    Perfect dryer.

    More than good. This is the one if you're looking for a dryer.

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Dryer works like it should

    2 weeks in no problems, like the anti wrinkle features. Both the intermittent running and the steam feature. Otherwise it's a dryer it drys things, controls are fairly simple and self explanatory.
