door and front‑mounted drum opening simplify loading and unloading.

Stackable installation option – can be stacked with a compatible front‑load washer using an optional stacking kit to save floor space.

Pedestal compatibility – works with optional laundry pedestals to raise the dryer for easier access and add storage underneath.

Reversible door – door swing can be reversed to open from either side, improving flexibility in tight or custom laundry spaces.

Multiple temperature selections – offers Air Only, Low, Medium, and High heat settings to match different fabric care needs.

Multiple dryness levels – lets you choose Less, Normal, or More dryness to fine‑tune how dry clothes come out.

12 preset drying cycles – includes Regular, Heavy Duty, Delicates, Bedding, Jeans, Whites, Sanitize, Wrinkle Control, Air Dry and more for common load types.

Timed Dry option – allows you to set a specific drying time, ideal for touch‑ups or loads that don’t require sensor‑based drying.

Automatic temperature controls – help maintain consistent heat levels throughout the cycle for better fabric care.

Moisture sensor drying – detects remaining moisture in the load and stops the cycle when clothes reach the selected dryness level.

Front lint screen access – places the lint filter at the front of the drum opening for quick, convenient cleaning between loads.

Powder‑coat drum interior – durable drum finish resists chipping and snagging to help protect fabrics.

End‑of‑cycle signal – audible alert lets you know when the cycle is complete so you can promptly remove items.

Status indicator lights – panel indicators (Sensing, Wet, Damp, Cool Down, Check Vent) show where the load is in the cycle and when maintenance is needed.

Control Lock option – disables the control panel to prevent unintended use or accidental cycle changes.

Cycle Signal and Damp Dry Signal options – allow you to adjust or enable alerts when clothes are damp‑dry or when the cycle ends.

Wrinkle Shield™ with Steam option (where available) – adds a light mist of steam plus tumbling to help relax wrinkles in finished loads.

Four‑way venting flexibility – supports venting from the rear, left, right, or bottom to accommodate different laundry room layouts.

64 ft maximum vent length – supports longer vent runs in homes where the laundry room is far from an exterior wall.

Interior viewing window – door window lets you visually check load progress without opening the door and interrupting the cycle.

LED display with knob and button controls – combines a traditional cycle knob with modern electronic buttons for intuitive operation.

Standard 27\" width footprint – fits most existing laundry spaces and side‑by‑side or stacked installations.

American company heritage – designed by Whirlpool, a U.S. appliance manufacturer with over 100 years of history in home laundry products.
