The dryer is fine, but beware if something breaks. Our dryer has been broken since February (just a year shy of when we bought it). The factory recommended repair company came to our apartment several times to install a seemingly simple belt replacement, but Haier kept sending the wrong part - we even sent them a photograph of the broken belt and to no avail. When it was finally determined that it was the wrong part (THREE TIMES) Haier finally decided that they would send us a refund for the entire dryer. from Amazon.com This dryer was everything we expected for 6 weeks. At that point it died. Haier sent out a repairman promptly, and the problem was a burned out circuit board. He said he would order the part. from Amazon.com I live in an apartment with a closet designed for a stacked washer/dryer unit. A stacked washer/dryer tends to be expensive and/or smaller so you can't wash heavy blankets. Instead I got a full size top loading Admiral Washing Machine from Home Depot for $275 and this portable dryer which I mounted over the full size washer for about the same price. I hang dry most of my clothes including my blankets but I needed a dryer to dewinkle my pants and shirts for about 5 minutes before I hang dry them. from Amazon.com I sell appliances for a living, so I know quite a lot about them. I bought one of the first little Haier washers 6 years ago, and ever since, I wished there was a matching dryer. Since my washer has held up so well all this time (never a problem and I use it LOTS), I decided to buy this dryer right away once I discovered it. from Amazon.com The Haier portable dryer is a good general purpose dryer. It runs on regular current, 120 volts. from Amazon.com I have a model of this I bought about a year ago--it looks slightly different than the one pictured here but has the same model number. That said, this dryer is GREAT. It does take a while to dry clothes, but I got it to go along with the haier portable washer, and it dries one load in the time it takes another load to wash when I use the power wash setting, so that's pretty good. However, the automatic settings really don't work that well--like a previous poster, I recommend using the timed dry options. from Amazon.com This was the final purchase to allow me to do laundry in my 600 sq. ft. San Francisco apartment. from Amazon.com March 18, 2009 I have owned now the Haier Washer and Haier Dryer now for 5 months and I still am incredibly happy with my purchase. Even with the very long drying times with the dryer I love not having to go down to the W&Ds in the apartments laundry room. from Amazon.com review: i live in an apartment with a closet designed for a stacked washer/dryer unit. from Shopping.com there is one other review for this dryer and in it they say it takes a long time for the clothes to dry... from Amazon.com
