Samsung - 7.4 Cu. Ft. 11-Cycle Gas Dryer with Steam - White

When I bought our house, I did not expect to be replacing the dryer within 6 months. The dryer we had was not that old but we started having to run the clothes twice just to get them dry. Anyway, we came to Best Buy and found an excellent replacement. The dryer is slightly bigger inside and we found that we are doing less loads thus using less. There are settings for pretty much anything including the steam cycle. We have used the steam cycle plenty of times to take wrinkles out, etc. We have used the dryer for blankets and 2 quilts. I am amazed at how easy it drys them. The dryer is very easy to use and even has a freshen/clean cycle which works great. We have horses and my daughter uses the dryer weekly to dry the horse blankets and pads, etc. With ease. I would highly recommend this dryer to anyone with a mid size family.

It's nice having a larger capacity dryer, and especially nice that the lint filter is inside the machine, not on top, keeps everything cleaner. That being said, it seems that everything takes longer to dry in this new machine than in my old whirlpool. I'm trying to figure out workarounds but have often ended up with things not being dried completely if a sensor setting is not selected. This is the most frustrating thing about this dryer. I even use wool dryer balls but often end up with slightly damp clothes/other items. It seems that the sensor settings work the best. I havent tested to see if the dryer stops before the allotted time if the clothes dry more quickly. But overall I'm happy with the purchase, have only had the pair about a month. Larger capacity is nice but again you have to be careful to not overfill.

We bought this to replace a 17-year-old Maytag. The technological difference is ridiculous. We're still learning the many features and functions possible on this dryer. We have the washer that matches, though it is 2 years older, so maybe it "almost" matches. This dryer dries our clothing quietly and efficiently. As I said, there are so many settings, we are still working out which we like best, for the variety of different materials. I'm not certain if it's ready to dry clothing that shrinks if in the old school dryers. I'll have to find a shirt I'm willing to sacrifice if it shrinks during the drying process. Overall, we love this machine.

LOVE! was worried about not being able to change settings on some of the selections, was worried it would be to hot for some items. I tested on various items and was pleasantly surprised with the results. Dries fast but not over dry. I even threw all my lay flat sweaters in on delicate and they came out fine. Still trying to figure out how damp dry is 5 min and normal is 25 min??? I would have though it would be half. Haven't tried the steam function yet. Instead of a buzzer end signal it has a chime song. kinda quiet but I don't care about that.

I bought this dryer to replace a new dryer (different brand) that was defective. I didn't look it over too well because I missed the fact that there is NO air setting. I use an air setting with no heat a lot. I hang some clothing to air dry and like to put it in the dryer after to remove wrinkles and fluff, so the clothes are not stiff. This has a steam setting that I have not hooked up and really did not want. Also, if I put 1 or 2 items in to dry it has to be set for time dry or it doesn't dry them. I wish I would have checked it out better. Does dry my towels very well though.

This dryer is wonderful. It works great for big loads of clothes, and drys everything evenly and without any kind of dampness. I work in a hospital, and its nice to have a dryer than has a "steam clean" option, which quickly sanitizes your clothes. It also has a "dewrinkle" feature, which uses steam to dewrinkle your clothes. Great feature for those who do not like ironing. I was getting ready for work in the morning and realized how wrinkled my dress shirt had gotten. I threw it in the dryer on "dewrinkle" and by the time I got out of the shower it was wrinkle free and dry. Would highly recommend this product.

The dryer we got was horrible. It took 6 hours to dry a load of towels. Even when I used time dry instead of sensor dry, it took hours for even the smallest of loads. I read quite a few reviews with the same problem. I ended up drying for an hour, then letting the clothes air dry for the rest, but what's the point of having a dryer? Best buy scheduled to have a replacement here today because they are sure it was just a defective dryer. It is 4:30pm. My appointment time was 10am - 1pm. They still are not here.

I have continued to try different settings. I am now putting really small loads in dryer in the hopes that it doesn't take 3 plus hrs to dry a load. It continues to add time to initial eco setting as it tries to get clothes dry. So far not at all impressed with this unit. Plus it really knots up sheets! Got the matching washer and it does a good job. Why have a large capacity dryer if it can only handle very small loads to accomplish drying any clothes in 1 hr. Only upside so far is it looks nice!
