Kenmore 5.9 cu. ft. Extra-Large Capacity Gas Dryer

I moved to Los Angeles from New York a few years ago, and no longer finding and laundry mats close enough to my house to do a load of wash every now and then, went on the market looking for a new washer and dryer for my house. The first place I went to check was Sears, and since I didn’t really need anything that went beyond the basics, was able to find the washer and dryer I needed at a good price.

The dryer I selected was a Kenmore gas dryer so we could use it with our gas hookup.

I’ve had it for three years now, and it really has gone above and beyond the call of duty as far as holding up to use. There are four of us in my household and all of us do plenty of laundry, but the worst problem I’ve ever had with the machine was the buzzer being a little too annoying (you can turn it off) and the ‘on’ button occasionally not wanting to ‘stick’.

But other than that, it’s a good machine, and one I’d recommend to anyone just buying a basic dryer. My favourite feature is the ability to set a desired ‘dryness’ level- i.e., dry, very dry- and the dryer will stop when your clothes have reached that level.

No more ‘completely baked and shrunk’ clothes feeling. A definite keeper.
