3.5 Cu. Ft. Portable Dryer, 13.2 lb. Capacity, 120V, BCED37 | Electric Dryer, 1500W 120V, Vented, Stainless Steel Drum, Portable Dryers for Laundry for Standard Wall Outlet

After testing it out on my bed sheets and comforter, I can attest that this dryer is fairly exceptional. I did the sheets and queen size comforter as two different loads, but it dried them just as fast, if not faster than a normal dryer. I will add though, that I had to open up the back and examine a loud noise after putting the comforter in. What I ended up discovering was that a piece of foil tape that was covering a sensor wire in the exhaust had come off partially and the air was making it create a strange screeching noise. After securing the tape and reassembling, the noise was gone, and the machine was functional as normal. At first I thought it broken immediately under the weight of a queen size comforter, but alas, it was a little piece of tape making a sound. The comforter dried in less than 30 minutes, which is phenomenal for this portable dryer. I will state that my portable washer is about as big as they come before being normal sized and it has a very good spin cycle, so that certainly helps. I would highly recommend this little dryer. I actually ordered a 3.5cu from an alternative (generic) brand for about the same price, but it arrived beat to absolute hell and wouldn't function, so I returned it immediately and opted for this Black and Decker brand. While it is smaller than a 3.5cu, it absolutely will get the job done, and potentially better than the generic brand 3.5cu. If anything, get the Black and Decker 3.5cu if you want bigger, but I think the 2.6cu is plenty enough. This little 2.6cu arrive in mint condition as well, which is always nice. I feel like it is hit or miss when ordering big appliances on Amazon. Guess I won the lottery.

This dryer works well. I’ve updated this to state that it doesn’t take as long as I originally stated. Apparently if eco mode is activated then it sets to start drying without heat and mine must’ve gotten switched to eco mode. It dries as expected on normal mode. I did have to purchase this dryer 3 times to get one that wasn’t damaged, but that wasn’t the sellers fault. The 2nd one was very damaged, but Amazon has a great return process where I only had to schedule for them to pick up the damaged dryers, and have them ship me a new one, otherwise I would not have ordered a 3rd one from them. Time will tell if it lasts for a long time.

I received my dryer today. My son in law put it up for me along with the inside dryer vent I bought to go with it since no Hook up in my apt. I have dried about 5 loads so far and I love it. Great not having to go to laundromat. Only problem is it sits really low and knob is in the bottom. Very hard for me as 64 yr old to get on my hands and knees to clean the filter and turn the knob on. I recommend getting a pedestal for it. Other than that it's great. Update: 5 weeks after buying the dryer and 6 days past the return date for Amazon my dryer quit working. Amazon has stated they can't help me and referred me to the manufacturer. Are you kidding me!! I spent this much money on this dryer and Amazon can't assist. Very poor customer service and extremely upset that dryer has quit working after only 5 weeks of service. Not happy with Amazon or the dryer. I would not buy any major appliance from Amazon ever. I certainly will not again. Also, Amazon referred me to the manufacturer. When you call it ask you too leave name and email. I looked the manufacturer up on line and they have poor customer service reviews. Reviews say they never hear from anyone from this company. Luckily I bought a warranty so trying to figure out how to use that. I will update on what my results are with filling a claim. However the fact that I am having to file a claim 5 weeks after buying is just not good customer service with Amazon! I will never spend this much money through Amazon again in the future. So mad right now and I have bought alot through Amazon, never been upset with them till now!!

I've had this little dryer for nearly 2 yrs now and it's still works as should. Keep the lint filter cleaned out after each load and replace the disposable filters. I clean that filter several times with a lint roller after each load. Push both buttons in and it will heat up and dry as it should. Yes, it takes up to 2 hrs to dry a load, but that's to be expected with a 110 dryer. It's quiet. I have the 1.7cu ft washer and the rack the dryer sits on. Installation was easy enough for my 2 grandchildren (teenagers). I'd say after 2 yrs and at least 8-10 loads per month, the durability is good. It is portable, so it can sit on a dresser, etc. or even on the floor. I'll try to upload a video or photos later.

