Excellent gas dryer

We purchased this dryer to replace a 23-year old Kenmore gas dryer. The GE dryer dries the clothes faster than the older dryer, is efficient, and more quiet.
This dryer has great features like the light inside, easy to use lint filter, large capacity, and all the settings I need, but it just takes really long to get the clothes dry. My previous GE dryer did a much more efficient job. I wanted a gas dryer because they typically perform better than electric models (drying clothes faster) so I went to the added expense and effort to install a gas line and also to improve the exhaust venting path for maximum airflow. But this dryer does not perform well! So I'm really disappointed and feel I wasted all that extra money and time.
I just bought a house that is less than a year old and this dryer came with it. It is the worst laundry experience I've ever had in my 45 years. The draft from opening the door sends lint into the dryer onto the clothes and all over the floor. The lint is all over the door and front of dryer. I have to clean the dryer before I remove the clothes or they are covered in lint. I have cleaned it out and no change. I called and there is no part to avoid this - I was told it is how it was designed. As a new homeowner, I can say I will never buy a GE product if this is the quality they produce. The dry time is quick and the dryer is quiet, but the clean-up of the dryer and my floor required for each load is insane!!
