Amana NED4500VQ Review

The Amana NED4500VQ electric dryer earns raves from users for its speed and power. Even heavy items like towels and jeans get dry in one cycle, consumers report in Amana NED4500VQ reviews at Buzzillions. With a 6.5-cubic-foot capacity, users also have no trouble drying extra-large items such as comforters and other bedding.

The Amana NED4500VQ comes with some convenient features that users seem to appreciate, including a wrinkle-free option, an end-of-cycle buzzer, and an auto-dry setting. The wrinkle guard is nice to have, reviews note, but in an Amana NED4500VQ review at Home Depot, one user points out that the feature is available only at high heat and on the automatic cycle. The same user notes that the Amana offers high, low, and air-only drying but no medium or permanent-press settings.

Several reviewers posting Amana NED4500VQ reviews on Buzzillions call the end-of-cycle notification buzzer loud and persistent, making this model ideal for consumers with garage and basement hook-ups who want to switch out clothes as soon as they're done. Other users posting Amana NED4500VQ reviews on Home Depot like that the buzzer can be turned off when desired.

While the Amana NED4500VQ seems to deliver solid performance, along with a few unexpected extras, that's not to say it's without flaws. Some users find the lint trap hard to clean, and cycle options may seem somewhat arbitrary. Take, for instance, the above-mentioned absence of a medium heat setting. One user also expresses frustration with the unit's lone control dial in an Amana NED4500VQ review at Home Depot, calling temperature selection a process of trial and error. Buyers who want complete control over cycle times and temps might want to look elsewhere.

Users of the Amana NED4500VQ and its gas counterpart, the Amana NGD4500VQ, seem to regard any issues as minor inconveniences, not deal breakers, however. Overall, this dryer is a dependable performer.