Stopped working after a 1 -1/2 year. Was very good until it just stopped working. I took very good care of it, No over use,no heavy load,no electrical problem. Opened the back and found that the belt had broken. Ordered a replacement and installed. Worked out great and dryer is working great again.

Truly the best investment for my little apartment. The dryer is really sturdy and durable. I put it on a trolly because it’s a little on the heavier side but still able to lift and move. You have to purchase an indoor exhaust (they’re cheap) and you’re good to go. A little over two mo the and not one complaint. It’s not noisy at all but it’s also not silent lol. You won’t be upset, this is a amazing purchase for the convenience alone.

This is a five star review of the BLACK+DECKER BCED26 2.65 cu ft Compact Dryer. I've used this dryer a few times [see 1 year update below] and am very pleased with it. Using a full size washer to do a full wash, I ran this dryer three times for about one hour each time. It was about one-half to two-thirds full each time. This got things dry enough for my purposes, then I use folding bamboo drying racks to let them dry the rest of the way. This included heavier pants, some towels, t-shirts, etc. If run longer, this dryer will get things bone dry if you need it. Drying a single damp bath towel after using it after showering, it's dry in about 15 minutes. I live in a drier climate, typically 40-50% RH indoors, so things dry well when hung. For smaller items, I partially dry them, then I leave them in a laundry basket and manually tumble them a few times a day. Running the clothes through this dryer for 30-60 minutes gives them a tumble dry fluff, and then the air does the rest, which saves machine run time and energy. I'm pleased with the size of the 2.65 cu ft dryer. It wouldn't dry a comforter or large blanket easily, but normal size sheets and clothing work fine. Figure about three dryer loads to dry a large full-size washer load. For venting, I used a 28 oz can of tomatoes, opening it on both ends, so it's just a steel cylinder, with exactly a 4 inch diameter, just like dryer vent hoses. I bought a dryer hose which came with two clamps (TEAIERXY 4 Inch 8ft Dryer Flexible Insulated Vent Hose PVC Aluminum Foil with 2 Clamps). I clamped one end onto the full 4-inch diameter of the dryer output and the other onto the steel can. Be careful not to over-tighten the clamp on the dryer because the tube is plastic. Then I made a cardboard insert for my window, which opens sidewways. So the cardboard is about 5 inches wide and about three feet tall. Then I cut a hole in the bottom and inserted the steel can. (Or you can buy a pre-made window dryer vent insert). I used metal tape to tape around the edge of the cardboard where it meets the steel can, and a little above it, just to make it safer. But it doesn't get hot under normal conditions, just warm. I can hold my hand on the steel can without it burning. Then I stick that assembly into the partially open window and it vents through the window screen. It also worked okay without the cardboard, just leaving the window open and placing the vent at the window, but with the cardboard I don't need to leave the window open in cold or hot weather, and all the exhaust goes out. I also bought these dryer filters: Essential Values Compatible Replacement Filters for Bettervent Indoor Dryer Vent. I don't use them with the window venting, but they can be used for indoor venting. I just stuff one into the steel can and tape it in place a little. Works fine, but the indoor air will become warm and humid, and maybe slightly dusty. But it's usable without a window vent that way in my opinion, if need be. I got this dryer because people use dryer sheets with toxic artificial fragrance in the shared dryer where I live. Such fragrances are very unhealthy - read up on it - especially bad for kids. Even though I don't use the dryer sheets, their scent remains in the dryer and pollutes my laundry. Plus drying takes a lot of time. This way I can use their full size washer, then just bring the clothes back and dry them myself in the dryer and on racks. Works great, would work with a laundromat well too, since you don't have to wait for all the drying time by having your own dryer. I put it on a little rolling TV cart which raises it up about 18 inches. Light enough to move easily. Came packed well with cardboard, styrofoam, and plywood. Straps on the box made it easy to carry, about 65 pounds. I turned it over, opened the bottom flaps, then put it right side up and lifted the box off. I measured and it uses about 10 amps at 115 volts, about 1120 watts. I used a well-made 14 AWG, 12 amp, 50 foot extension cord, which isn't recommended, but worked okay, got slightly warm. I keep a close eye on the cord and vent temperatures when it's running just to be safe. Great dryer thus far, five stars. Controls are a little odd but one gets to know it, instructions explain. The lint trap at the back of the drum is a bit of a task to disassemble because the plastic is tight, be careful not to break it, but I think it will loosen up with use. I use an old toothbrush to clean the two filters. There is also an air intake filter, but that doesn't need to be cleaned every time. ONE YEAR UPDATE Just to update this review after about one year of use, I still really like this dryer. I upgraded my extension cord to a thicker, well-made 12 AWG 15 Amp 25 Foot one, and that works better. The cord stays completely cool. I figured out how to more easily pull the lint trap apart. Once the assembly is removed (per instructions, you rotate it until it clicks, then pull it out), I put my fingers in the finger holes on the one side, and grip the small circular piece at the center on the other side. Then just ease them apart. I clean the filter after every wash, which translates to about three 1-hour dryer runs. Between the two layers of filter, it seems to get most of the lint, I don't see any on the window screen. Using a hand-held IR temperature gauge, the air coming out of the 8-foot dryer hose generally varies between 85 F and 105 F. When the dryer hose gets to about 95 F, I know the clothes are usually dry enough for my purposes, with further air drying on the bamboo racks.

