The up front lint filter is located in the perfect spot on this model! It makes lint removal easy while enhancing the airflow within the appliance and for your garments. We'd like to assist with your dryer's heating temperature. It's important that you select the correct temperature for the type of laundry in the load. You can find information on which temperature to select on pg. 6 of the owner's manual here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--bCbLwlRq--/bibgvy3lenfqvo3vwhf7.pdf.
I purchased this item in February 2026 and it is great!

We are glad to hear that it’s been working great for you. We like to highlight the Auto dry feature on this model unit. It monitors your clothing items and senses when your clothes are dry which also helps prevent overheating. We are sure you’ll be impressed with it for many years!
Simple. Works well. Not much can go wrong. I especially like the smooth control panel which is so much easier to wipe down. Only con is that there’s no way to switch off the alarm.

We love the Auto Dry feature on this model! Auto Dry monitors the internal air temperature to determine the ideal drying time, protecting your garments from over drying. The end-of-cycle sound on your dryer cannot have the volume reduced or disabled. We will pass your feedback on this signal along to our product team for review.
Good value replacement dryer and works great. One thing that would be an improvement is making the buzzer optional with a switch. The buzzer is annoying and unnecessary.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We appreciate your feedback; we are going to share your comments regarding the end-of-cycle buzzer with our product team for review.
So disappointed in it have only had it since 1/1/26 and have had to replace the Knob on it three times now for no reason should it break when turning it to the numbers And sometimes I have to dry my clothes twice because it doesn’t dry successfully the first time
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are sorry you've had to replace the knob on your new dryer three times and it's not drying as expected. We recommend service for the issue with the knob. Please schedule a service appointment with a Bodewell technician by calling 833-426-3393 or schedule online at https://www.bodewell.com/schedule-repair-service
As far as the clothes not drying properly, make sure you are cleaning the lint filter before every load, and matching the control settings to the load you are drying. Also, when it comes to sorting, it's best to separate heavy items from lightweight items (generally, a well-sorted washer load is a well-sorted dryer load).

Dryer was included with the house we bought 5 months ago and I hate it. Most of the time, it dries fine, but sometimes the dry cycles have to be much longer than normal. Also, the buzzer at the end of the cycle is horrendous. We have a 2 story house and you can hear the buzzer sound through the whole house clearly. It doesn’t even just go off once, but 3 times. Seems to be when there’s 5 mins, 3 mins, and end of cycle that the buzzer goes off. It’s the worst noise and makes me dread doing laundry.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are happy to assist with your dryer not drying as expected. Drying times will vary based on the size of the load, the type of fabric, the wetness of the clothes, and even the cycle selected. There is really not a standard dry time unless you use a Timed Dry cycle.
