Ensure you buy the correct fuel type (gas vs. electric), as they use entirely different hookups. Look for moisture sensors, which prevent over-drying and save energy.
A typical dryer lasts 10 to 13 years with proper maintenance. Gas dryers tend to last slightly longer than electric models. Signs of end-of-life include clothes taking multiple cycles to dry, excessive heat on the exterior, unusual banging or squealing noises, and a burning smell during operation.
