My new dryer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new dryer works great. My only complaint is that there’s no way to turn off the buzzer. Good thing I don’t have a baby.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The biggest negative for this dryer is the VERY LOUD end of cycle buzzer that goes off multiple times until you either open the door or until the timer fully runs out (at least 3 times). The buzzer can't be turned off/volume can't be adjusted. The loud buzzer means you can't throw stuff in the dryer before bed if the dryer is anywhere where you can hear it unless you want to be woken up after you fall asleep.
Other than that, it is a solid, basic dryer for the price. This is a shallow depth unit and one of the cheaper units, it is pretty basic feature wise. The dryer settings and temperature options are sufficient for normal everyday needs. The dryer's lint filter is in the front and is easy to remove and clean. Noise level while running is quiet enough or at least relative to the basic one it replaced. The buttons and knobs at the top are easy to use and simple enough that they seem like they should hold up for long term use. I do think the dryer itself seems to "blow out" more lint onto the floor/around it than my old unit. I feel like there is more loose lint around now than there was before. Alternatively, it could also just be that there is more airflow and instead of getting stuck under the dryer it is (for now) escaping to the outside floor area.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this dryer to replace my 40 year old Maytag. The capacity is larger, controls easy to operate, quiet and drys all types of loads - from heavy towels to light loads in less time than the old one. Being able to purchase a quality product locally with repair work available if I need it was a huge plus.
The dryer does not have a choice for turning off the dryer buzzer. The buzzer is too loud and long. The dryer, which performs as expected, would get a higher rating if there is a control for turning off the buzzer or if the buzzer was quieter. I compare it to a basketball buzzer.
Oh, I like the way the dryer works however I cannot abide by that “ signal done “ buzz. It keeps ringing and demands attention. No choice .. it can’t be turned iff…when the dryer is done it rings, and I don’t even want it to ring
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your review, we are going to share your comments regarding the end of cycle signal to our product team for review.
Product works very well. Two things I do not like about it or that laces on a pair of shorts sometimes get stuck and twisted in 1,000,000 kn on something above the inside of the door. And I would like to know if there’s any way to turn off the obnoxious buzzer that sounds at the end of the cycle. I don’t see anywhere to do that.
I can't say enough about the GE dryer I bought. Hugh capacity and simple controls makes my life easier. I don't have to " figure things out with the dials ". So far the performance is top notch for an electric dryer. Better than the previous dryers I had purchased!! Hoping to get many years of service out of my dryer!
