It is too soon to tell how well this dryer will perform long term. I do wish it was a little quieter during operation as my last dryer was 9 years old and I expected it to be quieter than the old one. It looks really nice and it seems to have ample space to handle large loads. Will update review after more use. Keep in mind that this dryer will need to have a water line connected to it so that the steam options on the dryer can be used. My washer and dryer are separated by the furnace so it's not possible for me to use these features as it would require major modifications in my laundry room.
