I’m just so happy with this dryer!! Dries very fast and collects all the lint and hair that my old dryer didn’t. And my clothes smell and feel clean. Not over-dried. It even dries large quilts, blankets, and towels quickly. I’ve read other reviews saying not the greatest things about this dryer, but I haven’t had any negative issues with it.
Dryer works okay on everything but large sheets, blankets and bedspreads. The machine rolls those up it a tight ball. We have to constantly unwind them and restart. Dryer balls help a tiny bit but this seems to be a problem in the design. I’ve never had this happen as badly on other machines we’ve owned. I like the WiFi feature
This dryer does a poor job of actually drying my clothes to completion. There are a limited set of pre-determined programs, like "Mixed Loads", "Cottons", and "Towels", none of which consistently fully dry my clothes (I've tried all of those options, repeatedly). Other pre-set options like "Bulky Bedding" and "Sanitize" would end up drying the contents for far too long. There is a "Timed Dry" option to set a particular drying duration, but you can only increment that up or down by 1 minute at a time. I'd prefer not to hit the "+1" button 60 times every single time I dry a load of laundry, just to get a proper drying duration. For some reason, GE decided to NOT allow users to increment the durations of the other settings up or down using the +/- buttons. If you're wondering if my dryer vent is blocked, it's not. The air flow out of it is forceful. This dryer replaced a 35-year-old Maytag dryer, and I was happier with that dryer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for the feedback regarding your dryer. Please refer to the link below for guidance:
This drier is amazing, love the quick dry feature. It dries clothes really well in half the time, witch saves on energy costs and that is a plus always. It looks great and I am really loving all the settings and features, really quite, too. Love my GE!
