Very smart purchase

I am very happy with the purchase of this product. I have a very small apartment space and I am pleased to after washing clothes to be able to dry them. The unit holds a small load and drys within a hour on the hot setting. I am happy with the purchase. I would recommend this product.

great things come in small packages

Magic Chef MCSDRY15W 1.5 cu. ft. Laundry Dryer, White What can I say? It does what it's designed to do and does it well considering it's size. It's quite the power saver using only a maximum of 850 watts which is less than the average hair dryer. It does have a high and low heat setting and according to my kill-a-watt, the low setting runs at about 500 watts. It does take a little longer than your average sized dryer but for those of us who don't have hookups or need something small due to space availability, it's an excellent choice. It's definitely not big enough for more than a few shirts, couple towels/jeans, etc but it's a lot better than stringing lines around your house to hang dry clothing or having to rely on communal laundry equipment. It's definitely a quiet unit and compliments the 0.9 cu.ft. Magic Chef washer I bought to go along with it quite nicely. The capacity of both units is close enough that a full load in the wash easily fits in this dryer. It's not speedy by any means, but the average load seems to dry within about 60-70 minutes if I start the timer at 200 minutes which is in the range of it's hottest setting. It fits the set of flannel sheets from my full size bed, and I would assume it would fit at least one sheet for a queen size if not both. The product description does omit that it includes a 3"-4" adapter which I purchased separately and didn't need. This adapter allows you to connect a standard 4" dryer hose directly to the unit which has a 3" exhaust opening. All in all, it's a great product that fits in the limited space I had available and now I can avoid having to worry about having quarters for laundry or having to wait for an available machine. One thing to note is that this dryer does not have an end of cycle buzzer which for me is a great feature since I live in a studio apartment and the location I had available is against a shared wall with another tenant. Without laundry hookups I didn't want to bring attention to the fact that I have it. The box I received the dryer in is a plain box with only the model printed on the front and rear, the box dimensions and weight. Inside the box there is another box for the dryer which does have both the model number which is the same printed on the exterior box as well as an outline imagine of the dryer and states "Compact Dryer". This made it very easy to bring in without bringing attention to what I actually had. All in all this is a great unit that seems to work well.

Great Dryer For RV

I purchased this to be installed in my 5th wheel travel trailer. I have 30 amp service in my trailer and I was a bit skeptical about how this unit would work out. The other consideration with purchasing this unit was the fact that it would need to be vented outside in an RV application. I suppose that one could run the dryer inside without venting but this seemed a bad idea especially on a hot summers day, not to mention all the added humidity that reeks havoc on your RV's interior. Venting inside your home is a different story. I found an installation location on the wall of my 5th wheel near a power source. The instructions were easy to understand. Additional thought regarding mounting in an RV situation is required. Every RV installation is different but I would definitely recommend a thought process for extra support above and beyond what the instructions suggest for home use. Traveling down the highway creates bumps and vibrations that typically don't happen with home use. I built a small shelving unit beneath the dryer for added support and storage of laundry supplies as well as additional wall attachment support to accomplish this. Drilling a 4" vent hole for venting in the side of my 5th wheel seemed daunting but it turns out that it was not a huge deal at all. I measured and then triple checked the measurements again before drilling. Home depot had all the necessary adapters and outside venting components needed to complete the job. The dryer runs on basically 2 heat settings. The lower heat setting takes longer to dry but the up side is that I can run my A/C unit while using the dryer. The higher heat setting works very well and on most days with an outside temp of 80 degree or less I can run the dryer and A/C together but I have to put my A/C on low speed or shut it off all together. Not a big deal for me. We have taken 6 trips since installing this dryer and I am very pleased with quality of the unit. It is so nice not to have to use public washers and dryers when traveling. I paired this dryer with a small fully automatic washer from The Laundry Alternative.

What a great dryer!

What a great portable dryer! I have a magic chef set! Soo in love with it! They pack it very well! I have a avanti bracket shelf and this dryer fits perfectly on it! Now I have my mini laundry!! THANK YOU AMAZON FOR PROVIDING THE BEST THINGS FOR HUMANS AND ANIMALS!

Wise purchase!

Have had this for a little over a month. The drum and drying capacity is large despite its small external size, and the cool-down feature at the end of the drying cycle prevents the clothes from wrinkling if they have to sit in the dryer after it shuts off. The only thing I would tell buyers is that they should plan to mount it on a wall or place it on a waist-level or higher shelf: the controls are at the bottom of the unit (see pix) and I have to get down on my hands and knees to see them because I did not plan ahead and put it on the floor in an otherwise very convenient place (not a problem with the appliance, but it bears mentioning). I very much like this unit--even better than my last full-size dryer.

So far this machine is awesome!

I was really hesitant about ordering this dryer because of some of the negative reviews. I got this thing home, plugged it in and went to testing it right away. I put a full load from my 2.1 cubic foot RCA portable washer and was blown away by how well this thing dried. The load included jeans and towels and the thing still dried everything in about 45 minutes. The air did get decently hot, not just warm. Maybe there are some defective units out there or something. I'll update later, sooner if I run into any issues. So far this machine is awesome!

Size Comparisons

Just thought I'd share the comparison in sizes for the Magic Chef 0.9 washer and the Magic Chef 1.5 and 2.6 cu. ft. dryers.

Compact dryer

I’m not the one to write reviews but this little dryer is amazing, it get really hot and I can tested it out by drying 5 big towels at once and they dried with no problem. It also have a lint catcher in the back of it. It’s very quiet and nobody knows it’s even on.. I would definitely recommend this product

Amazing little apartment dryer.

Very small but turns out it’s just what I need. I live in an expensive city and have managed to find a great little two bedroom for a great price. However it has no laundry room or laundry facilities. A friend let me use her small portable washing machine and I bought this dryer. It fits perfectly in a utility closet and really works great. I haven’t even had to let it have a full run because everything dries quickly. Very great purchase. :)

Great first small dryer

We were a little skeptical buying the small dryer but to be honest with you if it's a one or two person family it may be worth it other than that I think you need a bigger dryer. make sure you remove the filter which is in the center of the dryer otherwise it won't dry your clothes well enough.
