Model
Ge Profile PTD90EB*T***
Rank #347 means 346 of the 615 clothes dryer models we track cost less to run each year; the 32nd efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 32% of those models.
What does the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** cost to run per year?
Ranking #347 of 615, the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** runs at roughly $113 a year, neither the cheapest nor the priciest in its class. Adjusted for size, it is only more efficient than 32% of clothes dryer models we track, so part of its running cost comes from its capacity rather than efficiency alone. At a CEF of 3.93, its combined energy factor is the single figure that best explains how it earns its running-cost number.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Ge Profile PFD95ES*T*** at $113/yr runs a little cheaper and the Samsung DVE45B6305* at $113/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A clothes dryer typically stays in service for somewhere around 13 years; over that span, the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T***'s $113/yr adds up to roughly $1469 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

By the numbers
The Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** normalized against its whole class, so each figure means something.
What it costs you over time
Running cost is an every-year number, so it compounds. At $113/yr, here is what the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** costs about $1130. That is roughly $0 less than the class median, which would run closer to $1130 over the same ten years.
How the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** compares
The clothes dryer class we track runs from $23 to $128 a year. At $113/yr, it sits right on the class median of $113, and it is about $90 a year more than the cheapest clothes dryer to run at $23.
What drives its running cost
At 7.3 cu ft, the Ge Profile PTD90EB*T*** is a small clothes dryer for its class, which spans 3.8 to 9.2 cu ft with a median of 7.4 cu ft, and smaller clothes dryer models generally cost less to run for the same job, all else being equal. Its CEF of 3.93, above the class median of 3.93, reflects combined energy factor: a higher figure means it wrings more useful work out of every kilowatt-hour, so it is the efficiency lever to weigh against raw size.
- Heat source and Combined Energy Factor (CEF). CEF combines drying performance with standby and off-mode energy use; for a given drum size, a higher CEF means less energy per pound of laundry dried, and heat-pump models usually post the highest figures in the class.
- Drum capacity. Drum capacity sets how much laundry one cycle can hold, and heating a bigger volume of air generally costs more energy per cycle.
