Can you tell me if this dryer is worth the asking price of $200? Owner says it is 3 years old and she bought it new. It's a Kenmore 90 series gas dryer, model #110.70912990, The serial number is: MJ3801044. Thanks, Brenda:rolleyes:

I think that price is a little on the high side, but it's in the ball park. Try to get it for $150. This model seems to have more motors go out then other models. Make sure you check it out very carefuly. If the motor is ok,they're very good dryers. Hope this helped............Rick

Yes, your reply has helped. Any tips on what to look for when checking out the motor? Thank you for the price suggestion as well. Brenda

Your welcome Brenda, the only thing I can tell you about the motor is listen for the motor to make a loud buzz or humm just before it starts. This is a good sign it's on its way out. Let it run for 20 mins. if possible, then start and stop it several times. Good-Luck,Rick
