Bought this recently as the match to our preferred washer. Besides your normal dry features, we really liked the vent being inset on the unit so the vent hose does not get smashed between the dryer and the wall. It allows us to position the unit closer to the wall. We also wanted a washer/dryer with front controls so it would fit under the counter mounted above the units.
I bought this back in July, though the washing machine works fine I have had this ongoing issue with their vent in the back of the dryer. It turns black and than that rubs off and is ruining clothes, sheets, towels exc. I have had a repairman from PC Richard where I purchased it and Electrolux. Both times I was told I’m melting my clothes or that Its the size stickers that come on new clothing. It is neither and I’m treated like I don’t know how to do laundry. Speaking to representatives on the phone I believe it’s anyvresudue from detergent or softener left on the clothes and when the vent heats up and the wet clothes rub over it that is what is melting. But it doesn’t seem to matter and now I am stuck with a dryer that I can’t even use for fear of ruining more clothes.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello, Alliekim11.
We appreciate you for stopping by and sharing your experience with us.
I feel awful to hear about the matter with your dryer’s vent. I can understand your concern when your appliance does not perform as expected.
In some cases, drying a small load on high heat may cause some scorching of your clothes.
Do you use fabric softener sheets? Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint filter or dryer vent.
I have attempted a connection with you via email to gain more insight into your recent experience.
For any immediate assistance or questions, we can be reached at 877-435-3287. Our Customer Care Team is available Monday through Friday from 8:30am-8pm EST.
We love this dryer! What's great is that it not only has "eco" settings, but it's a "smart" dryer with a really great sensor, stopping the dryer when items are ready - this avoids wasting energy on keeping the dryer going unnecessarily. We love the steam settings, too. Enjoying this dryer tremendously.
This is the most wonderful dryer I have ever purchased. The lint system is unlike any I have ever seen, and I checked many of the dryers on the market. It is digital but so easy to operate. It is very attractive. I love the Titanium color. Also purchased the pedestal.
