I purchased my dryer in September and I'm very happy with it. The only con I can see is the lint trap. It is very big and cumbersome. Not easy to open either.
I've only had this machine for about a month, so far no problems! The filter is very thin and will probably need to be replaced multiple times though, which makes me nervous. Living in a condo with thin walls, this machine is very noisy though! If that is a concern of yours I'd steer clear of this machine.
We have had the dryer for a few months. It has many settlings which should be good for specialized loads. Unfortunately, we have not figured out how to use all of the functions.
