So nice to have a new dryer!
I love the new appliances (washer & dryer). They’ve really changed our laundry game now that we have two little ones and so much more tiny-sized laundry.

    Replaced an old dryer with this GE Dryer to match our new washer and works better than we expected. Simple controls use various settings easy to use and understand.

      Great dryer for our needs. The de wrinkle option for work shirts is great! Have a protective mat as I keep the dirty laundry basket on top (no need for that picture). Super loud signal when I first tested it out. That was turned off. Kind of cheap lint trap.

          Logy dryer has a great design. I always look for the door hinges because that’s where they seem to always fail for me. I also like that there’s not a lot of bells and whistles. It does the job and it does the job well which is what we all need at the end of the day. Thank you for the design features in this machine. Also the price, but it was not too bad either.

              Nice Large Capacity Dryer
              Was looking for a basic Dryer without all the fancy electronic controls. Nice Large capacity dryer. My first load was my king size comforter.. Did a great job, but some of the settings take a while.

                I love my new dryer.
                We love it . I like the looks of it and the ease of use and size also this one has a great higne on the door which was a big selling point for me Thank you for giving this detail attention it was a selling point for me. When I can afford it I will get the washer to match this brand.

                  Horrible lint screen design.
                  I bought this dryer in July 2022, I never get lint in the lint catcher. It bypasses the lint screen and accumulates in the vent. The design won’t even let me get my vacuum hose in there to clean it up. It needs to be redesigned so it don’t catch fire.

                  Good morning- Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on your GE Appliances dryer. We are so sorry to hear that lint is getting trapped inside the vent. This is not the quality that we expect here at GE Appliances, and we will make sure to pass this on to our Product Design and Quality Control Teams. Thanks again for your review. -Devin@GEA

                        Works very well for now.
                        My preliminary opinion of this is it works very well. I received it in good condition and it was installed by the seller 's agent.

                        Nice dryer -
                        nice large interior - don't love the way the duals turn to make the selections and I wish the door went down instead of opening like a door - other than that great dryer!

                          This dryer has easy to use selection features. It does the job nicely for a 1 to 2 person household based on its capacity.

                            Replaced washer out of necessity. Bought the matching dryer because it looked so nice sitting next to the washer in the store! Love the extended tumble feature, the adjustable volume buzzer and the interior light! Big enough to dry king size comforter without wrinkles.

                                I love it! It is large and beautiful. I love all the features and settings. I did not want anything digital or smart because smart is generally a headache, and it makes you feel dumb. I got just what I wanted, and it is perfect!

                                        3 break downs in 4 years paint flaking off door
                                        Bought with new construction home. Warranty service call in 1st year, last year it broke, and now the belt broke. Also, the paint is flaking off the inside door. Quality is lacking bigtime. Quite disappointed and will shop another brand when the time comes.

                                          Can’t get consistent settings
                                          Each time you want to dry a load and leverage some kind of ‘efficient’ way to turn things off when dry, you roll the dice. The knob used for settings does not ‘click’ at a setting to quit when dry. Instead it’s a large hard to turn knob with settings you can point to. You will invariably set the knob to a setting to a different level of dry each time you do a load. I wish they had a setting that just consistently stopped drying when the clothes were dry. Period. I have tried to use optimum dry but the dryer runs way too long. Even if you find a good setting you are comfortable with, the knob acts like a timer and you’ll have to guess again next load. Had I known this I would not have purchased the machine. I like to not need to think much about laundry, I prefer a set it and forget it approach to the mundane. On another grrr moment, is the door, it does not open 180 degrees. Count on the door being in your way. The door is also hard to stay shut, you will need to slam it or give it a good push. One more grrrrr. Is the lint filter. It clumsily needs to be pulled out and clumsily put back into a slot. It will require you to take an extra moment or two and both hands to clean out what used to be a quick swipe for me with my older dryer, may she Rest In Peace. One more grr

                                            Must purchase part to reverse door
                                            The dryer works as expected- it dries my clothes. However, specifications say that the door is reversible. This can only be done if you purchase a second door latch. The door latch that comes with the dryer cannot be removed and moved to its proper place. GE should either provide 2 door latches (one in each possible spot needed) or provide it loose in the install packet so that the end consumer can decide which spot it should go. It snaps in place.

                                              So far this dryer works as it should had a little issue installing, tight spaces in a mobile home! Has to buy a new gas line for it cause my other one the gas connection was on the opposite side!

                                                Love GE
                                                I had a older GE and loved it. It was over 15 yrs old and finally gave out. This one is perfect! Same features as old but with extended tumble. Thank you so much for keeping the light when opening dryer door. A lot of my friends have purchased other brands and complain about missing that feature. Only small complaint I have is, I have to really push door closed. Maybe as time goes on it will loosen up.

It has a HUGE drying drum for winter comforters and couch blankets and it isn't taking up a ton of space on my back porch! It's just PERFECT!! And I did a lot of online research before buying plus had to see it for myself in-store.

                                                          A quarter inch wide belt to transfer the motors energy to a large drum containing several pounds (kilos) of damp clothing? Poor engineering skills or corporate greed. Either way this kind shoddy build in todays products is rampant and disappointing. Everything on the marketplace is ripe for a disruptive replacement. Consumers everywhere deserve better.
