# LG Electric Dryer (DLEX4000 series)

**Dryer — Matching Electric** — DealCoconut researched pick in Major Appliances
Canonical page: https://www.dealcoconut.com/p/dryer-lg.html

- Current price: $898.00 (MSRP $1,099.00)
- Known low: $898.00 (holiday promos)
- Buy timing: **Fair price** — Same promo rhythm as the washer — the pair on a holiday event is the play.
- Reliability: **5/5** — Same top-tier LG service record as the washer. One maintenance truth outweighs any brand choice: clean the lint duct yearly — clogged ducts are the #1 dryer killer and a fire risk, and no warranty covers neglect.
- Price note: typical promo price — buy as a pair with the washer for bundle discounts

**Why this pick:** The matching half of the most reliable laundry pair in the service data. Dryers are simple machines — heater, drum, motor — so brand service rates and sensor quality are the whole game, and LG leads both.

**What it beat:** Paying extra for steam/sanitize cycles you'll use twice, and mismatched washer/dryer brands that forfeit pair discounts and stacking.

**Cheaper alternative:** Buy the pair on a holiday promo — washer+dryer bundles routinely save $200–400 over separates.

## Common questions
- Heat pump instead? — Miele's heat-pump dryers are gentler and vent-free but cost $700+ more and dry slower; worth it for condos without venting, luxury otherwise.
- Gas vs electric? — If a gas line exists, the DLGX equivalent costs ~$100 more and pennies less per load; either is fine.
