I would go out with the dishwasher or the washing machine running...but not the dryer.

No, I never leave appliances on. It scares me way too much. I know I would be anxious the whole time wondering if my house was still there.

yeah, I always leave them running...the only thing I don't completely trust is the crock pot.

Dishwasher or dryer, yes. Washer, no. We are in a condo and our neighbor's washer once backed up into our utility area. I would be nervous of that happening to them and us not being there. Then again, it was their kid who robbed us so I don't know why I care.

Washer, dryer, dishwasher, A/C is all fine...but nothing else.

Oh and the computer. I barely turn it off. Just let the screen saver run since I read that it uses more energy to turn it on and off then to just let it run on screen saver.

No. Too many times the dishwasher has leaked on me and I don't trust a fire in the dryer.

I'm surprised at how many of you wouldn't leave the house with the dryer on.. I wouldn't leave the house with the washing machine on only for the fact that I like to put my clothes into the dryer as soon as they are washed. Everything else.... I just go... candles too

eta... I wouldn't leave the house however if I had the oven on... one time I did, but that was because my sister was on her way over and I knew she would be there soon to watch my roast Chat Icon

While we have a laundry room now, when we have a house, I will not leave them running and not be home. I unplug the coffee pot, toaster oven and make sure everything is off. Too paranoid.

nope... never leave any appliances running when i'm not home.... DHs best friend is a firefighter, and hes told us waaay too many stories of appliances causeing fires or floods when people weren't home....
if i have a load in the dryer and have to go out, i'll turn it off before i leave and write myself a note to turn it back on when i get back... its not worth the risk, imo...
