Customers are saying
Customers are impressed with the drying speed, overall performance, and ease of use of the 7 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer with AutoDry Drying System. Many appreciate its quiet operation and good capacity, especially considering the price and size. However, some find the advanced features unnecessary and the cycle complete buzzer too loud. A few customers have also experienced issues with installation.

Terrible dryer. You will have problems.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only positive of this dryer is the hamper door. Run. Do not walk away from this dryer. The first one was delivered new and it did not work; so it was replaced. The second new machine also had issues, but after another service call (and new replacement parts), I had a new working machine. That said, the on/off button never worked - just push it and it would start no matter what it was pointed to. Within a couple months, the interior was completely rusted. I called the total tech team, they suggested I pay the deductible for them to come check it out. Then, about a month before having this dryer for two years, it just stopped drying clothes altogether. I paid the total tech fees, a service man came out, and nothing was done. We waited 2 weeks for new parts. The parts started being delivered to our house and we held onto them until the service person came back. Parts were replaced - tech confirmed it would work (without testing it) and left my house. No! It did not work. I called him on the phone and the tech was very belligerent with me; did not seem to care about his job or who he was representing. So I went to the store where I purchased the dryer and spoke w the store manager as well as the general manager. Since this machine had already had all the parts replaced more than once (they were wanting to exchange out the parts again!), I just wanted them to stand by their warranty and replace my defective item. Fast forward now almost two months. The defective dryer is still in my house. We are supposed to have a new dryer delivered tomorrow - but we will install ourselves bc now I have zero faith in the Best Buy installers.

A hit success
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I think it's excellent and it works fast and quick. I've been needing a dryer for some time to dry my children and my own clothes in max 2 rounds and it's been a success. I recommend it for those mama bears.

Spend more & buy a better one
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dryer, well, dries clothes. With 14 settings and 3 diff heat settings it sounds like it would do a lot, but not realIy. I find that of the 3 heat settings you have to have it on high if you you want your clothes really dry and warm and fresh. The middle heat setting seams more like low, so I haven’t even tried low yet. It works fine, but for $540 (tax and required parts not included) I wish I would have just paid $100-$200 more and gotten a better one. I would recommend this if it was on sale for under $400, then it would be a deal.
