The dials are basic and make it very easy to understand.  While simple, the manual dials will likely last much longer and may be more durable than all the new touch screen models.  First thing we dried was a full load of towels.  Dry time was as expected at under an hour and towels came out dry.  I will say the dryer was louder than I expected so I would keep that in mind on where you install them and time of day you dry your laundry.  Added videos to capture the sound but it was much louder in person than how it appears in video.  So all in all, a good, but basic,  efficient set that will serve key dryer purpose (drying).  But don’t expect any bells and whistles.
