Comment:
I bought my dryer 2 years ago when I moved to a new house. It has been very reliable in spite of 3 different moves. Although the moisture control feature is not perfect, I can reliably stop the cycle for permapress and remove the items that need to be hung up damp, then continue cycle for rest of load. I read about some complaints with incomplete drying or long cycles. I had similar problem with mine (electric) when I moved into one of the 3 houses...it was solved when I had the outside vent (which was vertical through the roof) cleaned. No problems since. I love the stainless steel tub. It does great job on large and small loads.

Comment:
I do ALOT of laundry, and bought this set on a whim without doing my homework or researching the set. I love the washer and I love the different settings and the steam cycle on the dryer, but the problem is the sensor. It just leaves clothes too wet, and I can never set ANY load of clothes on one of the settings and have it do just one cycle and come out anywhere near dry. To do most loads of clothes, I had to customize a load for the hightest setting for 1 1/2 hours and that gets my loads dry. I've noticed that clothes in the front of the dryer dry differently than in the back of the dryer- the drum is so large which is good but it doesn't seem to have the ability to evenly dry the load. I would add that I don't overlead it at all, and have even weighed my loads after reading their recommendations thoroughly, and the correct sized load or less just won't dry on the sensor settings. It costs me alot more time to set loads three or four cycles to get things dry when I can't dry them on high. On the bright side, I got the blue color which I love, and I love the pedestals, I love the lights on the display and that the machine talks to me! But those fun things don't make up for it's poor drying performance.
