New Hotpoint Electric Dryer Comparison

[SawaSun]

I've spent the last half hour comparing these two basic Hotpoint electric dryers and have become frustrated trying to decipher the differences between them to determine which one is better, assuming both are the same price.

I've looked at up close pictures of the control panels and don't see where one has one more cycle than the other. Both seem to have cycle cool down and wrinkle free on the control panels but the description comparison says otherwise. One does have a powder coated steel drum.

I would appreciate any help/insights. There seem to be slight feature differences between them that aren't apparent on the control panel, but since I haven't bought a dryer in many years, am unsure about their benefit.

Not much difference.  The EM ending model has the more powerful blower that can be used on a longer run of your vent and the ED ending has reverseable door.  If interested go the THD and look at both.   We had the GE version of these and only got a new one so we could stack the dryer on our FL washer.  Gave to a son and his family and still running fine.  I like the front inside lint filter.
