COSTWAY, 13.2 lbs Capacity Front Load Compact Tumble Laundry Stainless Steel Tub, Easy Control Button Panel Downside for Variety Drying Mode, White 1700W Electric Portable Clothes Dryer

The media could not be loaded. I don’t have a car. So getting to the laundromat as a single mother with two kids, especially in the winter, can be very hard. Walking there with all of our laundry up hill, was also quite the task. With a brand new baby it was just exhausting and I couldn’t do it anymore and figured I would look on Amazon and see what they had. I had no idea they had portable dryers until this purchase! I sat and read tons of reviews and this was the largest and had the best reviews of all of the dryers. I can do a family of three’s clothes in it plus towels EASILY. I just break up the wash into two smaller loads for the dryer. Unless it’s all clothing that dries quickly. Like workout clothing, leggings, anything with that spandex type of material. It can dry a larger load of stuff like that in an hour or so. I go and take lint out of the trap as it’s going to speed things up a bit and keep the airflow optimal. The biggest win for me is the fact I have no lint all over my clothes anymore and our clothes aren’t hard from line drying. You have no idea how nice it is putting on a soft shirt or feeling a soft fluffy towel against your face. I had been hand washing and line drying our clothes and lint was just all over everything. The tiny little portable washing machine I was using just got lint all over everything and it was awful. Not to mention line drying and having hard tee shirts and underwear. But desperate times call for desperate measures sometimes. Winter is coming and I won’t be able to line dry anymore. Walking to the laundromat is so hard with a new baby and a nine year old. Plus the weight of it all and having to push it uphill for twenty minutes, is exhausting. This purchase literally took so much anxiety away about this winter and how to get our laundry done. My days are so much easier now. Versus spending half the day washing and hand wringing all of our clothes from the day before. I’d recommend going for the Amazon credit card and getting the coupon to make the purchase even cheaper. That’s what I did and I’m so happy I did! Literally changed my life and my days are that much easier. Easy to use. Works amazingly well. Goes clockwise and counter clockwise so you’re clothes don’t get tangled. Larger than I expected but still small. I wish I could find a wall Mount to put it up on the wall, but I can’t find it on here. Or a wire rack that can hold the weight. To make the footprint even less and get it off my kitchen table. But I really don’t mind for the peace of mind I’ve got now. Worth the purchase! Buy it now. You won’t regret it!

UPDATE 11/04/24 Can you believe this dryer is still working without issue? I can't. I better knock on wood.I have a tiny home and I do not do without the conveniences of a modern home. Everything is just scaled down to fit on a counter or run 110v and take up much less room. There were a few reasons I chose this dryer over the now much wider range of portable we have to choose from.PROS:1.) It's size. One of the largest of portables.2.) The wattage. Allowing for the highest temperature you can get in a 110v portable.3.) Wall mountable. It was a must for me since the dials were at the bottom of the unit. I'd actually love to be able to set it on the ground, but at least this way, it frees up some room underneath for laundry baskets.4.) Uses standard 4 inch exhaust. I punched a hole in an exterior wall to add permanent ventilation.5.) Uses a reverse in cycles so that it will untangle your clothing, i e long sleeve shirts and the legs of pants. NO MORE KNOTS!CONS:1.) It doesn't come with mounting brackets. I used my old ones from the previous dryer.2.) You can not see into the window. That is a bummer.With that being said, here are a few things you should know before purchasing along with some tips. This is probably the largest of portables and you probably will not get a better temperature as I haven't found a higher-wattage portable on the market. To match your washer efficiently, make sure the washer sq ft is close to half the sq ft of your dryer. This is important if you want to wash and dry at the same time without backing up the laundry at the dryer portion of doing laundry. When the dryer finishes a cycle, depending on how heavy-duty the fabric is, it should be dry, allowing you to switch out clothes at a steady pace. Here's a helpful hint. Buy lighter-weight cheaper towels. It just makes sense for your portable dryer. They dry so much quicker. I love a luxury towel, but do you know how heavy they are when damp? It takes too long to dry and it causes a lot of stress on your dryer and its belts.If your dryer is causing noise, you should be looking at the internal braces that allow it to tumble freely. You may have to bend it back into the proper position. This is a slight shipping damage that can occur. You may also need to wedge something between the dryer and the drum brace so that it firmly holds without the vibration noise. Open the back and figure it out. You can do this, I have faith in that.If you wear a pants size with a length of 34 as I do, turn them inside out, fold your pants together long ways, and then fold them three times from the waist to the bottom of the pant leg and place them in the dryer flat left to right. You'll get a quicker dry and fewer wrinkles. I would do this with all pants regardless of size, actually. Don't use dryer sheets. They damage your dryer. Use wool balls. You can add essential oils to make your clothing smell wonderful. When you take a towel out of this dryer, it is very warm and feels so good just stepping out of the shower. I've had my dryer since April 7th, this year. I'm VERY happy with my purchase. My previous dryer was a Magic Chef dryer model # mcsdry1s. This new dryer is a major upgrade.
