7.5 Total cu. ft. Electric FlexDry Dryer with Steam in Black Stainless

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung's FlexDry has been a great upgrade for my family. We have been very impressed by how quickly and thoroughly the clothes have dried in the main dryer. It’s also beautiful to look at. I’ve had so many comments on the attractive appearance. The top dryer with the air-drying rack has really been nice as well. So far we have been able to dry my wife’s suede skirt and a new nice blouse that normally would have been ruined in a standard dryer. Our old dryer did not hold nearly the capacity of the FlexDry, and since this machine is so efficient, I never have to worry about pulling out damp clothes at the end of the cycle. Our home used to be cluttered with items that we had washed but couldn’t dry with the full load. We are talking chairs, the counter, etc. But now, our FlexDry can handle any load and gets everything dried and ready to wear. The FlexDry is so easy to use that my kids are now even pitching in. We will see if that lasts but overall, I am very happy with this dryer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung FlexDry is great to use paired with the Samsung FlexWash. It is two machines in one! It has a small extra dedicated delicate dryer on top where you can lay sweaters and other items that you normally wouldn’t put in the tumbling dryer. Great for small delicates and I already dried some stuffed animals there for my twin toddlers when they got messy and wet. In addition to the one cubic foot top compartment, there is the bigger lower drum for your regular load that has 6.1 cubic feet. The FlexDryer is bigger than most dryers. It sure is bigger than my previous ten year old dryer.The black stainless-steel dryer (which has a finger print resistant finish) has a chrome trim, a blue LED display and a curved modern stylish look. It looks great in my laundry room. The FlexDryer pairs perfectly with the Samsung FlexWash. The small dryer on top of the FlexDryer is big enough for delicates like underwear, sweaters and I am using it mostly for small amounts of delicate laundry I want to quickly dry when my kids make messes. It is transparent so you can see the laundry in the small mess drying rack. It has its own separate set of buttons to operate the upper dryer and you can choose different. This top dryer is a life saver for this busy mom! The bottom dryer fits big loads of laundry and gives you a lot of different cycles to choose from. Depending on the cycle, you can also adjust the dry level, the temperature and the time manually. The steam feature is great so your laundry will have less wrinkles. The dryer can dry two loads at once so no need to wait for one load to be done when you have delicates to dry too. The displays for both dryers tell you exactly how much time is left in each cycle and a blinking indicator tells you which part of the cycle each load is on. The top and the bottom dryer play a song when the cycles are finished. I am really impressed by how fast the drying cycle on the bottom washer is. My laundry came out thoroughly dry in just thirty minutes. Overall I am really impressed by how dry and fluffy the laundry comes out of the machine no matter which cycle or which I am using. The top and the bottom dryer are very quiet. Another smart feature is that the FlexDry can be connected to the Smart Home app, available for Android 4.0 or higher, and iOS 8.0 or higher so you can see if your load is finished. The Samsung FlexDry is a great dryer and makes doing the laundry feel less like a chore! The FlexDry is a great appliance with the flexibility to dry a big load, a small load, or both at the same time. It is like having two machines in one! I highly recommend it!

Be warned the manufacturer warranty does not cover damage to the frame because it is not a part they replace, nor does the Home Depot appliance protection plan because it is not an electrical or mechanical issue. Believe it or not, they consider is cosmetic. The unit was inspected by me when delivered but the damage is not visible because it is underneath (see below). The damage most likely occurred in transit by a forklift or similar machine used to load or move the unit. The damage in the photo does not really reflect the depth of the dent because of the angle of the camera. However, when you turned the unit on it made an ear piercing screeching sound and the drum could not rotate. The best Home Depot would do is offer me a $500 credit to apply to a new dryer purchased through their store. Could you imagine? It did not matter to them that I had a brand new expensive dryer that does not work. Their reasoning, I had the washer and dryer installed by my contractor which voids their responsibility. Mind you, Home Depot failed to inform me that having my washer and dryer installed by a contractor voids their responsibility and even though I made that point they did not care hear it. Also, Home Depot subcontracts out for delivery if they are not installing the unit.

This is an amazing dryer. Not only can I dry my laundry as you would normally expect to do but you can also refresh clothes, wrinkle removal and every setting you can imagine. In addition, you have a second smaller dryer on top that you can dry things you don't want tumbling around such as sweaters and delicate items or hand made items. Both sections can be operated at the same time. Pretty cool. I have even used the upper dryer to dry my tennis shoes. The lower dryer had a ton of space and will handle a full load from the washer which i would expect but it is very efficient and I'm never waiting on the dryer. It finishes well before my washer completes the next load. The over all unit is much taller than my old unit so something to keep in mind is the height of this Dryer.

