Hi deal53- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for viewing our GE Series Dryers! Yes, the back of the dryer is flat. We encourage you to view the Quick Specs for a view of the back of the dryer and complete dimensions. 1" rear clearance is recommended: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=GTX33EASK_C3.pdf - Also, GE Appliances recommends the use of solid metal vent pipe, 4" in diameter, for adequate operation. 4" flexible metal venting may be used, but will increase drying time somewhat. GE Appliances does not recommend the use flexible, white, plastic vent pipe. This type of vent pipe can collapse and restrict the airflow, causing lint to build up inside the dryer. This build-up could cause the heaters to fail prematurely. We hope this is helpful. Thanks for checking with us!
