GE Profile DPSE810EGWT Electric Dryer

April 2009. The GE Profile DPSE810EGWT Electric Dryer scores highly with professional reviewers for its impressive lineup of features. Even a stainless-steel drum is included, though that's not a critical plus, according to most experts. At 7 cubic feet, there's plenty of room for a family's worth of clothes, and even bulky items like blankets and comforters aren't a challenge. One negative cited by reviewers is dated styling compared to other models, including old-fashioned electro-mechanical controls. Another is that this dryer isn't as quiet as some other models. If you have a gas hookup, the GE Profile DPSE810GGWT (*est. $680) is the gas version of this dryer. Though the price is higher than the electric model, operating costs should be lower for most people. If you have a little more to spend, the LG DLE2516W Electric Dryer (*est. $725) is well regarded for its ease of use, performance and quiet operation.

The best professional review for the GE Profile DPSE810EGWT Electric Dryer can be found in Consumer Reports. The magazine isn't long on discussion, and some clothes dryers in the most recent update are discontinued, but ratings are fair, balanced and based on hands-on testing. User reviews can also be found at Consumer Reports, as well as at some retailer sites such as BestBuy.com, AJMadison.com and HomeDepot.com.
