A: 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
A: Hello Nancy! We appreciate your question. This is not a vent-less dryer. This unit must be vented to the outdoors.

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.

Laundry success!
I bought the stackable kit washer and dryer. I found them to be VERY easy to use and VERY well built. I first bought the higher end model with internet connectivity and found that system to work well for my home application. One months later I bought the more stripped down version for my guest house and ran about 30 loads of bedding and such through it and was equally impressed. It doesn’t take the large amount of laundry soap like the other one but that was what we needed in that area anyway. We fill detergent from load to load.

Wonderful Dryer from GE
We replaced our washer and dryer with a GE set, so we have the matching washer. The dryer is exceptional. While the dryer we just replaced was a modern dryer, it did't do the one thing a dryer should do well, which is dry clothes. Not so with the GE 7.8 CuFt dryer. It dries our clothes in half the time of our previous dryer. And it's much quieter while doing a better job. We can also dry larger loads of laundry, which is great and will save electricity. All in all, we're very pleased with this dryer from GE. It's well made, looks great and should provide years of excellent clothes drying service.
