What's great about it: Dries cloths quickly via the moisture sensor
What's not so great: Has a rather loud background hum.
So far, it working great. If it wasn't for the rather loud background hum and a little higher price than I expected, I would have given it five stars.
This product is or has... Big enough capacity for a comforter, All the cycles I need, All the settings I need
About me... Looking for energy savings, Budget Conscious
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Price, features
What's not so great: haven't come across anything as of yet.
Bought this to replace a dryer that was 47 years old! Let's see if the new can stand up to the old. Has great features for the price and so far even a full load of towels is fully dry on just one cycle. Very happy with it.
I would like to expand on the review regarding the installers. I agree the customer should have been made aware, that is definitely a communication failure one BBs part. Just FYI for anybody looking to upgrade a gas appliance though. None of the major retailers will tamper with existing gas lines (in my area anyway). That includes something as simple as adding a connector.

If you are replacing an older machine (in our case the dryer was 15-20yrs old) there may be an older style connector on your gas line. Best Buy installers do not replace/update gas line connectors. They left the uninstalled machine in our basement and informed us that we would have to find our own installer to take care of the connector....they would be happy to come back and finish the installation but wouldn't an installer capable of replacing the connector be capable of completing the install and saving me taking an additional day off work? Will likely be happy with the machine when I can get it installed and functioning. Very disappointed in the sales staff for not pre-warning of the potential for this situation (I did tell sales person how old my original dryer was and this did not seem to offer a red flag to him). I spoke with the department manager who apologized and will work to make future customers aware, but nothing he can do for me at this point. This will be the one and only appliance I purchase from Best Buy in my lifetime, it is worth it to me to spend more somewhere else and have truly professional installers who won't be thrown by a connector.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's not so great: No gas/propane conversion kit
The only problem is we live in the country; therefore we have propane. We were told at the store all whirlpools have a gas/propane conversion kit included. Gas guy could not find the kit so he had to go buy one to finish installing the dryer. EXTRA cost for the gas guys time and parts.... If you need to convert get the kit before you walk out of the store.
