Overview

GE builds this electric front-load dryer around a moisture sensor that ends cycles as clothes dry, with steam cycles to cut wrinkles. SmartHQ Wi-Fi lets a phone track and control loads, and the door can be reversed to suit the room.

Energy Star certification and a steam refresh cycle make it a sensible match for families drying big loads and wrinkled shirts. Vent type and electrical requirements are left out of the listing, so the hookup needs checking first.

Who it's for

Households drying comforters, towels and work shirts in a full laundry room get large capacity plus steam. A shallow laundry nook will struggle with the door swing, as the open-door depth is considerable.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Large drum handles comforters
  • Energy Star certified
  • Steam refresh reduces wrinkles
  • Moisture sensor prevents over-drying
Cons
  • Vent type and voltage not listed
  • Color differs between listing sections
  • Heavy unit to position

Performance notes

The moisture sensor reads dampness in the load and stops the cycle when clothes are dry, which limits over-drying and wasted energy. Steam refresh adds moisture to relax wrinkles in lightly worn clothes. Delay dry lets a cycle start later, such as after the washer finishes.
