I bought this compact dryer due to the narrow staircase leading into my basement. I researched for months and found this to have the best overall performance at an affordable price. I’ve had the dryer for a few weeks now and done a few dozen loads of laundry. It works well and does a great job. The only downside is that the ventless dryer does take a lot longer to dry a load and also the lint filter alert is sort of annoying. I always clean my lint screen, so I don’t need a constant alert, but I do understand why it’s there. I’m also quite tall so it’s low to the ground and I have to squat low to load/unload, but I have the pedestal on my list of products to purchase.
