Hey folks, it is an electric dryer, so I can't go overboard here, but this unit is fairly easy to use-I say that because for years I have been using the old style dryers where you loaded clothes, guessed at how long you wanted to run the dryer for and turned it on. 

This is my first AMANA Dryer and first of the "new wave" of energy star appliances I have purchased.  The dryer has a "brain" to it.  It senses weight and moisture content.  All you need to do is load the clothes, select which cycle you want to run-wrinkle guard, reg. dry, delicates, etc and push THAT knob.  You also need to push the button to turn the dryer on.  That is what makes it different over any other dryers I have had.  I hooked mine up to one of those "in line free heat devices"-you know the ones that allow you to vent the heat and moisture that normally goes outside into the house and I am provided with even more energy savings, because I get added heat to what is otherwise an unheated room
