Prone to breakdowns

Kaylee 8/2/2024

This gas dryer came with purchase of my new build home in April 2019. It's about a 4 star dryer in terms of actual functions, noise, etc. It's now 5 years later and it has broken twice on me this year. Once, I had it repaired by a certified repairman and it was a bad roller. This time it's broken, I'm just replacing it because I'm tired of putting good money after bad with this thing. It gets louder as it ages. I've found that the best cycle is the timed 60 minute dry time. It takes about 50 mins to dry an average load.

Absolutely Awful

Scott S 2/24/2023

As has been noted by other reviewers, there are multiple flaws with this dryer. I believe them to be design flaws with the model itself, and not specific to any individual unit:1) The auto setting never drys after a single load. At a minimum, it takes two cycles on auto.2) On normal temp, the dryer burns clothing and leaves burnt "waffle" marks matching the vent inside the drum. In addition to burning and leaving waffle marks I have experienced melted fabric, torn fabric, and more traditional burn marks. This has happened on both synthetic and non-synthetic fabrics. It has happened to clothing, comforters, blankets, pillow cases, etc. Normal stuff.3) The dryer sounds like it has boulders inside. In my case, the rollers have been replaced and it sounds just as bad. It is unbelievably noisy. Service techs were astonished at how noisy it still was even after the rollers were replaced.As is typical of other reviews, I have had the unit serviced multiple times and the issues persist. I have also experienced the same as others, most service technicians will make every attempt to blame the problems on your use of the dryer, or they will tell you it's because you haven't cleaned the vent. My vent was clean, and my usage of the dryer was in line with the instruction manual.This is an absolutely terrible product that should be recalled. I am disgusted and will never purchase another Electrolux appliance of any sort.I believe these are discontinued, but if you come across one somewhere I hope this review causes you to look elsewhere.

Dries fine but the lint catcher is poor design.

Kevin 23 5/30/2021

Bought this dryer in Dec. 2020 the lint catcher has been pulled out of its slot 3 times now while the dryer is running. Had to have a repair man come and take dryer apart to get clothes that were stuck in the fan that is in under the lint catcher. Also when this happens the lint catcher gets thrown all around the inside of the dryer causing loud banging. I will be contacting Electrolux.

Happily surprised

Dadasauruswrex 2/28/2021

We purchased this because our 3 year old competitor brand finally could not be repaired. This dryer does not have all the settings that our old one has. This is a good thing. We now are drying clothes before the washer is done. The lint trap is large and easy to clean. I accredit part of the dryers efficiency to the large lint trap and its ability to move air through the drum. Would recommend.

Not great

liorab 2/18/2021

When our dryer was delivered, it wouldn't heat.. The igniter was bad. It took 2 weeks to fix. Upon one of the first loads dried, I found a hoodie had been ruined. The metal beads at the end of the hoodie string had gotten caught in the lint trap and RIPPED, TORN from the string. Since then, another hoodie string was caught, but thankfully not torn, only pulled out so that I have to restring it. Also, while I appreciate that the power button isn't as touchy as the one on the washer, it is too hard to push sometimes.

attractive and practical

gcline 2/12/2021

Very easy and straightforward to use, not a lot of silly features. Attractive, quiet, and solid. Did not realize I needed to order the base separately at nearly $300 extra, but I recommend ordering it if you aren't building your own stand. Otherwise, it sits very low. As far as I can tell, this annoying feature is common to most front load washers and dryers. Overall, very happy with this dryer.

Kaytee159 2/7/2021

Upon delivery of my dryer from Home Depot it was damaged when I called Electrolux they would not replace the dryer they absolutely insisted on having a repair man come out to repair it a dryer that had in fact never been used I was extremely upset by the fact I was starting out with something broken that ultimately will probably continue to have nothing but problems.

I am so glad that I listened to him and purchased this dryer as it is used all day/5days week to dry towels in a hair salon. It is quiet, efficient and huge!!! Im very happy with my purchase;)

Great Washer and Dryer

Mike Garner 11/24/2020

I bought the pair about a month ago and couldn't be happier with my purchase. My laundry room is tight so the stacked units saved me lots of floor space and I was able to move them away from the garage door, which with my old dryer was a real hassle due to the gas pipe sticking out of the floor. The features of the units I bought are perfect. I like that the washer doesn't shake while spinning and both the waher and dryer are very quiet.

ChuckL2020 7/20/2020

I replaced a LG with this Electrolux unit. Now I understand how bad the LG was. The price point was good, it is very quiet and the clothes have never been this fresh smelling and fluffy. The lint trap is huge. The outside exhaust vent is very clean. Very little lint makes it out of the dryer.

Multiple broken belts since purchase- Poor service

JJED 5/13/2020

We purchased this dryer in 2018. Within a couple months, belt broke...A normal load of sheets got stuck in the front area of the dryer, near the lint trap part. Since it was bound up, the belt broke. I called Electrolux. They sent out a service provider, who replaced the belt & spent a long time on the phone w. Electrolux engineering to determine if this was a known issue and if there is a known repair, beyond a belt replacement. Total time down, with a dryer: 1+ week. A couple months later....same issue, same poor resolution: electrolux call, belt replacement, call with engineering, no resolution. Was assured by Electrolux that my issues had been documented and that warranty would be extended, and that if happened again, unit would be replaced. Called them when it happened again, but they reneged on their commitment, and punted to Home Depot. I engaged Home Depot Warranty department, as I had spend a lot of money on an extended warranty. At that point, belt had broken a THIRD time and they sent out someone...who again, replaced belt and provided documentation to Home Depot. They refused to acknowledge and honor the service providers documentation that that unit was defective and that the issue could not be repaired. Warranty tag line is "if we cannot repair it, we'll replace it"...but that is boloney. SO disappointed in Electrolux and Home Depot. 4th belt failure - no help from home depot, beyond "we'll repair with another belt". Went back to Electrolux...they collected all the information and FINALLY agreed to replacement, BUT--since it was past the initial warranty period, I have to pay an installer for delivery + installation of the replacement+ haul away. They don't care about the well documented history of this issue, dating back to weeks after purchase, my multiple requests for replacement while under manufacturer warranty, OR the cumulative MONTHS that I've been unable to do laundry, OR the guarantees that warranty would be extended due to issues that were documented from the very beginning. I am outraged at being asked to pay hundreds more dollars, or ANY MONEY to deal with this issue. Total time without laundry (waiting for service providers, belt orders, replacement): 3 months & still counting! Hopefully, the same model that they send me (which they say was manufactured in 2020) does NOT have this issue...but no assurance of this. Electrolux claims there is no documented issue with the design, but Home Depot website now has LOTS of reviews that cite this design flaw and defect...where clothes get stuck in the lint trap, leading to issues including belt failure. It is a known issue, but what is unknown is if has been fixed in the design. It is unethical for them to say that it isn't a known issue, and that they don't know if the design has been updated. What?!?!? Electrolux needs to acknowledge this issue and advise if there is a different design in 2020 to resolve this defective unit design. Electrolux needs to honor the fact that they produced a defective model, and replace it without any cost to customers that have recurring issues related to your defective design, especially when there is documentation of issue, dating back to when purchased. If the design has not been updated, they need to supply a different model.

rjtunks 4/30/2020

I've only owned this for a few weeks but its been OK so far. The main issue so far is that when I try to dry a normal batch of laundry, it defaults to "eco" mode and wont dry a normal load in the first time. I havent been able to find out how to turn off the "eco" mode so the only way to have it dry is to do a timed cycle on high for 30 or 60 minutes. Otherwise, it is working fine.
