"Wanted an economical and efficient dryer that Consumer Reports would recommend and found this as one of three. Ironically, none of the really high priced dryers were among those three.
I got mine on special from Home Depot and only waited about a week for delivery. The metal vent duct didn't come with it, nor did the electrical chord or any kind of plug-in. This was due to an oversight of the sales person (I haven't bought a washer or dryer in about 15 years and she didn't ask what my plug-in situation was like), but it was a forgivable oversight. I called Home Depot and the people there were very apologetic, and got the additional parts out to me in less than 2 hours, installed them, and did it all with no additional charges.
For the dryer itself, I've read some of these reviews complaining about how long it takes to dry your clothes. I've done 6 loads since getting mine set-up, and I don't think anyone complaining is taking into consideration that they're putting in twice the amount of clothes in their new dryer as they are used to. The sensor is awesome, and works better than I expected. This dryer is extremely quiet, and the little chime alarm to notify you when your load is done is not only delightful, but you can turn it off if your dryer is close to your bedroom and you need some sleep. That was a big plus for me.
Additionally, Home Depot did a good thing with this review section, because even though I place credibility on Consumer Reports, the customer opinions get down to the nitty-gritty.
Thanks Home Depot....thanks Amana."
