ST Poll: Dryer repairs is almost as much as a new so I'm getting new. If you had your pick, which place would you get your appliance from? Note, I'm

Posted by just oblique (aka kkuphal) Apr 9 '18, 10:16

hoping that the place will do a bit of rearranging of the venting and switch to a side vent. Right now our dryer vents out the back. We have about 33" of space and a 25" deep dryer. At 27" wide we have a decent amount of side space on the left between the dryer and the washer. A number of dryers including the one I'm looking at have 4 way venting

So the idea would be to
1. Deliver new dryer with side vent kit (as needed)
2. Install with new venting (probably longer tubing, etc.)
3. Remove old dryer

Anyone have a preference for a retailer for home installations? Lowe's? HD? etc?

IMO, whichever of those 2 is running the better deal/coupons that particular week. - Strongbad Apr 9, 10:19
