I have an electrolux dryer and it sucks wet asses. Only one out of 12 programs will actually dry your cloth, the rest will give you the wildest palette of wettness you can imagine. Plus, there is a dead zone near the door where socks get almost instantly attracted and they will just sit there, laughing at us in their smug wetness. Any engineer who would have tested that thing would immediately change the door design.
I clean the condenser every two weeks or so, but still. suck ass.

are you sure your element isn't burned out? took me a bit to figure out my stuff wasn't drying b/c the element blew, but when i turned it on, it still felt "warm"

One beef I do have with my Samsung dryer is that it will give a time at the beginning, but then if they clothes aren't dry at the end of that time (and they usually aren't) it just keeps adding time until they are dry. This isn't a problem most of the time but there's been a few days where I thought I could get a load of laundry done before I had to go somewhere and the clothes I needed to wear were in it and it just kept adding 5 more minutes and then 2 more minutes and then 3 more minutes until I was 25 minutes late.

I will at least change the humidity sensor, that might be root of it. I still get dry stuff with the heaviest program.

I had this on our old Samsung dryer. 30 minutes, a $20 or $30 part and a Youtube video solved it.

yea, the element didn't work, but the drum would be "warm" i'm guessing from all the spinning, and it'd be like "dry-ish" cuz it was basically spun dry heh, cuz i'd just shove clothes in there and leave like a normal person, then i turned it on waited 5mins and no heat.

I don't personally have one, but general consensus from what I've seen/heard is that you'd only want one if you were very desperate for extra space; they don't perform either function as well as discrete machines do.

I had one way "back in the day" when I had an apartment. It was tolerable, but far from optimal.

chest freezers.
got my first, not sure if it's fucked up. box etc looked undamaged. On the back wall it's all soft ish insulated aluminum. there's one small spot that's cold to the touch with minor condensation but isn't like dripping. it is above and a little too the side of the compressor etc.
normal?

I dunno seems not. The point is to exchange heat so if it's cold on the outside that doesn't seem good. I don't think I've ever seen condensation forming on the back plate of a fridge or freezer before. Seems leaky to me.

We ordered our Speed Queen washer and dryer today from a local place. Delivery scheduled for Wednesday bc I’m out on Tuesday. We just went with the TR-5 and DR-5 models. Looked at the Maytag Commercial and one other but just went with SQ at the end. They had 0% 12-months so why not. Interested to see how they work out. My Samsungs lasted about 14 years with minimal maintenance but it is time to replace them.

I think both chest and upright freezers are available in either frost free or regular. If you don't want to defrost it once a year or so the ones with a fan will save that but dry it out in there leading to earlier freezer burn.
I find the upright freezers easier to find stuff in but you can't fill the up as much. If you want to put a lot of stuff in there chest is the way to go imo.
