This one might save power because it will only dry as long as it needs to.
Opening the door and checking will also make sure it only dries as long as it needs to.
Not really. You lose all the hot air every time you open it up and then it has to use juice to heat up again.
Right. Right. So let's make it run even longer than it needs to. That's a great solution.
It's certainly more simpler than your dumbass idea that will get the company sued when some shmuck decides to fondle the vent or some bs.
I'm sorry popping open a door for one second is too much for you. You might not be clever enough for a clothes dryer.
And that's ok. Not everyone has to be good at the very basics. Luckily there's plenty of companies willing to sell you over priced over engineered crap.
you guys are going in circles with this heated debate

(I don't have any puns better than yours, unfortunately)
if there was a way to know when to stop....
Yup. Old school timer.
Mate, most people are not interested of following laundry machine spin for 4 hours. Normal people put clothes in, go do something and get the clothes out when they hear a peep. Or 10 hours later whatever.
Four hours? Wat
My washing machine with drying program takes about 4 hours in Eco mode. But the exact time is irrelevant
That's crazy.
My washer and dryer combined is at most 3 hours IF it's heavy. But that's rare. It takes maybe an hour to two hours for a regular full load.
What is your one machine doing for four hours?
Idk it spins, wets, soaps and dries in some kind of order. Laundry machine stuff
Man i envy your bubble. You haven't met some truly dumb people.
It's a clothes dryer.
Edit. I can only assume people downvoting have a difficult time understanding washer and dryers.
So yeah, I guess you're right.
