    Out with the Old in with the New

    This dryer replaced a 10 year old LG that quit on us. We really like the size and digital controls. The LG had manual timer knob which was starting to wear out. It's also much quieter than the old dryer which had developed a squeak. As far as drying speed goes, my wife says this one is faster than the old one. The wifi features are somewhat disappointing. The app does notify us when the drying cycle is nearing completion and when it finishes. However, I was sort of expecting to be able to make changes from the app(start, stop, change cycle, change heat) but in actuality the only thing you can do is view the current cycle, and stop it. You can set up a delayed start on the dryer and then as long as the door isn't opened, start it later from the app. I understand the safety reasons behind these decisions, but I don't see when we would ever need to delay the dryer and start it later remotely. I would maybe dock half a star for not being able to change the heat level or tumble speed from the app, though I don't know if any other dryer offers that either. I would also note that there was a small dent on the back of it, that I didn't notice until I got it home which is an hour away from the store. This would be more of a Best Buy issue than a GE issue. I didn't return it because of the hassle, and it doesn't seem to affect the performance but it's disappointing none the less. On the plus side there was an energy star rebate for this dryer which will offset the costs a little. Time will tell how long it lasts but it feels like a solid product.

    Spacious, Quiet, and Easy to Use

    I’ve been using this product for several days, and I’m very satisfied with its performance. The setup was quick and easy, and it worked exactly as expected right out of the box. The sound quality is clear and well-balanced, with crisp highs and solid bass. It’s comfortable to wear for extended periods, and the battery life has been reliable during daily use. The controls are intuitive, and the overall build quality feels premium and durable. Overall, this product delivers a great user experience and performs consistently. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for quality, comfort, and dependable performance.

    Stackable, quiet

    Only this brand can stackable. My laundry room pretty small but lucky LG can fit in! Quiet, steam cycle, fast are my first choice. Due to the large capacity of the dryer, I chose to put the clothes into the dryer after two rounds of washing. My dryer is on top of the washing machine, only 5 feet of me still can reach the button. Good to buy!!

    Phone notifications are a game changer

    This dryer has been working out well for us. Clothes come out dry and ready to go without any issues. Just like the washer, I love that it connects to my phone so I can check how much time is left without walking over to the laundry room. The notifications are honestly one of the best features because I used to leave clothes sitting in there way longer than I should have. Now I get an alert and can actually fold them while they're still warm. Happy with the purchase.

Questions & Answers
  • The product description says that the power cord is NOT included. This can't be correct, is it? What all, if any, additonal ancillary parts need to purchased?

    Hi, Good question! We thank you for your interest in this dryer and would love to provide you with an answer. Most electric dryer power cords are sold separately to ensure that they comply with all state and local wiring codes. These codes can vary significantly from state to state, and even, city to city. Since it is not possible to anticipate the final destination of a dryer as it leaves the assembly line and install the proper cord, the local dealer usually provides the power cord. Vent kits will have to be purchased separately as well. We hope this helps! Have a great day. -Sylvia@GEA
