A few weeks prior to selling my last house, my washing machine broke. Had to replace it and purchased an Electrolux. My previous washer had been a high-end machine...but didn't live up to the Electrolux. Unfortunately for me, the purchaser of the house got a brand new Electrolux washer. Within a week of being in my new home, my wife insisted that we replace the washer and dryer with Electrolux machines. Purchased both a washer and dryer and can't speak highly enough about how well they both work. Quiet, balanced, and with every possible feature and option to make washing and drying easy. Our Electrolux washer/dryer handle clothes, towels, blankets, dog beds, and everything else we can throw at them.
I bought this dryer 2 years ago and loved it. We just moved and refinished a home and I insisted on having this machine again, the new model of course. Things keep getting stuck in the dryer. There are three "beams" that move the clothes around, two short and 1 long! The long one leaves only a sliver of space between the sides where my bedding and clothes are getting caught. I have been in my house for 3 weeks and have had multiple issues with the dryer. I'm so disappointed. My dryer is not broken and I have to wait 4 days for a repair person to come to the house and I have three little lads. This is definitely a design flaw. It has to be corrected.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this six months ago and the lint shield clip got hooked on a piece of my clothing, got pulled out and went for a tumble. Now the clip is broken and the lint guard is cracked and catches on everything. Trying to find a replacement is impossible!! I've wrecked so many clothes I am no longer using my dryer.

We stayed at a friend's house that had an electrolux washer and dryer that were amazing. They were several years old so when I wanted the same we had to purchase the current version. They were both a disappointment but the worse was the dryer. The product design department created what they call a clam lint filter. The way it is designed it has vents that lies flat at the bottom of the dryer door. If you have a light load of anything, articles of clothing gather on top of the filter vents and stay there. The dryer runs for what seems like forever and when it does stop, the clothes are still damp from the suctioned clothes blocking the vents. It is a poor design and needs to be fixed. What they need to do is design a filter whose top is angled so that the clothes cannot get sucked onto and lodged on top of the lint filter vents. I would buy it in a heartbeat. Instead I will have to take a loss on this set and sell them. I cannot stand vigil on my dryer. It really is upsetting. I will never buy elctrolux again if they do not fix this filter soon.
