Frigidaire FAQE7017KB Affinity, Front Load Electric Dryer 7.0 Cubic Feet

Bulk can be handled with finesse, as proven by the dryers in the Affinity Series, which includes the FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KB. The FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KB is able to thoroughly dry, and even kill bacteria from the heaviest loads. It does help that though this electric dryer only has 7 basic drying cycles, both a heavy duty and a 25-minute Quick Cycle are included.

Interior Features

The FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KB gas dryer has 7 drying cycles and 12 options. Included among the 7 drying cycles are the basic fabric-specific cycles, plus the normal and heavy duty programs. Also included is a 25 minute Quick cycle, which should come in handy when wringing just a little bit of moisture or refreshing clothes that must be worn at once.

The electronic Moisture Sensor is an important feature in the FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KB. This sensor gauges just how much work the appliance still has to do when targeting a certain dryness level. For example, automatic cycles may set the temperature to a higher level and the drying time to a longer duration when the load is drenched.

Tough performance without noise and vibration is made possible by several features, especially the SilentDesign technology that has been included in the FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KB gas dryer.
12 options include features that ensure the care of fabrics. Examples of such features are the Shrink Guard and the Extended Tumble. The Shrink Guard is pretty much easy to understand because of its name. It prevents garments from shrinking into smaller sizes. The user does have to check on garments that are prone to shrinkage before loading them to the dryer. The

option needs selecting.

Exterior Features

In Classic Black, the FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KB is sleek-looking. It will appeal to home owners who prefer modern over traditional. For those who may have other themes and styles in mind, there are color alternatives, such as Classic Blue, Classic Red, Classic Silver and Classic White.

The drum, at a 7.0 cubic feet capacity, can accommodate a lot of laundry at a time. This enables the user to finish the laundry in a short period of time. The drum itself is also durable, made of painted steel that is not prone to rusting.

A Control Lock feature is included to prevent the applianceís door from opening when it is being used.

Express Select Controls make life easier. A press of the button makes a selection.
