  When shopping for a clothes dryer, determine which features and specifications are requirements and which ones are simply nice to have. After making a list of dryer requirements, learning more about dryers that could be a good match is important. For people interested in an electric dryer with a large load capacity, the Kenmore 700 has a number of useful features that make laundering clothes easier.
  
  

General Specifications

• The Kenmore 700 (Model Number 02669722000/UPC 883049150192) is an electric dryer, and the power cord is purchased separately. It has a four-way venting option, including left, right, rear and bottom. The unit is not "stackable," meaning that it cannot be placed on top of or below the washer. An installation kit and maintenance agreement are available and purchased separately.
  
  

Size and Color

• The height of the dryer is 43.375 inches from the ground to the top of the control panel, with an overall depth of 29.5 inches and an overall width of 27 inches. The weight is 135 lbs. The dryer is white with a silver metallic console.
  
  

Load Capacity

• A large load capacity is essential when purchasing a dryer for a family. The Kenmore 700 dryer has a load capacity of 7.5 cubic feet and can hold and dry between 13 and 15 lbs. The amount of clothes the appliance can dry at once is determined by two factors: how wet the clothes are and the fabric of the clothes.
  
  

Loading

• Dryers can have one of two loading designs: top or front. The Kenmore 700 dryer has a front loading capacity, meaning that a porthole in the front of the dryer is where clothes are loaded. This porthole allows for viewing the clothes as they are drying.
  
  

Moisture

• The Kenmore 700 dryer has a moisture sensor that identifies when the clothes are finished drying, which is helpful because you can save energy by not wasting time running the dryer after clothes are already dry.
  
  

Additional Features

• Additional features of the Kenmore 700 dryer include a special air dry cycle, a large items cycle, a special cycle for towels, a touch-up dry feature, an end-of-cycle signal, five temperature settings and gentle drying.
