Comments

Tim Chen: Perfect is you live in an apartment. Larger load of clothes may need a longer drying time but it gets the job done.

Moneca Tayler: Pros:
dries like a dream
Gets hot
Nice looking
Has some cool settings
Perfect for the RV. Plugs in any outlet. Should have bought this for some rentals!

Cons

Company sent a unit that was dropped and the entire machine is crooked

Needs maintenance constantly ie: remove back panel to remove lint build up so it stops shutting off from over heating

It began squeaking and now the belt has snapped so it needs replacing.

If you’re handy and aren’t phased by minor repairs or maintenance it’s not a bad machine.

Share070Share070: The media could not be loaded.  I had this venting indoors to an indoor kit in my previous apartment (pictured), and it's hooked up to an external vent now. I find it dries better if it can vent externally. Love the auto function. It does take a bit longer than a regular drier, but it has a decent capacity and looks great. Filter is easy to clean with a vacuum.

Lynn Neufeld: It's a great little dryer. It takes a little longer to dry, but that's to be expected. The controls are easy to use and intuitive. Though, the auto dry sensor is not the best. I just put it on timed dry to get around that. It runs a little louder than my older dryer, but is far more durable and reliable. I am quite happy with it.

Amazon Customer: I live in a very small trailer, with no regular washer and dryer hook ups.
I have the Panda portable washer and have had that for over two years now. I figured since the washer works so well I would spend the money and buy this dryer.
The shipping time was great and it came in perfect condition.
The dryer is easy to hook up, and plugs into a regular outlet. I have mine on a counter top rather then wall mounted. It comes with adjustable legs so that you can make sure it's sitting evenly. It also came with the wall mountings if you want to do that instead.
I wiped down the inside and out of the dryer after set up to make sure there was no chemical residue before using for the first time.

My first piece of advice would be read the manual thoroughly so that you understand the drying times and different functions. I read about half and decided to wing it. By winging it I wasted a whole lot of time that I didn't need to waste. Learn from my mistake. Read the whole manual first.
My first load was 2 pairs of jeans and three shirts (I didn't want to over load it) I dried these loads on the manual settings where you choose the temp and time that you want it to run...

Tracy: I wanted to test this out before I reviewed it. I gotta say it doesn't disapoint. I was sceptical at first but the reviews were great and I can see why. This little bugger is great. Better than I thought it would be. I have a full size washer so I split the load in 2 for the dryer. It does a fantastic job. I highly recomend this dryer. It dries my towels and sweaters no problem. Very happy with my purchase. By the way we do a lot of laundry and it keeps up. 5 stars

Amazon Customer: At first I was not sure if I had made a good purchase with this item, until I reviewed additional customer feedback, along with the responses from Panda customer service. I recommend using the automated functions to refresh clothes, or for fabrics which dry fast. Otherwise the magic button is the manual Hot button and adjust the timer: this changed my perspective entirely, the load dried in less than 15 mins, including towels. Panda would benefit in improving their instructions / troubleshooting sections in the manual. Otherwise I am now considering this a very valuable investment and am pleased I bought both the washer and dryer.

So, first off I must mention, the seller (for me atleast, VMInnovations) have been great so far, they are currently helping me. The machine is still working, and working well, but there is a problem. Anyways, I am having an issue with, noises, you could say. The dryer has been a champ and has helped me do a good number of loads so far, and it has been working tirelessly, flawlessly, until the past couple of weeks.

First, I started to notice that after drying for a little while, it would start to squeak. Now, when I say this, I mean a noticeably, fairly loud, annoying squeak. This was not a huge deal, as it still works fine, but it is worth noting. However, then I started to have a much more problematic issue. While drying, when it would do the reverse tumble, and then go back, it would make a massive bang. This bang seems to be coming from a belt tensioner in the back, at-least, that is the only thing that makes sense. It is loud and very noticeable.

Now, please keep in mind, I truly have never gotten close to actually using this machine to its full capacity, of which is 13lbs. of laundry. I was worried that I may have overloaded it, but I am very...
