It collects lint/dog hair off clothing beautifully. Sometimes it seems like it doesn't completely dry clothing but I think I just haven't figured out the right settings yet. I put too much in at a time but when I change settings to towels/bulky for big loads I have no issue. The light in the dryer is a nice feature. This is my first dryer/washer purchase and I love them. They do the job and were cheap. Definitely recommend if you just need the basics.
