Purchased with the expectation the matching set would last 20+ years. Works very well though I admittedly have not tried the steam functions yet. My biggest gripe is the time left indicator gets to 5 minutes left then seems to stay there for up to 30 minutes with the clothes still noticeable wet at the 5 minute mark. All is well when it says it is done but clearly the counter and moisture sensor are not linked so it’s at best an educated guess for how long the load will take to dry. Multiple settings and options don’t seem to make a notable difference. Would absolutely buy again not that I plan to as I hope this is the last laundry set I ever have to buy.
We were hesitant to get this because of the electronic screen but were assured it was THE best. After 4 uses, the motherboard had a fatal failure. We were without a dryer for 2 weeks. So far it is doing a good job. Dries the clothes much faster than our previous dryer. I like the pet hair mode too. Lint catcher could be better but is ok. I don't like that they say it has to be professionally vacuumed out every 2 years. An added expense to an expensive dryer. Note we don't have the steam feature hooked up. The 7 year warranty is a plus. We wish we would have gone 1 step down. I think less is more as far as the controls go.
I was excited to buy a new SQ dryer based on SQs reputation and all the reviews I saw. However, exactly one week after my dryer was delivered it broke-hard. Turned out to be the control board and it had to be ordered. I was without my brand new dryer for three weeks! Not very happy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Both the washer and dryer work great. The washer works better than any other washer we've owned and that smell with the front loader is gone. Dryer dries effectively.
