This dryer, and an accompanying Electrolux front-load washer, have been in our home for about a month now.  We made the purchase based upon a recommendation made by a near-by appliance sales AND MAINTENANCE shop.  We trust their comments regarding reliability, since they are the ones who will be servicing that which they recommend.  The dryer has, thus far, proven faultless.  We look forward to many more years of that kind of service.
