Product review (5 stars): Great dryer to pair with the Haier portable washer!
I didn't need a vent for the dryer. The air coming out of it was room temperature. When it did start to get steamy, it meant the filter was full of lint. As soon as I cleaned the filter, the air immediately went back to room temperature.

After some experimenting, I found using the Timed Dry mode worked a lot faster than the default setting for some reason. Keeping the load smaller and keeping the lint filter clean helps too of course. I never filled it more than 3/4 full. The clothes need some space to tumble around you know.

With the buttons being on the bottom and constantly having to pull out the lint filter for cleaning, I do recommend sitting the dryer on top of something to boost its height. I purchased the Avanti Mounting Bracket shelf for this. The dryer is 60lbs so I'm waiting for a male friend to come help me lift the dryer onto the shelf. I can only pick up the dryer about 1 inch off the ground by myself. It's both the size of it and the weight of it that makes it challenging. No way can I lift it shoulder-height to get it onto the Avanti shelf on my own. My male friend came over and lifted onto the shelf without a problem. It's very sturdy on the shelf, even when running. Just put a hand on it when you open the door so it doesn't slide around too much. You have to jerk the door open pretty hard. That's the only reason it might move a little bit.

The lint on the filter can be brushed away with fingers. I used a paper towel to scrub the lint off the wool pad. I don't think I'll ever need to replace the pad as long as I regularly clean it this way. I've heard some people also used lint rollers to clean the pad.

I also bought the Haier portable washer and that is working well too!
The haier washer cycle is a lot faster than the haier dryer cycle. so if doing back-to-back loads, I started shoving wet clothes into the partially-dry ones in the dryer, just because the dryer can hold more than the washer.
