Which is a better dryer: gas or electric?

Question

More cost efficient?

More eco friendly?

Dries better?

Is safety a concern with gas?

Answer 1

gas is way cheaper

Answer 2

Gas is more cost effective.

Eco friendly is probably electric but that depends on how the power company makes the electricity IE. Nuclear/Coal/Hydro

I have found that gas dryers are quicker to dry clothes and have less service issues.

Gas dryers have many safety features to prevent problems. All have electronic ignition now so there is no more pilot light.

Go gas. They might be slightly more expensive but they are just all around better.
