I purchased a Whirlpool Electric Dryer, and the sales people at Best Buy told me that if I did not purchase a "new" dryer vent, and power cord, the delivery folks would not install the dryer. We have minimal space behind the dryer, so my husband had recently purchased, and installed a specially sized dryer vent. I explained all this to the sales folks, but they insisted, so I bought it. Well, when the delivery folks took a look at the existing dryer vent, and compared it to the one I was forced to buy, they told me that the new vent would not fit, and had absolutely no problem usind the dryer vent we already had. I ended up returning the one I was forced to buy. This experience was irritating to say the least.
This electric dryer features an AccuDry sensor that monitors temperature and moisture levels to ensure proper drying results. The Wrinkle Shield option helps prevent wrinkles to save you time spent ironing.
My old dryer (a 19 year old GE) finally just stopped working, so I needed to buy a new one. I am limited on the size I can purchase as space is an issue. I also did not want to purchase one of those dryers that had so many features, I wouldn't even use them all. Also, the more features, the more things that can break. Anyway, this dryer works perfectly, and just the way I need it to. If I had to pick something that I was not so happy about, it would be that the dryer is a little bit loud, but that is solved by closing the laundry room door. The heat during each setting is perfect, and the Wrinkle Shield option works beautifully. And, yes, you can fit a queen sized comforter in it easily. The only reason for the "Good" rating was because of the noise (not vibration) level. Other than that, the rating would have been "excellent.
What's great about it: I like that this dryer does not have a lot of "bells & whistles" on it.
What's not so great: Not as "quiet" as I would have liked.
