After 10 years, my old set expired so I went and get this dryer and the matching washer on sale. I categorize these units as miniature computers; there's a setting for everything. I like the fact that this dryer has a anti-wrinkle feature so if you can't get to the laundry timely after the cycle has completed, it will spin the drum every so often to keep the clothes from wrinkling and do so for up to 150 minutes. There's a cool chime that will let you know when the laundry is done. And, if you're like me, you don't want to hear it loud you can control that too. One thing I didn't like right away was the fact that when powering the dryer on or off, there is a chime for that too. But I quickly found out you can disable that by holding the chime button down for 10 seconds. You can always turn it back on too with another 10 second push. As stated, there's a setting for everything so I'm still consulting with the manual to see what dryer setting I'm interested in using. Oh, and it's eco friendly too. Overall, I'm very please with this dryer.
I really like a lot of the features on this dryer but it took me a while to figure out the right settings for the right loads. I had several loads that ended up still being damp after sending them through the setting where it senses the moisture in the clothes and adjust time itself. I finally figured out that the timed settings work best at getting things dry the first time so now I love it.
We have only owned this dryer for a couple of months but we are already very happy with it. Drying time is fast, doesn't keep running when the clothes are dry saving you money. I would recommend it.
I purchased this because my old dryer quit. Overall, this is a good unit. Eco dry will leave clothes damp, I guess it's the price of economy drying. Front load door seems smaller, but having a surface to catch the dry clothes before they hit the floor is good.
LOVE this dryer. This dryer leaves our laundry fresh smelling, and I love that the dryer keeps up with the washing machine. Also, I like the fact that the timer adjust to the amount of clothing that you are drying.
