This machine lasted only 30 months, infact the dryer was making lot of noise as soon as the warranty period of 2 yrs was over, initially we did not give much notice then later stage my flat MCB was tripping as soon as the dryer was running. We called whirlphool service they did not send the person even after repeated reminders then we called a urban clap technician who said the entire gear box is gone replacement cost 5500/- this was due to some water leakage internally . Presently we are thinking of going for a new machine .
