On a stacked washer and electric dryer laundry center, the label is typically in one of these spots:
- Under the washer lid (open the lid and look around the rim of the opening)
- On the cabinet frame near the washer opening
- On the back panel near the power cord entry
- Behind the control panel area (less common)
Kenmore model numbers often start with 110 and are a longer string of digits. For this unit, the full model number is 11088752791.
- Write down the model number and serial number exactly as shown

|---|---|---|
| Model number | Correct parts and diagrams | 11088752791 |
| Serial number | Production run details | Varies |

What is the capacity of the Kenmore dryer model 11088752791?
The exact dryer capacity (in cubic feet) for Kenmore laundry center model 11088752791 is listed in the product specifications section of the 11088752791 owner's manual. Most Kenmore 24-inch stacked laundry centers of this style run in a typical mid-capacity range designed for everyday family loads.
We recommend checking the specifications pages in the manual because they list the official drum capacity and electrical/venting requirements for your exact model.
- Open the 11088752791 owner's manual
- Look for “Specifications” or “Product features”
- Check for dryer drum capacity (cubic feet)
- Confirm whether your unit is a 24-inch wide laundry center (the manual cover indicates 24 in / 61 cm)
If you are comparing models or planning loads, these are realistic expectations for this Kenmore stacked laundry center style.
| Dryer type | Typical capacity range | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 24-inch stacked laundry center dryer | ~3.4 to 4.4 cu. ft. | Daily mixed loads, small bedding |
| Full-size 27-inch stand-alone dryer | ~6.5 to 7.4+ cu. ft. | Large bedding, bulky loads |
Dryer capacity affects how well clothes tumble and dry. Overloading a smaller drum increases dry time, can leave items damp, and can contribute to lint buildup. The manual also notes dryers need proper airflow and room temperature above 45°F (7°C) for normal cycle performance.
- Fill the drum loosely; items should tumble freely
- Dry bulky items (towels, blankets) in smaller batches
- Clean the lint screen before every load
- Avoid packing the drum tight with heavy, wet items
- Use the correct cycle and temperature for the fabric
