Why should you buy MED5030MW?
-
Spacious capacity (7.0 cu. ft.)
The large drum size means you can dry full loads, bulky items (towels, bedsheets, heavy clothing) or big family laundry in one go.
-
Moisture-sensing + automatic shut-off
Built-in sensors monitor moisture and air temperature so the dryer stops automatically when clothes are adequately dry. This helps prevent over-drying and reduces wear on fabrics.
-
“Extra Power” boost for thicker fabrics
A handy “Extra Power” mode increases heat, tumbling, and time to get thicker items (jeans, heavy towels, jackets) drier the first time — good if you often wash heavy loads.
-
Quick-Dry cycle for small loads
If you need a few items dried fast (e.g. a few clothes or towels), Quick-Dry reduces waiting time vs a full cycle.
-
Wrinkle-Prevent & end-of-cycle features
If you forget laundry or can’t unload immediately, the dryer will tumble clothes periodically (with Wrinkle-Prevent) and also signal when cycle ends, avoiding clothes staying crumpled or musty.
-
Reliable build + 10-year limited parts warranty (motor & drum)
Offers peace of mind: motor and drum are backed for a decade, which speaks to expected durability and long-term reliability.
