Product review (4 stars): Amana NED4600YQ Dryer
As of this review this product costs $484.15.  Personally, I think I could find a dyer with the same no frills for less money elsewhere.  It's not a bad dryer by any means, but if I were looking for one to purchase in a bricks and mortar store, I would probably pass on this one.  Why?

1.)  The door is hinged on the side (right side).  I like dryer doors to be hinged on the bottom so that I can use the door to drag clothes out and have lying on it while I sort through them picking out what I want to fold up first.  With this dryer you either have to keep reaching inside to get the clothes or pull them all out at once and place somewhere to fold.  I have a tiny, and I mean tiny space to work and a dryer door hinged on the bottom is a big help to me. Also, with a dry door hinged on the side means you will have to be sure it can sit next to your washer and have the door open so that you can place clothes directly from the washer into the dryer without having to go over the top of the door into the dryer.  I think it's stupid to hinge a dryer door on the side and not the bottom, unless you use a wheelchair.  A door hinged on the side will certainly be easier for those in wheelchairs to access......maybe, I'm not really sure about that.

2.)  The door is hard to open and shut.  I have doubts that an elderly person, or someone with some types of physical problems could easily open and shut this dryer door.  I have to really yank on it for the catch to release, then I have to push it hard for it to shut close.

3.)  It has no buzzer to tell you when your load is finished drying.  Not that it's a big deal, but for the cost of this dryer I think they could have included a buzzer.  If I'm working on the computer for example, while I have a load drying, I would like very much to hear the buzzer so that I can get up and fold the clothes while they are still wrinkle-free or put another load into it.  Otherwise, I'll probably forget about it and they will stay in the dryer and compact under their own weight and wrinkle until I remember they're in there.....whenever that would be.

4.)  It would fit nicely into the space where the old dryer was if the metal vent hose that came with it was much, much shorter.  Right now, it's sitting about 2 feet from the wall because the metal hose is so incredibly long.  I eyeballed it this morning and with it unextended it's still at least 3 feet long.  My husband is either going to have to cut it down to size or else buy another one that will work.  I can't have the dryer way out from the wall just because the hose they supplied is too long.

THE DELIVERY PROCESS:

I was called two days before delivery by J.B. Hunt and asked a few questions such as: how many steps will the dryer have to be taken up, what day (choice of two) would work best for me, etc...  The person I spoke with was very nice.  The next day I got an automated call confirming delivery and a phone number to call if I needed to change it.  The day of delivery I got a call from the delivery man saying he would be there within the hour and they arrived about 20 minutes later.  My window for delivery was between 11:00 and 3:00 pm.  The truck pulled up around 1:00 pm, well within the window scheduled.

The delivery men (2) were very nice, but s-l-o-w.  I didn't think they would ever get the dryer put into place and the other one taken out to the garage.  And they wanted to chat, which I really don't care to do.  Also, they couldn't attach the dryer vent hose to the standard-sized vent hole saying the hose was too large to fit into the vent hole, and that they weren't authorized to make such adjustments (???!).  As far as the "installation process" is concerned, that was just delivering the dryer, plugging in to the wall outlet and turning it on for a few seconds to see if it would heat up, which it did.  And they left some black greasy marks on the top of it which they didn't bother to wipe off.  Later, I discovered that the dryer door will not stay open so the feet of the dryer will have to be adjusted to make it stay open so I can put wet clothes in, and take the dry clothes out without having to wrestle the door open with my knee.  It's very annoying right now and I think they should have checked for that.  I know I don't want them coming back so I'll fix it myself.  To their credit, they were very careful about not banging the dryers against the walls while taking them in and out of the house, and they were careful not to mar the floors by placing a mat down for protection.

OVERALL: I'm not exactly thrilled with the dryer, (or my delivery experience) and can't really use it right now since the vent hose needs to be connected and the door won't stay open on it's own.  Why they (J. B. Hunt delivery) don't carry different lengths or sizes of vent hoses, or take a level to ensure the dyer is sitting properly is unknown.  I do like the "no bells and whistles" aspect of this dryer, except I wish it had a buzzer.  It's very basic, and not hard at all to figure out how to use, but I have no idea how long to expect it to last and I think it costs too much.  My old Kenmore was still going strong after 17+ years and I'm keeping it in case this new one fritzes out. I did dry a load of towels and just let the dryer vent inside the house because I really wanted to know how good it worked.  It dried them just fine.

UPDATE 10.25.14 - I have used this dryer several times a week and it has held up very well.  The door problem was fixed by my husband and remains open until shut.  I have increased the star level to 4.