Pretty good, reliable, stable, light weight, and versatile dryer that fits in a small apartment. Had this dryer over a year and its still going strong.

Apta para espacios pequeños. Deja la ropa seca en tiempo razonable. Tiene diferentes ajustes para las diferentes necesidades, esto incluye un modo económico

Great price and an excellent dryer. Since the unit was replaced, it has been working perfectly with no issues at all. It offers fantastic value for the money and is easily one of the best bang-for-the-buck dryers available. The drum is very spacious and handles full loads effortlessly, making laundry quick and convenient. Highly recommended.

I've been rack-drying my laundry for the past couple of years - and quite happily, even if it did take a long time and took up a lot of space - so this is like super-luxury for me. Now that I have it, I don't know how I lived with out it, to be honest. It's much bigger than I pictured, even though I knew the measurements - consequently now i have to find a better place for it. Don't misunderstand - i'm thrilled, just a little taken aback by the size. I mean, when I saw the box it came in and that poor Amazon Delivery fellow struggling down my hallway with it, I thought maybe I'd ordered the wrong one. I could fit inside that box, and i'm a pretty big guy. Any way, size concerns out of the way, it's amazing. I love it. I did a "test" dry of five t-shirts, six pairs of underwear, and four pairs of socks and it took just under an hour. That may sound like a long time, but unless you're sitting watching it spin, it goes by pretty fast - and it's MUCH faster than drying on a rack. As for noise - it made noise, but nothing I found terribly irritating, just regular white noise, and with my headphones on I didn't hear a thing. One less star for ease of use - only because it took me a minute to realize what the "universal" symbols on the "auto-sense" feature meant. I had the option between O and _ . After reading the manual, I now know that O (obviously, apparently) stands for "ON". For ECO mode there's a Leaf and a T-Shirt which I figured out pretty quickly, but for some reason O and _ had me stumped. Let this be my gift to you all - O means ON. TLDR: It's bigger than you might realize unless you're good at visualizing sizes (clearly I'm not) and while the buttons may mildly confuse a cabbage-brain like mine, this is a fantastic machine and I love it to bits.

Tengo pocos días con ella pero la verdad funciona muy bien. Solo es cuestión de conectarla. De ser más grande fuera mejor pero me ayuda mucho ya que tengo una lavadora secadora y con este producto realmente termino secando la ropa lo que el otro aparato no más no me funcionaba

Producto de excelente tecnología y calidad
