This is a very simple dryer (I bought the gas model) with 1 dial for temperature control and 1 for time. There's very little noise insulation (as in zero) and the end of cycle buzzer is extremely annoying (which may be good or bad) so being able to isolate it in a separate room or garage is required. If I had the chance to do it again I'd move up one or two levels in the line to add some features. But to be completely honest it dries clothes which is all I really need.
