    I don’t have it. Inept installers (Tyler & useless sidekick) couldn’t install it left my other dryer in pieces on the floor, broke a track, drove away and cancelled my order. Best Buy has been no help since. I am pursuing this.

    The dryer is massive and being able to dry larger loads means that I have fewer loads of laundry to do. It has useful features including a steam setting to help avoid wrinkles. That feature does include the need for an extra installation kit to make sure it runs correctly. Don’t forget to include it when ordering this dryer. So far my family and I really like it. It looks nice and gets the job done and didn’t break the bank. It’s easy to use and has enough settings to dry clothes quickly and efficiently.

    This dryer has a very large capacity. It dries very efficiently and is also very quiet. We are very pleased with it. We thought that the Insignia Dryer we purchased was quite a bargain considering its capacity, features and ratings.

    I was a little hesitant to buy a store brand, but my dryer went out unexpectedly so I needed something reasonably priced and in stock. This dryer is really nice. It’s huge and does a great job of quickly drying laundry. The only downside is how low it is, so I’m thinking about getting the pedestal to raise it up.

    Very nice machine for the price. I like the different settings, and it dries everything very well. My only critique is sometimes it thinks the clothes are dry before the cycle finishes, and it’ll auto stop. But most of the time when it does this, the clothes are still damp, so I set it to a time dry cycle to get them dry.

    This dryer is pretty great. I put in wet clothes and they come out very dry. It was easy enough to install myself. And my wife likes it. It is also much quieter than the Samsung that it replaced when the heating coil went out.

    Excellent Dryer when it works

    This dryer has stopped working and had to have a technician out to replace the system board 5 times due ‘C9’ error displays, it stops turning on, then eventually turns on by itself without heat, & only stops when you unplug the power cord from the wall. I paid for coverage, and having it replaced. This model was on clearance for a very long time, but thankfully, there’s no longer being sold. It’s an excellent dryer when it works. 8 ft.³ can dry a lot of clothes in about two hours and it’s pretty quiet while running.

    I chose insignia because I have many of their other products and have been happy with their performance. This machine is yet another great product from the company. It has so many settings, it's quiet and the black tint makes it sleek looking. It even comes with a steam option that I am looking forward to trying when I buy clothes that need it.

    The product itself worked very well for 8 months. However a few weeks ago it malfunctioned. It’s still under manufacturer warranty so I contacted Insignia. 2 weeks ago. I am still waiting to be scheduled for repair. I’ve spoken with 4 different people there, each time having to begin the process all over again. If you live in a rural area good luck getting someone out to check out your Insignia appliance. I would have given 4 stars, even with the malfunction if the customer service and repair had been acceptable. I’ve worked in service before. If you don’t have a tech to service the area where repair is needed you replace the product. Very simple. Unfortunately that is not the case with this company. I’m spending another evening at the laundromat when I have a brand new, expensive dryer at home.

    We love this dryer. Easy installation, the water was so easy to hook up. We got a pedestal with our dryer. No more bending to throw clothes in and take out. I also managed to get this on an open box deal which got me huge savings. Highly recommended. We plan on getting the matching washer.

    I was having a hard time deciding which set to get. I knew I wanted a front loading set but after reading about all of them I chose these and I couldn’t be happier. They are so quiet and there is lots of settings and easy to use. I love them