This 167 lb. appliance is the grand-daddy of energy saving, electrical dryers. The drum is so large that I can put 2 washed loads into it and it dries even the heaviest piece of clothing (jeans) in the allotted time. I've used the top dryer for sweaters and they dried without shrinking. It's lint collector collects even the smallest pieces of lint and it's easy to remove and clean out. I empty it after every load. This dryer even has an alarm to warn you if the lint collector gets clogged up. No more worries about fires now. I also like that its' controls are in the front of the dryer and light up in a pretty blue color. With all the controls it will take me a good month to figure out my favorite drying cycles. The instruction manual is very helpful for deciding which controls to select at first. Because the lower door is so close to the floor I put the washed clothes on to a small table and then push the clothes, etc. into the drum. I also use the top dryer for items such as pet sweaters and pet toys. Drying for an animal rescue involves drying a lot of pet clothing, blankets, toys, rugs and comforters, as well as towels and cleaning rags. Climbing up and down my basement stairs is exhausting for some of the elderly volunteers so I am going to relocate this dryer to my garage. I will also put it on a platform to help make loading the dryer easier on our backs. A sturdy step-stool will help us reach the top delicate dryer. Everyone loves this awesome, easy-to-use dryer. I definitely recommend this product.

This dryer has so many features, it has something for everyone. WHAT I LIKE: - I like the safety feature that the vent sensor provides. Even if you keep your dryer duct clean, you never know what might happen. I had a bird build a nest in mine (somehow) that completely blocked it. The dryer lets you know with an indicator icon. If the blockage is severe, the icon blinks and the dryer will shut itself off until the blockage is removed. You can also run this test manually any time you like. - The steam cycles are also unique and useful. The wrinkle away is great for people who have to wear scrubs to work. - The dryer also connects to wifi and can be controlled from your phone. - The delicate dryer on the top is really good for small items that may get lost in the big tumble dry area. Such as hair bands or baby socks. - Best of all the dryer works great. WHAT I DON'T LIKE SO MUCH: - The normal cycle defaults to Eco Dry. Eco Dry adds 30 minutes onto the cycle. I really just don't have time to use it. I have to turn eco dry off every time I turn on a cycle. I think this should be an option to turn on manually and NOT default. - I am not sure how well the "Steam Sanitize" function works. I looked everywhere to see what temperature this might steam at and I could not find a number. The user manual states that the hottest temperature is 126 degrees, but that is really not hot enough to sanitize. (Should be at least 175 degrees.) I cannot review exactly how effective it is because of this so I wouldn't count on the feature. - Lastly, the dryer is very large. It is much larger than normal washer and dryers. I have a picture side by side comparison attached.

The Samsung 7.5 Total Cubic Feet Electric Flexdry Dryer With Steam can be a little intimidating when you first see the control panel. After using the dryer for awhile you see that every part of the control panel serves a purpose and is easy to use. My wife is the one who mostly uses the dryer and she keeps the user manual close at hand so she can try different settings to get the best results for different items of clothing. A few of the things she likes is the lint filter because of the way it collects the lint and the way you empty the lint. She loves the delicate dryer on top. She says it is perfect for blouses, bras and specialty clothing. She also likes the height of the dryer, telling me that she doesn't have to bend to much to fill the machine. As far as set up and install time was about 20 minutes by the delivery company. There is a water line that gets hooked up to the rear of the dryer for the dryers steam cycles. We have had the dryer for a month now and all is great! The dryer is also quieter than our last machine.

Do you remember when the washer and dryer were the most boring appliances in the house? So much has changed in the last ten years or so. We've always had the basics for washers and dryers in our 33 years of marriage. My mother used to have front loading washers and high capacity dryers, but I've never paid much attention to features in the laundry room. But recently our old dryer starting having its third major issue in three years. First problems with the exhaust, then the motor quit, but finally the timer gave up and it would never turn off. When the opportunity came to get one of these fancy, full featured dryers I jumped at it. In hind sight, I should have consulted a bit more with my wife who does not particularly like a lot of bells and whistles, but thankfully my jump to high tech has worked out okay (this time). At first we didn't like all of the beeps and whistles, but we found out you can turn those noises off. There are a lot of controls and features, but 95% of the time you're just using the Normal settings, which are the default, so you just power the machine up and hit start. The de-wrinkle feature is very thorough, but seems to be a long cycle. However, the Refresh mode does a great job of de-wrinkling and is a shorter cycle. It seems strange having a water hose going into the dryer (made me cringe when I saw it), but the steam features are super handy. The power saving feature sounds promising. Anything that saves power is a worthwhile feature for a dryer, which is a very power hungry appliance in general. The coolest feature, though, turns out to be one I didn't think we'd use very often. The second dryer in the top of the unit just uses heated air circulation to dry items that can be problematic inside the drum. I was surprised to see the ladies take to the feature so well. Apparently it is perfect for brassieres, which they were hanging to dry due to issues with damaged clasps in the drum dryer, and also great for drying mittens and hats, . Who knew? Well, I didn't, but it is a hit in this house. I also need to mention that the delivery and set up was handled quickly and professionally by two gentlemen who really knew their trade. They had the right cord, hose connections, and type of vent to get the job done very quickly, including hauling away the old dryer. I don't think they were here even a half hour. They called ahead and were very polite and left no marks anywhere. That's the second great experience we've had with Home Depot appliance delivery.

The Samsung 7.5 Total cu. ft. Electric FlexDry Dryer with Steam in White is simply well worth your hard earned money. It dries extremely well. Has very easy to read controls. It saves you money drying your clothes the first time. It has a large capacity drum. You can dry your delicates with the top lid dryer. The most important feature for me is the steam dry function. No more wrinkles. I am a lazy guy who will never iron again thanks to this dryer. Big enough to handle your large loads. I like it so much I am now going to get a Samsung washer to match. Push button easy!
