Clothes Dryer Buying Guide

Dry Me a River

You have been through the experience of shopping for a clothes washer and are dreading going through the same process for its running mate, the dryer. The good news is that the clothes dryer is a much simpler machine, and therefore requires fewer options and fewer tedious decisions.

Dryers consist of a tumbler that rotates the clothes, a method of heating the air around those clothes, and a vent that takes the now moist air out of the dryer and out of the house. In shopping for a dryer, you want the machine that will do this in the most economic and efficient manner with as little wear and tear on your clothes as possible.
