Independence!
By Brilan Wells
I have only had this dryer for when it comes to 10 days now, but I’m very happy with it! There is one other review for this dryer and in it they say it takes a long time for the clothes to dry… this is true. But I think it’s to be expected since this dryer may merely be plugged into any outlet different from a normal dryer. So, littler dryer… less power… longer drying time. The reason I’m giving this unit 5 stars is because if getting out the laundry mat is as indispensable to you as it was to me, then the extra drying time is more than acceptable. Also, this dryer is VERY QUITE, simple to use and set up. For the introductory 5 loads I just had the machine sitting on the floor near a window – I didn’t even have the hose out the window. It did get my apartment a little warm and humid (not since I’ve put the hose out the window of course), but I’m just making the point that it is very easy to set up.

Does what it’s supposed to do in a convinent size!
By TWR
I have a model of this I purchased in regards to a year ago–it looks somewhat dissimilar than the one pictured here but has the same model number.
That said, this dryer is GREAT. It does take a while to arid clothes, but I got it to go along with the haier portable washer, and it dries one load in the time it takes another load to wash when I use the power wash setting, so that’s pretty good.
However, the automatic settings in truth don’t work that well–like a former poster, I commend using the timed arid options.
I also don’t have the dryer vented to the outside–I rather purchased an indoor lint trap thing. I don’t know that it in truth does much, but the dryer doesn’t seem to release a lot of lint into my apartment. The dryer does add numerous heat and humidity to the apartment, but that’s outstanding in the fall/winter. Not so much in the summer, but it still beats having to go to the laundromat.
If you live in an apartment or someplace that doesn’t have laundry hookups or a 220V line, this dryer is a outstanding purchase.

120 volt dryer for apt use
By ama2001
The Haier portable dryer is a good usual aim dryer. It runs on regular current, 120 volts. I let everything arid on the automati cycle, which is appx. 60 minutes. Items come of out the dryer dry, but not HOT. The only problem I have is drying sheets – they tend to ball-up in the dryer, so there are damp spots at the ends. I just let the sheets air arid afterwards. Towels and pillow shams arid completely. Usually may only arid 1 sheet at a time. The number of towels and other items, amounts will vary depending on size and thickness. I use the building’s washer (HE style), which removes more water than the regular top load washers. Clothes that are hand washed (and wrung out) arid within the automati timed of 60 minutes. Overall, I am satisfied with the dryer’s performance. I don’t have to worry with regards to venting to the outside (the adapter is positioned upward). Remember to clean the lint filter after each drying and the dryer will carry out without problems. There is dryer noise so don’t place in area where you need to listen other things.
