It's only been a few weeks. Surprisingly, the preprogrammed cycles don't completely dry a load of laundry. Found several damp spots when I would pull the laundry from the dryer. The machine also doesn't allow you to start the pre-programmed cycle over again because the sensor will automatically turn it off since it doesn't detect a certain level of moisture. So I had to use a manual speed cycle to finish the job. I now automatically select "more dry" with all the drying cycles to add time, which seems to eliminate those damp spots within the load. Other than that, not any better than my previous dryer (another brand). It is bigger though.
