This review is a reply from a posting before this one. Original Questions From: S. Puentes "ladyfox3" (Texas, USA) Original Questions Dated: September 11, 2008. There are not much reviews on the product but most are good. I want to buy this dryer I just wonder how easy/difficult is to mount on apartment plaster walls? Is it doable to mount ...what exactly is included as far as mounting and has anybody here actually had it mounted with no problems. Also can you connect this dryer on the same socket as the washing machine? What type of duct/vent equipment did you purchase....since I just read here it doesn't include this. I do have a duct to vent outside I just know that there is a better type of duct to vent than others. =============================== Dear S. Puentes I have Haier dryer and i've owned it for 9months now. To Answer your first question, my Haier Dryer is currently Mounted on the Wall. The Dryer comes with the needed brackets to mount it on the wall and instructions on ho … Read more

Well when it works -it works good. But, it broke after a week. Target sent me out a replacement which also broke after one week. Then Haier themselves sent out a technician to fix the dryer and he used duct tape to fix the belt that kept breaking. It didn't last a day. They then sent another technician who pretty much said the belt is going to keep breaking. I returned both of the dryers back to the Target store for a refund. Read more

Very Useful Dryer

rl9905 from Orange County, California

I bought this product in January 2008 and had it for 4 months now. I've been using it 2-3 times a week and it works really good. It may take just a little longer than usual to dry a load of clothes (about 1 hour to 1.5 hours) and the clothes do come out dry. What's great about this dryer is that there are many great features on this dryer. You can set it on "Auto Dry" or "Time Dry" (from 30mins to 150mins). It also has a Normal Cycle, Heavy Cycle for heavy items such as jeans, a delicate cycle and timed dry cycle. There are three temperature settings High, Low and Air Dry. At the end of the cycle, a chime sounds lettting you know the cycle has completed. The lint filter is easy to clean. What i usually do is put my clothes into the dryer, press the POWER button and then START. It automatically stops when the clothes are dry. It's quiet and not loud. The sound is minimal. It also comes with brackets where you can hang it up on the wall. The dryer is not heavy. Another great thing abo … Read more

Studio Apt Dweller from Silver Spring, MD

I've had this dryer for a little bit (currently drying my fourth load). I was dissappointed with the manual's disclaimer about venting to the outside. It says the warranty is void if the proper ducting is not in place. However, the dryer is advertised as being 'perfect for apartments, dorm rooms, etc.' without mention of the requirment of having access to an outside venting duct. I attached the venting piece that comes the unit (no ductwork comes with it), so that the vent enters my apartment freely. My apartment isn't stuffy at all, it is fairly well ventilated. So far, so good. Otherwise, I'm satisfied. It dries in a reasonable amount of time. I have a Haier portable washer, and putting in a load of clothes or towels from one wash does not overwork the dryer. A little more FYI: I can't run my dryer and my microwave on the same circuit without tripping the breaker, but that is an easy problem to remedy (no nukin' in the microwave while drying, and vice versa.)

I love this little dryer. It's great for small condos/apartments. I only have one complaint. I can't locate a replacement exhaust filter. I've tried EVERYWHERE. I had ordered 3 filters from [...] in October 2008, and they told me today (12/1/8) that the part is no longer available from China.) It is a round black felt disc with a hole in the center which must be cleaned with a small brush or vacuum after you've finished the week's laundry. I've been using a Remington wool sweater shaver which has unfortunately shaved away some of the filter along with the lint. I will go to the fabric store and buy a piece of 100% wool felt fabric (not polyester) and cut it to the same shape. I hope this works. BTW, I don't vent this dryer to the outside either, but I locate it near my bathroom and turn on the ceiling fan. Because I can't wall mount it, I bought "sliders" from [...] and just slide it out of the closet when I need to use it. I also make sure to clean the lint filter after every load t … Read more
