Customers are saying

Customers highly value the 7.4 Cu. Ft. Smart Electric Dryer's performance, ease of use, and quiet operation. Many appreciate its large capacity and the various features it offers. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the dryer door's sturdiness and the heating element's reliability. The positive feedback on performance and features outweighs the negative comments regarding the door and heating element.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Worst dryer. It takes forever to dry. To dry My bed sheets and pillow cases it takes over 4 hours!! It has a flimsy door, and I’m already having to have it serviced less than 2 years old.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with your dryer. If you have not already done so, we encourage you to check the vent pipe on the back of your dryer for any blockage or obstruction. Also check the vent cap on the outside of your home as a blockage in either location can cause long dry times like you've described. If this does not resolve the issue, we encourage you to send us a private message on one of our social channels (Facebook, Instagram) with your contact information, model and serial numbers and a copy of your review so we can research your situation further.

    The installers were too lazy, to place the dryer on the left where the vent came out of wall, instead they placed dryer on right side with long hose to wall.. dryer hose is creased and not drying efficiently.. they need to return and to it correctly

    The item arrived with a defect. The lid will not lock unless it is held down manually, and the spin cycle does not start automatically. I received the item through store delivery, and trying to get it returned or repaired has been a major hassle.
