April 2009. LG dryers get great feedback for overall satisfaction, and that includes the LG DLG2526W Gas Dryer. This dryer has a capacity of 7.0 cubic feet, which, while not the largest, is large enough for most families. Some upscale, and even some lower-priced, dryers have more convenience features -- for example, the DLG2526W doesn't come with a drying rack -- but all of the essentials are there. This dryer can be stacked, installed as a free-standing unit or mounted on a pedestal. Reports indicate that the DLG2526W is fast, quiet and easy to use. If you don't have a gas hookup, an electric version, the LG DLE2516W Electric Dryer (*est. $725) is even less expensive, though energy costs could be higher over the long term. With its great lineup of features, the GE Profile DPSE810GGWT Gas Dryer (*est. $680) is a good alternative, and its electric counterpart scores well in tests, but user feedback is limited and mixed.

Feedback isn't especially plentiful for the LG DLG2526W Gas Dryer, but user opinions can be found at sites such as BestBuy.com, AJ Madison.com and Epinions.com. J.D. Power and Associates doesn't rate the LG DLG2526W directly, but does report on customer impressions of the brand.
