- A: AnswerHello. This dryer comes with the fill hose and Y adapter needed when using the Steam feature. You will need to purchase a power cord to hook-up and the dryer ductwork. Hope this helps. Geoff@GEA

- A: AnswerHi there - thank you so much for reaching out to us about this! While a dryer rack accessory does not come with the unit, there is a compatible model available for purchase as an added accessory. The part number for that optional drying rack is WE02X29449. We hope this is insightful! Connect with again if you have any other questions - we're glad to help. All the best, Kelsey@GEA

- A: AnswerKind of. When washer link is selected, for example, you select bedding on the washer, the dryer will automatically be set to bedding. So with washer link selected, whatever setting you use on the washer will be automatically set on the dryer. I hope that makes sense.

New GE Dryer
We had some issues with the initial delivery of the dryer being delivered broken. So for over a week we had the washer, but no dryer. Everyone at Best Buy’s provided excellent customer service as far as apologizing and trying to get us rescheduled for delivery of a new dryer as soon as the next delivery could be made, but the fact that the dryer was delivered to us broken was a bummer. We were supposed to be hearing from the managers after the delivery but we haven’t heard from them yet. So far we like the dryer but I have had to add time to the cycles a few times because the clothes are still damp. It may have to do with the fact that the dryer uses steam on some of the cycles- and we will have to learn which cycles are best for what we are needing don but it’s a very nice dryer and it fluffs the towels for you, which was unexpected by nice! It’s very efficient, quiet and allows us to do more laundry in a much shorter amount of time. This dryer also has a wifi feature that I don’t need, but love that I have it! It sends messages a few minutes before the cycle ends, once I is completed and again 30 minutes after the cycle ends. So for someone like me who gets distracted working on other things and ends up forgetting clothes- that won’t be an issue. The app also allows you to start and stop the dryer. I also love the reminder features. This is a wonderful appliance so far. The only reason I gave it 4/5 stars was due to the delivery issues, but it’s helping my family stay caught up on laundry and that is what’s most important!

GE Steam dryer- the right decision.
After reviewing several larger capacity washer and dryers and ended up purchasing the GE Power Steam dryer. This dryers efficiency took some getting use to.( my old one was 16th a old) It dries in a timely manner. I love the power steam dewrinkle mode to get out the tough wrinkles. I have yet to explore all the different drying features this has to offer. One of the perks is that it does connect with my phone to tell me when the laundry is done. I guess done are the days of forgetting laundry! Overall I am very happy with this purchase. It came in at a good price point for us for the features it had. We also went with the dark blue- which compliments our house.
