Burnt Wires - Glad there was no fire

Tim2020 8/20/2020

We bought this Dryer and the matching washing machine in December of 2012. The washer needed a new water pump last year. The dry heating element went out last week and when I check the electrical I saw this major short. For a high-end brand, I am disappointed by the longevity of the products.

The Best!

daga1968 5/12/2019

Bought the washer/dryer pair in 2014 and have been completely satisfied with my purchase. They are used almost daily and have never experienced any problems. The features are outstanding and love the steam function. The large capacities for both the washer and dryer are a huge plus!

Higher cost, standard quality

StephanieSays 9/17/2017

Electrolux uses industry standard of 1 year warranty to back its appliances. I purchased and used this dryer for 18 months before it died, so I guess it worked out pretty well. Service tech identified the board as the problem. Repair would cost $200+ and be backed for 90 day after installation. Do the math and draw your own conclusions.

Money Pit

Daddyd2x 1/27/2017

I have had this dryer for 6 years now. In that time period, I have had to replace 2 belts, 1 door hinge, and 2 thermal limiters as well as call a repair man to fix whatever issue we were having at the time (I didn't know what the problem was). I had purchased the extended warranty so the repair call was covered. The day after the repair man came, my warranty expired and my dryer stopped working flashing a code that was AGAIN telling me the thermal limiter was the issue. Now to replace the Thermal Limiter you have to basically dismantle the whole unit. We did, only to have the dryer spit out the same code. GRRRR. Now I don't know about you but if you're going to spend 1300$ on a dryer I would expect it to last almost a life time. After all, the older dryers we've used in the past that have cost us half the price, never gave us any issues. I would not recommend this brand as it has quickly become a money pit and a huge hassle. Not worth the $1300 that's for sure.

Washer and Dryer are great with a few exceptions

BubblesBronski 1/20/2017

We purposely bought Electrolux front loaders and overall are happy with our decision. Like other front loaders, the washer retains water even after the load is finished. The detergent drawer also retains water. If the doors are not left open, they smell bad so I wipe the rubber seals on the washer and the detergent drawer after finishing the washing.The dryer is huge and I can fit plenty of clothes in there at one time. However, if the heat cycle isn't set to High, the clothes don't fully dry. Some clothes can't be dried on High, so they have to go through several drying cycles before they are dry enough to put away.

Great job of cleaning

airedalemama 8/14/2016

I bought a pair about 2 months ago. The laundry is the cleanest I have ever had. They cost more but I am glad I purchased them. The only thing that is a little difficult is that you have to press the silver know just right to get them to open. I wish they had a different type of handle. Overall, very satisfied. Washer is quiet even though I have them stacked.

Piedmont Parc 7/15/2016

Bought the washer/dryer about a month ago. So far, very pleased with the products. They are very quiet; balanced and have great features. Both are good products and value. Before I purchased them I did my research, and read many reviews the gave these product a very poor rating. I don't agree so far I am very pleased with my purchase.

Everything I Needed

MickeyG 6/14/2016

Great combination of settings for any size/type of load. Easy to reach and clean front mounted lint screen. Tumble feature is great to prevent wrinkles if you do not get to the dryer soon after it has finished. Dryer has been used 3-4 times a week for 4 months without any problems. The dryer is deep and when stacked, you may need assistance in reaching some items. Very happy with it so far.

Ekls 3/17/2016

My new front load machines replaced a 40 year old top load washer that I had a sentimental attachment to. I was sad when it finally died and wasn't sure if I would be happy with my new machines. I absolutely love them. I should have done this 10 years ago. They make doing laundry fun and the clothes are so much cleaner with a lot less water and significantly less drying time.

Electrolux washer & dryer

Smbeatley 12/21/2015

Bought in April 2015, been very pleased 'except' our washer defergent drawer was not working properly as it would stick by not wanting to open. So it was just a little disappointing that we had to have new parts & repair done with it being brand new. It does work like a charm now tho.

Mimi59 9/25/2015

I purchased this washer dryer combo about a month ago and so far I am very pleased with both units. When I shopped for a new w/d, I was amazed at all the high end choices that the panel was so hard to read. I like the Electrolux because it not only has all the bells and whistles, but it is easy to see the controls and to operate. I also love the push button door and the lights in both the washer and dryer. The doors are made with steel hinges , not plastic like most and swing completely open for easier access. Overall- it was a perfect choice.

I bought this a month ago and was happy with all the options this dryer offered, however I have not been able to use the options. At current the only setting that is working on the unit is the time dry. I have been in touch the Electolux and they have been very good at sending a service tech out. I have a service appointment this week to find the solution why the dryer will not work on the settings.
