Temprium CD011 3.5 cu. ft. Dryer

In this temprium cd011 3.5 cu. ft. dryer review, the verdict is simple: the Temprium CD011 is the best small electric dryer for apartments in our 2026 guide, where it lands at #6 of 9 models. It runs on 120V power, measures 22.0 by 19.3 by 26.4 inches, and holds 3.5 cu. ft., which works out to about 13 pounds of laundry per cycle. The $329.99 price and the 4.6-star average (the top score in this ranking, drawn from 44 Amazon ratings) make it a practical pick for renters and small households. However, the compact frame is the whole point here, so expect apartment-sized loads rather than family-sized ones.

Its 1400W heater reaches up to 140°F, and eight programs (Cotton, Wool, Down Wear, Refresh, Bedding, Underwear, Mix and Express) mean wool and down get their own cycles instead of one generic setting. In practice, the Anti-Crease function keeps the drum tumbling intermittently after the cycle ends, so clothes sit longer without deep wrinkles. A three-layer filter traps hair, pet fur and dust, and the door swings to 105 degrees for easier loading. On top of that, the Temprium CD011 stops automatically if you open the door mid-cycle, and you can place it on a countertop, the floor, or a bracket you supply yourself. The exhaust pipe ships in the box; the bracket does not.

Value for money looks strong at $329.99, because the full-size electric dryers in this guide cost more once you add a 240V outlet install, which many apartments will not allow. Even so, 3.5 cu. ft. and a 1400W heater mean longer cycles than a 240V machine, and towels take noticeably more time, so this is not a family's weekly laundry solution. By contrast, larger models in this guide dry a king comforter in one pass, while the Temprium CD011 is built for two-person households, small closets and short daily loads. Meanwhile, the 1-year manufacturer warranty and the DOE and ETL listings add peace of mind, and the #2 spot in Amazon's Clothes Dryers category shows buyers put it to work. If space, not speed, is your limit, this is the one to get.
