Admiral AED4475TQ Review
This Home Depot exclusive offers 6.5 cubic feet of capacity, five dry cycles, three temperature settings, and a reversible door. Experts call it a good buy for the money and most users report satisfaction with its drying performance. For those with a gas hookup, the Admiral AGD4475TQ earns similar reviews.
The Admiral AED4475TQ, manufactured by Whirlpool and sold only through Home Depot, is an attractive option for consumers who need a reliable dryer on the cheap. A gas-run version, the Admiral AGD4475TQ, is also available. In general, users posting Admiral AED4475TQ reviews call this machine's performance satisfactory and admire its efficiency and large, 6.5-cubic-foot interior. Consumers seem to like this simple model despite the scant options it offers, according to Admiral AED4475TQ reviews. Like many machines in its price range, the Admiral AED4475TQ does not include an interior light or end-of-cycle buzzer.
One quirk of this model is a timed dry cycle that goes up to only 30 minutes, which some users find insufficient, according to Admiral AED4475TQ reviews at Home Depot. Some users posting Admiral AED4475TQ reviews at Price Grabber say the auto-dry feature adds value, although some reviewers posting at Home Depot complain that it doesn't work on low heat. This model monitors dryness via a temperature gauge rather than a moisture sensor, and according to Admiral AED4475TQ reviews at Home Depot, some users find that the machine often leaves clothes damp. (This complaint pops up regularly in reviews of both budget and high-end models.)
A tapered back on this machine combines with the dryer vent to make this model stick out farther from the wall than others, an issue mentioned in several Admiral AED4475TQ reviews at Home Depot. The resulting 27.75-inch depth makes this dryer appropriate only for users with ample laundry space.
Although expert buzz on this machine is minimal, user reviews indicate that the Admiral AED4475TQ is a good solution for cash-strapped consumers who want a dependable, if unremarkable, clothes dryer. Those who seek a few extra features or have cramped laundry quarters may want to consider one of our other picks.
