Got the new dryer just after Christmas. With a family of 5, having the large drum capacity is essential. I think my favorite feature is the steam dry, as I do not iron unless I have to. I absolutely love this dryer!
My husband bought me this gas dryer after my last one died. I go through dryers faster than anyone I know. This is our third dryer in eleven years! So far, it's okay. I love the big size but it doesn't always dry our clothes completely. I find myself turning it back on for 15-20 minutes to finish drying whatever is in there. However, if I put it on the highest heat setting, it seems to dry much better. I just don't like drying everything on high heat. It's not eco friendly and the clothes (towels especially) come out feeling abrasive when the temp is set too high. Also, it's very noisy!
I bought this only a short while ago,but I love it! I bought it for our second home so that we don't have to carry clothes back and forth on the weekends. It drys large loads in a shorter amount of time than the dryer I have in my permanent residence. It is very quiet. I also like the damp dry feature letting me know to take some of my items out when partially dry. So, so far, I am very happy with this dryer.
