Thermal Fuse 
The thermal fuse is a safety device designed to protect the dryer from overheating. The fuse is located on the blower housing or at the dryer’s heat source such as the heating element on electric dryers or at the burner on gas models. The fuse should be closed for continuity meaning it has a continuous electrical path through it when good. If overheated the fuse will have no continuity meaning the electrical path is broken and the fuse has blown. A multimeter can be used to test it for continuity. Be aware that a blown thermal fuse is an indication of a restricted exhaust vent from the dryer to the outside. Always check the dryer venting when replacing a blown thermal fuse. 

Start Switch 
To determine if the start switch is defective, attempt to start the dryer. If the dryer hums but does not start, the start switch is not at fault. If the dryer does not respond or make any noise, the start switch could be at fault. Use a multimeter to test the start switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it. 

Door Switch 
The door switch activates when the dryer door is closed. On most dryers, the door switch makes an audible clicking sound when it activates. To determine if the door switch is working, try starting your dryer and then listen for the “click.” If the door switch makes a clicking sound, it is probably not defective. If you don’t hear a click, use a multimeter to use the door switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it. 

Drive Motor 
The drive motor turns the drum and the blower wheel to exhaust the air. Before replacing the motor, first check the thermal fuse, start switch, and door switch. If all of these parts are working properly, but the motor is making a humming noise, remove the belt from the motor and check the blower wheel for obstructions. If the blower wheel is clear of obstructions, the dryer motor might be at fault. If you suspect the motor is defective, replace it. 

Belt Switch 
On most dryers, when the dryer belt breaks, the motor will still run, but the drum won’t turn. However, some dryers have a switch that shuts off power to the dryer if the drive belt is broken. If this switch fails, it could shut off power to the dryer even when the belt is not broken. First, start the dryer and then listen for a humming noise. If the dryer makes a humming noise when you try to start it, this indicates that the belt switch is not defective. Next, search for your model number to determine if your dryer has a belt switch. If your dryer has a belt switch, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it.

I bought a portable washing machine first and have been hang drying for a while. This was fine in warm weather but time consuming and a pain in the winter so I bought this item and am amazed of how well it works. I had no way to vent a regular dryer in my apartment so it is perfect with the vent less dryer attachment. Would recommend this item for anyone with very little living space. It works perfect for my family.

So thrilled with this Avanti Dryer! The convenience of having an apartment
So thrilled with this Avanti Dryer! The convenience of having an apartment size laundry appliance in the house is wonderful. The dyer is very efficient and matched to the load size of my apartment size washer. The lint filter is easy to clean. Living Direct had it in stock. It arrived in good condition and was easy to assemble. It came with a small vent. If you want to vent it outside, you will need to purchase additional venting hose and an outside vent. Thank you!

First of all, some reviewers are stating this is a "ventless" dry
First of all, some reviewers are stating this is a "ventless" dryer, and it is not. It does need to be vented. I got a venting system on Amazon for around 11 dollars, it has a vent tube and a box that you put water in, this catches what little lint comes out of the dryer and recycles the heat back into your house. Alternatively, you can vent it out a window. I chose this dryer because the all-in-one ventless dryers don't really "dry" your clothes and are more expensive. The filter system is inside the dryer on the inside back wall and works amazing. I have lots of pets and I have to say, this little guy works great, I have not seen any lint at all in the ventless lint box thingy that I purchased from Amazon. Dries everything completely too. I matched this with a danby washer #see that review# and am very happy. I live in a little beach house so there is no 220 access and no washer/dryer hookups and this works perfectly. I put it in the kitchen and dry my clothes while I'm doing other things, then push it under the table when I'm done...it is small and takes up little space. Beats going to the laundromat for sure. Plus, this company is great, shipped it out right away and prices are better than at any store. You can't beat them.

I live in a small two bedroom apartment was looking for a very small dryer
I live in a small two bedroom apartment was looking for a very small dryer that did not need to be vented outside. I watched a lot of you tube videos and did some research and came across this dryer. I purchase a Avanti Front Load Dryer and it works awesome. It is small but it works great for my son and I it. Works great on small loads but takes just a little longer on larger loads.
