LG Electronics Electric Dryer DLE5977

Date Published: 7/6/06

The DLE5977 super-sized electric dryer from LG Electronics offers 9 different automatic cycles for the ultimate in drying your clothes.

Using a sensor, the DLE5977 detects changes in moisture and humidity in the dryer drum--and then adjusts the heat to the needs of your clothes as they dry. The benefit of this sensor technology is damage prevention for fabrics. Used in a number of expensive models, this system effectively prevents shrinkage, heat damage, and unnecessary wear and tear of textiles.

The DLE5977 has a large number of cycles that allows for customizing each load for drying--just the way you like it. Choose from settings like normal, more dry, less dry, and damp. Each setting meets the criteria of different fabrics and different individuals.

Some of us like things dry and ready to go, some of us like to hang items to finish drying, and some of us are very particular about wrinkles in our permanent press. Regardless of your preference, this expensive model has a cycle and an adjustment to ensure your clothing is to your liking. You can even save your favorite combinations of settings in a one-touch custom cycle that's all your own.

A quiet model, the LG Electric Dryer DLE5977 utilizes an anti-vibration motor and a one-piece cabinet design to cut down on unnecessary noise during operation. Versatile installation options make this unit appropriate for use stacked with a washer, freestanding or atop a pedestal equipped with a handy storage drawer.

Similar in design to a number of products from large U.S. companies, be prepared to pay a bit more for the imported DLE5977 electric dryer from Korean manufacturer LG Electronics.

Pros: Very large capacity, tremendous variety in settings
Cons: More expensive than some comparable brands



Warranty
1 year, full; 7 years, drum and motor
