Rated 1 out of 5 by from Dryer DOES NOT dry properly. Not happy with this dryer at all. Bought a couple weeks ago. Clothes are not dry at all. After about 40 minutes I open the door clothes are cool to touch and damp. Metal pipe not a flex hose, swapped my circuit breaker to see if that was it. No luck. Vent outside not hot air blowing. Out of the 10 loads we've done, only got lucky with one that I could feel heat on the pipe. Even tried disconnecting the pipe to see if it would heat up. Still cool after 10 minutes. The side of the machine gets hot but not inside. Old dryer would feel the warmth on the clothes after only a few minutes. I've tried every single setting. This dryer just sucks. I would not recommend it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor quality I bought this dryer 13 months ago. The dryer glass shattered during a dry cycle. No support from GE since it's outside the 1 year warranty. Was expecting better quality and service from the company..won't be purchasing another GE appliance going forward

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Défaut de fabrication La sécheuse n'est pas utilisable. Un défaut de fabrication donne l'impression qu'il y a une boule de quille dans l'appareil. Je suis en attente de la pièce et de la réparation, sous garantie. Un remplacement rapide aurait été de mise.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good machine with unique features I am pleased with the GE laundry pair that I purchased. Easy to install and use, large drum size and ultra fresh vent system. I had no considered GE machines before but after owing them a few months now I’m happy with how they perform.

Hello - I have purchased this dryer and waiting for delivery. It shows in the instruction manual it is possible to vent out the side vs. out the back. However, would anyone know: Is a kit required to do this? Thank you.
