When I moved from a house to an apartment, I had no choice but to buy a smaller dryer than I wanted. I have adjusted to needing to wash and dry smaller loads, and I have adjusted to a longer drying time. The energy efficiency more than makes up for a slightly  longer drying time.  Other small adjustments which have also helped drying time and energy efficiency are using dryer balls and switching to microfiber/cotton towels. Finally, I vacuum the lint from the space where the condenser fits when I rinse out the condenser once a month. At first, this seemed like a hassle compared with the big dryer I had before I moved, but honestly, once you do it once or twice, it's no big deal. I knew the dryer was compact and energy efficient when I bought it, but after the adjustments I made, I can now say that the clothes dry very well, and the dryer exceeded my expectations.
