My dryer seems to work okay. Although it struggles with tying sheets in knots. I didn't know the boyscouts were manufacturing appliances.

Still, it doesn't take too long to dry my clothes (about 40 minutes for a load), although its load size isn't as large as a full-size separate washer and dryer.

Dry clothes win, gonna have a ham on whole wheat sandwich to celebrate.

HIMS,
I think my big problem is I had an old hot dryer. The old one was on its 4th or 5th washer and second wife when it died. 40 years is pretty good for a dryer. I had been using it for 25 years.
I think all dryers like knots.
At Solitaire,
I do believe it is 220 since it has the standard dryer plug and its own breaker.
And yes, I generally do bigger loads.

^Ahah, the bake your bread in it kind of dryer.

@Solitaire1: only if you aren't doing a quick wash cycle. Atlhough my dryer works pretty well. Except with sheets. Curse those sheets Both the washer and dryer like making tangling cords out of them.

red_phoenix · 01-21-2016, 04:56 PM

Maybe you need new sheets.

HomeInMyShoes · 01-21-2016, 04:59 PM

^No, it does it with new and old or are you suggesting that I give up washing sheets and just get new ones every time?

red_phoenix · 01-21-2016, 05:15 PM

Getting new sheets every time might work in theory but since they also need to be washed before using seems to defeat the purpose.

My washer and dryer like to tie towels in knots. Guess it's not as ambitious as your set.

HomeInMyShoes · 01-21-2016, 05:52 PM

Towels too. I think of it as rambunctious. I'm still working out the optimal ratio of large and small items to make this not happen because sometimes it is better.

Perhaps the solution is taking them to the cleaners. Wait a second, it's a cleaning-mafia conspiracy...

Today's sheet decided to swallow the cup towels.
