You have a very valid point. I read that you should have twice the dryer capacity for a wash load to properly tumble. If you have a 5.8 cu.ft. washer, you would need a dryer that is almost 12 cu ft. to handle that load properly.
I know with my Maytag it holds 4.4 cu ft. When I do as full load of towels the 8.0 cu. ft companion dryer is almost full when the load is dry. Now mind you the washer is control packed, whereas the dryer is tumble fluffed, but it illustrates how the clothes need to move freely.
