Dryers
Dryers match washers at about 27″ wide; the difference is the vent behind and the hookup (gas vs electric). Here are the typical dimensions and every ENERGY STAR dryer we track.

| Dimension | Full-size | Compact |
|---|---|---|
| Width | 27″ | 24″ |
| Height | 38–39″ | 33½–34″ |

Frequently asked
How wide is a standard dryer?
About 27″ for full-size and 24″ for compact — the same as washers, so they pair and stack.
How much clearance behind a dryer?
About 4″ for the vent duct on vented models, so plan for several inches more than the listed depth.
