Conclusion:
Samsung follow a simple, yet successful business philosophy: they devote their talent and modern technology in order to create superior products. Samsung DV457EVGS has 8” LCD touch screen and is controlled with Smart Control. As with any other smart dryer on today’s market, you’ll have to pay extra money for smart features. But, don’t worry; the energy-efficiency will save you some money in energy bills. The lack of towel cycle is pretty big drawback for me, but if that’s okay with you, then you should opt for this dryer.
