Dryer recommendations
It appears we are in the market for a new dryer. We haven't exactly had great luck with these. Purchased an expensive Maytag and only got 3 years out of it. Purchased a cheap one this last time and got only 3 years out of it. I'm inclined to just go cheap again but I would like to know if there is anything out there that is worth the extra coin.

Keep in mind, we don't need all the extra bells and whistles. We just need it to dry clothes. Nothing special.

We are looking at this model DV40J3000EW but it is interesting reading reviews for it...

http://www.jcpenney.com/p/samsung-72...12x64&sort=PLH

https://reviews.cheapism.com/cheap-d...j3000ew-review

https://www.consumerreports.org/prod...7597/overview/

When I search the model number I see each website with over 500 reviews and a 4.5 star or better rating but then I see consumer reports user reviews all saying the heating element died early. Also the Cheap site even commented on the heating element. How can there be that many great reviews yet what appears to be a common problem with it.

I had an LG dryer for 10 years, only had the element go out 1 time in all that time. Finally bought a new set this year and went with LG again.

If you go down to a place like the Sears outlet, you can get a 700 dollar dryer for like 3-400 cause someone didn't want it.

But anyhow I've had really good luck with LG's.

Buddy of mine sells appliances out of his tire shop. (I know, but whatever. It's a small town). I don't do any research I just tell him I need whatever and pay what he tells me to pay. He is my guy and hasn't led me astray.

Anyway when my dryer quit he brought in a speed queen. He said they're far and away the best units. It's not fancy but the damned thing works. I can't remember for sure but there is a pretty long warranty. I want to say 5 years. Don't quote me though.

Stay away from Samsung. I have a washer/dryer and just bought a refrigerator from them. Had nothing but problems. I bought the fridge in Feb and they wont even warranty it. They just say that they will but back the appliance from me but never follow up with the email that they say they will send. Sears where I bought says that Samsung wont let them work on it. I've been on the phone with them no less than a total of 3 hours in the last two months.

My wife worked in kitchen and appliances at Lowe's for several years. Her experiences there with customers purchasing Samsung led us away from them for exactly the same reasons you mention.

Yep as long as it isn't the circuit board.

Hey OP:

What is the dryer doing? You might just need a pulley or new wheel things which I forgot the name for.

We had a pulley fixed on our Maytag a couple years back and the repair dude just popped the top off and was done in 15 min. Next time we have an issue I will try it myself.

Make sure you keep them balanced, could be the reason you are going through them so fast too.

If you don't want to do the repair, look around for a service to come out and at least get an estimate, Dryers are like $800 and up.

Good luck,

Don't go with Samsung. We bought a mid level Samsung washer not too many years ago. The drum separated within a year. Had to have a repair on it. They covered the cost of the part but I had to pay for the hourly rate of the repairman. He told me that Samsung was expanding so fast that they weren't doing a very good job at the quality side of things.
