I live in a VERY old house divided into apartments. My choices (besides going to the laundromat - blecchhh) were to pay for an expensive wiring job to bring 240V power into the unit or to find a 120V dryer.
I was thrilled to find this unit. It seemed it would fit the bill, but I couldn't be sure because nearly all the reviews were for the portable Spacemaker 120V model, not this one (the stationary model). If you're in that boat, let me lay your reservations to rest. This is the SAME dryer. The only functional difference is the silkscreening on the controls. This is LITERALLY the portable dryer, with the feet screwed out & flipped upside down (default exhaust direction also different, but the dryer is designed to accommodate several permutations & can even be changed in the field).
This dryer is certainly meeting my expectations. It does a good job, but understand that it can't change the laws of physics. The motor consumes about as much power as a "regular" dryer, leaving far less (with a 120V, 15A limit) to run the heating element. The user guide suggests drying times are about 3x a regular dryer. That seems right from my experience, but drying clothes at home, when it's convenient for ME, is far, far preferable to hitting the laundromat during their necessarily limited hours.
Expecting that the dryer would be relatively underpowered, I opted for a front-load washing machine. These typically spin clothes a LOT dryer than top loaders, so the drying times have been, on the whole, no longer than I experienced using more conventional machines (top load washer & a 240V dryer).
In fact, had I not bought a cutting edge washer, I'd think this dryer perfect. Alas, my washer has a variable delay feature - something I never had & wasn't actually looking for - but is it ever useful! It got me to thinking that I wish the dryer had one. That's the only negative I can think of.
This dryer is also very light & since the bottom is smooth and painted (i.e. it's the TOP in the portable model), the unit easily stacks on any flat surface (hmmm, like my washer). I just cut a rubber pad to fit under the dryer to keep it from skidding off during the washer spin cycle. Presto - domestic chore Nirvana.
In short, if you've got 240V, stick with a "regular" dryer, but this is a GREAT choice for all of us apartment & old house dwellers.
Yes, I recommend this product.
