Panda 3.5 cu.ft Portable Compact Laundry Dryer - PAN60SF

S. Rozon: After looking at several driers I picked this one and I am SO GLAD I picked this one. I don't know why I never bought one sooner!!!! I live with my sister so we're two using this machine. It's not too loud (esp. if you vent it out); I don't vent it out (I put a sock around the exhaust to catch some humidity/lint) but it's honestly no louder than a regular/standard dryer. My laundry is softer and smells nice for longer. The lint trap inside is great and catches more than a regular dryer - we have two cats and you'd never know it. It doesn't take any longer than a normal sized machine. I use the normal setting for roughly 60 mins - and we're talking BIG loads. 4 pairs of shorts, 4 hoodies, 4 tank tops/tshirts, one towel and a sports bra (I also have the PANDA Washer and I do two spins which really helps cut down on dry time BIG TIME). Sometimes I'll put it at 80 mins but have always stopped it short of the full 80mins. It's perfect for apartments or any house to be honest. I will update once I wash my queen sized duvet but I don't foresee any problems with drying time.

Only complaint is the power cord is a bit short and the exhaust hose that comes with it...

luis: Worked great for about 2 weeks then the drum stopped turning and some sort of gasket was jammed up in the front part of it.
Would consider getting another one if this is an isloated incident and they return my money for the first one.

Randy D.: Just used this dryer today...WOW an I impressed.This dryer is very hot and dried large loads easily and efficiently. I was a leary about buying this machine but boy am I glad.It dries clothes in a time efficient manner.Very quite and built very well.Set up was a breeze, I did it myself and I believe this to be the best purchase I have ever bought on Amazon. Kudos to Panda for impressing me with this Gem. Honestly if your looking for a well built and great dryer for your apartment, you need to buy this Panda Dryer.Shipping was great,the driver was the nicest guy and the packaging box did not have Clothes Dryer printed on it. It came in an outer box and inside that box was the dryer box.My dryer had no dents and worked straight out of the box. God I love this dryer!!.Thank you Amazon.ca and thank you Panda.Update:,I have had this dryer for a while longer and I must say again this is the best compact dryer on the market.It dries so quick and is so gentle on fabric that it again surpasses any expectations I have for this dryer...I absolutely love this dryer,so quite and just well built.I absolutely whole heartedly recommend that you consider this dryer if you are...

Christine M Hutchison: So far, I love this dryer. I have had it roughly a week and it is working great. It showed up with no damage to the dryer; however, there was a note about how to put the belt back on in the event it had become disconnected in shipping. The note made me hesitant setting it up, and I believe that it also likely means that this is a common issue. Also, the "instruction manual" is instructive only if you want to mount it on your wall. You should be able to get everything set easily though. There is an exhaust pipe that connects through an elbow joint and all you do is attach the joint and turn till it clicks and then attach the plastic hose with the hose clamp that is included. You do not need to vent to the outdoors, I have just attached a stocking over the end of the exhaust pipe. You can also purchase an indoor vent system but really it won't be any more effective than a stocking (the vent system just captures lint in a water trap).

I use the dryer in conjunction with an RCA 1.5 cu foot washer. It is almost identical to the same size magic chef washer and after some searching it appears they are all made by the same manufacturers since all that...

MixDudeMixDude: Get the PAN60SF its 3.75 cubic feet. Pretty decent size for this being a 110v model. Clothes do take longer to dry being its half the power of a standard 220v dryer. But a longer dry time sure beats going to a laundromat or my building's gross laundry facility down in a dungeness setting in the basement. Yuuck! This dryer is perfect if you live in an apartment with no special venting or electric. Just a standard 110 outlet. I plugged my dryer into an outlet that doesnt have too many other appliances or tvs connected to the same circut. My PAN60SF arrived in a plain box over the original which made my delivery discreet. Which I appreciate alot. Thank you amazon
In my opinion this dryer goes best with the Danby DWM17WDB 1.7 cubic foot portable washing maching. I prefer this washer over any other portable washer because it replicates the old school agitator found in the middle of the washer which moves and thoroughly washes the clothes. This technology has been around for decades and still is very effective. The new pulsator washers which basically is disk that swishes arround clothes often tangles everything up and doesn't clean very well. Im pleased that...

Amazon Customer: This little machine is amazing! I had read some reviews say it would take 3hrs to dry a simple load. I'be been doing laundry since I was 12, this machine drys at the same pace as a regular dryer. I love the fact I don't have to vent it outside. Warm air comes out from the vent, the room gets a bit warm, but it's nice now in the north where it's getting cold. Fits perfect in my tiny apartment. So easy to set up. The only issue was it came with a dent on the top. I read other reviews and saw this was common. It doesn't bother me so long as it works great, and gets the job done.

Kayley: The media could not be loaded.  I bought this heat dryer to pair with my Giantex/Costway washing/spin dry machine.

This dryer meets my needs, so I'm satisfied. I usually spin dry the clothes in the Giantex/Costway before moving the items to this heated dryer.

I have only ever used the "hot" air setting, and it does its job. The clothes come out fully dry.

The main downside of the machine is that it takes 2+ hours to complete a cycle. The other main downside is that the instructions are useless. They only say how to mount the dryer to the wall (I guess that's an option), but they don't explain how the vent is supposed to work. I'm still not quite sure if I'm using it right, but it seems sufficient.

As an example of all of this, I have attached a video review of how I go through the drying process. I hope the video helps you see the product in action...

UniqueUnique: I love it. Works extremely well. Easy to set up, lint screens are a breeze to clean, is quiet and drys in about the same time as a regular size model. The drying settings took a bit of experimenting to get a quick dry. Now most loads dry in 20-25 min with the 'High' heat setting and the dial turned to 200 min with my own timer set for 20 min. When the timer goes off, I check the clothes. According to the dial, there is 80 min in the 'High' heat portion of the dial then the cycle continues into a 'WARM' temperature setting as the dial counts down the rest of the 200 min. I found clothes take forever to dry in this section of the dial settings, even on the 'High' heat setting, so I don't use it anymore. The machine stops as soon as the door is partially open, just like a regular machine. And the clothes are done!

I bought a small washing machine as well, which means I no longer wait till I have a full load of dirty clothes for the regular machines, so I no longer have a pile of dirty clothes lying around, either. One or two items? In they go. Done in an hour. I'm in HEAVEN.

I have the dryer set up in my bedroom. I have done up to 6-7 loads in one...
