Customer Ratings & Reviews

Even though I was shopping primarily for a budget price, this dryer has more functions than higher priced models. It has a large capacity and can be set to a variety of dryness levels, or timed dry. And if I have to run it and leave the wrinkle prevent function keeps the clothes from clumping and wrinkling until I can empty it. This was a great purchase.

We purchased this dryer with the matching washing machine and we love it. It is huge! And, it does what we ask the dryer to do - it dries clothes. It does so really well, quietly and efficiently. The only downside is that it doesn't have an interior light. Not a real biggie for us so it doesn't downgrade the score... I would buy this again!

We purchased this dryer after our old gas dryer stopped working. After having it for about a year, here are my thoughts: PROS I am still very impressed with how quickly it dries clothes! Where the previous dryer took about twice as long to dry a full load as our washer took to wash a load, this dryer speedily dries a load even FASTER than the wash cycle. Maybe all dryers are just that efficient now and our washer is out-dated; I am not sure. But I am thoroughly impressed every time I use it. The wrinkle release feature is also nice; I like to fold the clothes as soon as the dryer completes so that the clothes don't sit in there and get wrinkled. This feature allows you to leave it in there for an additional couple of hours after the drying is done; it will tumble and add heat every few minutes to keep the clothes from settling down and getting wrinkly. Perfect for when I can't get to the folding right away. The lint trap is also in a convenient place - right inside the door. It also won't let you start a new load until you have checked the lint trap to make sure it is empty. Helpful for me since I forget often. It is very quiet when it runs, compared to our last dryer. We have a small laundry room right nest to a number of bedrooms, and my kids say they can only hear it slightly now when it runs at night while they are trying to sleep. CONS My biggest complaint about the dryer is the location of the front door. Our previous dryer door was tall enough that you could leave a laundry basket on the floor and still open the door - convenient to unload the clothes directly from the dryer into the laundry baskets by scooping the clothes out. Because this door on this dryer is mounted lower, the door opens and hits a basket in front of the swinging door. This means that you have to open the door wide, then put the basket in front of the opening in order to scoop out the clothes. Then you have to move the now full basket out of they way in order to close the door again. Inconvenient for our small little laundry room. I suppose you could purchase one of those dryer bases with a drawer to put under it to alleviate this problem - it would also make it easier to load an unload since you don't have to bend down so far. But we don't want to spend another $200 or so just for that. The other complaint I have is just a manufacturer's defect; it allows a small bit of a gas smell out of the dryer when not in use. Not enough to be dangerous, just a little whiff of gas. and it doesn't occur super often, just every once in a while. We had the hookup checked by a professional to make sure we didn't have any gas leak - and it was not anything with the line, just something inside the dryer itself. Its not dangerous, just kind of an annoyance. SUMMARY Overall, I give it 4 stars for its efficiency and quietness. If its door was higher, it would be perfect. A very good purchase at the price we paid for it. A simple machine that does its job well. I'd buy it again.

I just got this dryer installed couple days and have put it through a few loads of laundry to dry. Tried the moisture sensor feature for the first 3 loads but by the end of each cycle, the clothes were still noticeably damp. So decided to just stick with the timed dryer cycles which worked like a charm. Here is the list of pros and cons for me. Pros: - quieter than my previous 10-year old Maytag which was a work horse but definitely louder than this Samsung. - dries clothes efficiently as it should. - big load capacity - the door is quite tall so you can toss in more clothes at a time. - convenient location for lint catcher Cons: - moister sensor feature is somewhat of a gimmick; even at the highest setting, it didn't detect that my clothes were still damp - it plays a little music after each load of laundry is complete. Luckily my dryer is installed in the basement but if it were installed on the first or second floor, I can see it being annoying In the end, it's a good dryer that will hopefully last us many years. I must also add that the third-party installers Bestbuy used were very professional and did a good job with the installation.

Washed towels and put them in dryer under the sensing... came back home and towels were dry. Not exactly sure how long it took. Pretty quiet. Nice big size. And easy to use. Look forward to trying the other features.

This is a great dryer for the money with my experience. My dad needed a new dryer and he's not one for fancy appliances but has always had Samsung. We have had it for about 2 months and it's been a great dryer. No issues with the auto sensor like other reviews state, the clothes are always dry when we use this setting. The song at the end of each cycle is very long, but the dryer is in our basement so we never hear it anyways.I like that the door can be switched to either side. In my opinion it's a great dryer, well built, and perfect for someone that just wants a simple dryer with the basic settings such as auto sense, wrinkle release, delicate and timed dry.

I am happy with the size of the washer and the job it does on my families laundry.It gives me several options for temperature and water level.I spins the clothes dry enough that I don't have to wait to long for my dryer to finish the job.

I've had this dryer since mid February, and so far am happy with my purchase. It drys relatively quickly. The drum size isn't the largest out on the market, but is big enough to fit a king sized comforter. The only feature I wish it had was a screen to display the drying time. Overall, I am happy with purchase and it didn't break the bank.

It sings!! Love the sounds this machine makes. The low heat setting is great for delicates I would never dare dry before. Linens & towels dry very quickly. Overall, exceptional machine for the price.

This Dryer works amazing! It is quiet and very quick. It holds a ton of clothes also!

Has a ton of room. Drys quickly. Only downside is the silly song it plays when clothes are finished. I wish I could turn it off.

This dryer works well. It is quiet, and gets the job done. Sometimes if you try to do a quick dry it may not be totally dry but it's still good. Plus, it plays a nice little song for you rather than a loud buzzer to let you know that the cycle has finished. Plus it looks really nice, I love that the the lint trapper has a cover so all the excess lint and dirt doesn't fling all over the place when you pull it out to dump it before reuse. Pretty good product.

Dryer is easy to use, and a lot less nosier than my last Sears dryer. Things come out less wringed because it has moister setting.

Fantastic dryer. Does the job and not very noisy. Happy with the purchase

We required a smaller area for installation of the Samsung - 7.2 Cu. Ft. 8-Cycle Gas Dryer - White and this dryer really fits the bill. We also enjoy the quietness and ease of operation plus the sophisticated electronics, especially the moisture sensor function. We purchased the gas model and it dries cloths super fast. My wife loves it!

Samsung dryer beats my three year old dryer hands down. Easy to use, beautiful looking machine. Quiet, and efficient. Love it, the price was lower than expected, however the quality was exceptional. As a result I replaced my washer two weeks later. They are a formidable pair.

Easy to use with simple settings. No need to read the manual if you've used a dryer before. It's extremely quiet for a dryer as well.

We had to return the first dryer bc it stopped drying our clothes after the 2 wk. Once we got our new dryer, we havent had any problems with it. It does not have a light in the dryer so if that is something you are looking for, this one doesnt have it. This dryer is quick and actually drys the clothes!

Easy to program. Not a lot of buttons. Drys clothes very well on normal setting.

I love my new dryer. Love that it is very quiet and love the options on it.
