No joke!
GE wasn't kidding when they called the drum on their new GE Profile dryer Colossal Capacity. The amount of space in the DPVH880GJMG is absolutely gargantuan. To call it mega-sized doesn't even begin to do justice in describing the 7.5 cubic foot drum capacity. This staggering figure is the largest available in any domestic dryer. It might be a slight exaggeration to say that this is how circuses dry their tents, but it's no tall tale to say that there's more than enough room to wash king-sized bedding in this washer. Or, for more common washloads, you can fit at least 17 pairs of jeans in the DPVH880GJMG. With these larger-than-life numbers, it's no wonder at all why GE called it Colossal Capacity.
They're not out to get you!
Did you know your washer can communicate with your dryer? Don't worry, though, their plans are far from nefarious. It's just GE's CleanSpeak communication system. This allows you to connect a serial cable between your washer and dryer, at which point your washer will tell the dryer presets what to use to give you better clothes care, increased time savings, and greater convenience. Combine that with the DuoDry sensor-based drying system and numerous pre-programmed cycles, and your dryer knows how best to care for just about any load of laundry. Appliances don't get any smarter than that!
Baffling? Not really, just clever.
In order to dry specialty items like hats, shoes, delicates, or even slacks in most driers, you have to purchase a separate rack insert, try to put it in place, take it out when you're done, and store it somewhere. GE thought enough was enough. So on their new Profile dryer, they included a baffle rack system. What this does is provides a quick easy way for drying clothes you don't want tumbled. On the DPV880GJMG, the rack is built-in, but not fixed, as is the drying hook. To use the rack for something like shoes, simply rotate the drum to the correct position, then pull the rack from the left baffle across to the right baffle and hook it in. In order to hang something like a dress shirt, simply pull down the hook from the top baffle and you're ready for a no-spin cycle! They're just as easy to put back. You can purchase an additional removable wire rack, but with the convenience of the built-in rack and hook system of the dryer, you'll probably never need it. This system is innovation at its best.
Drumroll please
A lot of thought went into the drum of the DPV880GJMG. The material is stainless steel. This metal is becoming more and more popular among appliance manufacturers these days. This is because stainless steel is very effective at resisting rust, and it's very durable. It won't chip or peel. However, it's also used as the drum material for many appliances because of the added benefit of its smoothness. It won't snag or tear clothes, so it helps your favorite garments look better and last longer. But the material wasn't the only consideration in the drum design. The drum's rotation was also given plenty of thought. This model actually uses a reverse tumble system, so it changes rotation direction multiple times during the cycle to bring you gentle, fast, even drying of your laundry loads. You can see how much attention was payed to even the smallest details of the drum to bring your clothes the best, most efficient care possible.
Too many choices? Nah.
The DPVH880GJMG combines the latest in technology with almost human-like intelligence. It comes preprogrammed knowing the best care for a plethora of different load types, almost like it has cleaning instincts. It can also "listen" to input from the washer (with a serial cable and CleanSpeak) to get information on how better to care for your laundry. Finally, it uses advanced DuoDry sensors to determine when your load of sopping laundry is dry as well as making adjustments mid-cycle. All cycles can be customized with different options for temperature, spin speed, time, and dampness level. The following are the cycles it knows the moment you take it out of the box: Standard cycles: (sensor): cottons, normal/mixed load, wrinkle-free, active wear, delicates, and speed dry. (Timed): dewrinkle, warm up (for that just-out of the dryer feel on clothes that were already dry), and air fluff (tumbles without heat; great for preventing wrinkles). Timed dry: with the timed dry option, you can adjust the drying time in 10-minute intervals up to 2.5 hours at your desired temperature. Sensor dry: allows you to choose a dryness level, and the load will stop once the built-in sensors have determined that the clothes have reached the desired amount of moisture content. My cycle: the my cycle option allows you to create, use, and store customized drying cycles so you can adjust the settings to "just how you like them."
Anything but average
Call it bold. Call it edgy. Call it futuristic. Call it triangular. Call it what you want, just don't call it ordinary. The eye-catching styling of the DPVH880GJMG immediately sets it apart from any other dryer you've ever seen. This dryer refuses to conform to the traditional, white washer, round or square-door protocol that's existed for years in the appliance world. Instead, it calls attention to itself with its stunning design cues and Champagne finish. Rest assured, if you're looking for an escape from mediocre design, the DPVH880GJMG is more than happy to oblige. But the really cool part is that the triangular glass door is as purposeful as it is visually intriguing. This door design makes loading and unloading the dryer easier than traditional round-door or even rectangular-door models. So if you're looking for a dryer design with function and form, look no further than this GE Profile model.
Sleep easy
GE believes in quality work. That's why they guarantee this dryer model with a full 1-year parts and labor warranty, with even longer warranties for certain parts of the dryer. For even better protection, consider purchasing an extended warranty through vanns.com. This adds up to 4 years to your appliance warranty. Today, many people who purchase extended warranties end up being glad they did. If the product has an issue that it needs repairing, usually a warranty is much cheaper than paying to have the product serviced, and is always cheaper than replacing the product. Vann's offers some of the best extended warranties in the nation. For details, go to accessories. And, if you buy a five-year extended warranty and don't end up using it (and we hope you don't have to), you get 50% of the cost of the warranty back as in-store credit. Ensure your washer is protected! Look into extended warranty today.
A match made in heaven
It wouldn't make much sense to pair the DPVH880GJMG with, for example, a white Bosch washer, or a green LG. Since the day it first left the assembly line, this model has had an exact soulmate, a perfect match out there which it's meant to be inseparable from. This dryer is designed to be paired with a WPDH8800JMG. This GE Profile washer (sold separately) has identical coloring to the Champagne dryer, as well as the same styling, so they go together perfectly. Besides, CleanSpeak only works when you pair the Profile washer with a Profile dryer.
Put it on a pedestal
If you've already gotten a chance to look at the WPDH8800JMG washer model, chances are you've already realized the great convenience advantages of the SmartDispense pedestal. But where does that leave the dryer, since it doesn't use detergent? Don't worry. GE thought of that. So they built another pedestal. This pedestal, model SPSD157JMG raises the height of your dryer by about 15". This makes it perfect for matching the washer with a SmartDispense pedestal, or even if you don't have the SmartDispense pedestal, makes retrieving your clothes from the frontload appliance easier. Not only does it serve to raise the height of the dryer, though, it also provides additional storage space for laundry supplies like bleach and dryer sheets. You can even use it to temporarily store clothes while waiting for a hamper. This is the ultimate in convenience for your dryer.
Two motors are better than one
The DPVH880GJMG is built with two motors. Why two, you ask? Well, it's simple. On your standard one-motor dryer, any loads that are larger or heavier slow the motor down, using most of its power just to turn the loaded Colossal Capacity drum, and leaving very little to get rid of the exhaust. On the profile model, though, one motor is used to turn the drum while the other circulates the air. This not only results in faster spin speeds and drying times, but also lets the motors last longer and gives you the freedom for up to 150 feet of ducting problem-free. This is one case where there sure is strength in numbers.
