Product review (3 stars): Good dryer, but
This is my third compact dryer that I have purchased. The first one worked great,  bought it at the same time as I bought the washer of the same size. It worked great for awhile until it would run for a little while and shut off, then after a bit it would do the same thing. I tried to figure out how to fix it but not really having the time not to mention the inclination to do this sort of thing I purchased another one. Aside from the slight skunk smell it worked great as well. I attributed the smell to living semi-rural and we get those critters occasionally, but after nine months the dryer started doing the same thing. Again in the interest of time and talent I purchased yet another compact dryer. This one smells as if the skunks living in it and my clothes reek worse. We thought it was the soap, changed it to no avail. Next we changed the softener sheets, still pew. In the mean time I decided to try my luck at dryer repairmanship and dismantled the first dryer looking for the allusive "thermostat " that was the alleged culprit of the malfunctions, according to the repair sites I found. I could not find anything even remotely similar to the pic on the parts site but did find a broken blower belt hiding behind the drum support. In my "aha" moment I searched in vane for this part. I have yet to find it but in the hunt I did find that my wife and I are not insane and it is indeed the dryer that stinks. I have not contacted anyone yet about this problem but I will and hopefully find a belt in the process.
