Product review (5 stars): Changed my life!
Changed my life! I'm a working mom with four kids and being able to have laundry finished in one go overnight or while I am at work enables me to keep up with the laundry like never before. For me this machine is a dream! There is a bit more lint on the clothes at the end of the cycle since this is a condenser dryer, not a forced air one. But nothing a lint roller won't easily take care of, and only noticeable on dark clothes. Fully worth the cost of keeping a lint roller handy. It does about the same size loads as my prior 4.3 cu. ft. LG units, Frigidaire units, and Whirlpool units. My LG dryer always took the max time (99) minutes, and usually more to dry our clothes (I only use low unless it's towels). Our Frigidaire units dried faster, but didn't get the clothes as clean, so we swapped them out of our prior home/rental unit and took back our LG units, before buying this one. Now we will sell whichever set fetches the most $ and use this all in one, and probably get a second soon, since space is not an issue for us. This unit provides that fantastic LG cleaning without having to switch the load to the dryer. For me it's absolutely fantastic. The clothes don't come out with that warm, super dry feeling of conventional dryers, but they also don't come out staticky. The trade off of having to deal with the lint is completely worth it for me, because I really need cycles to finish while at work and overnight. I highly recommend this machine if you need a full cycle without intervention, don't have 220V or a vent, or have limited space. It's only been a week, but I absolutely adore this machine.
