Do you leave the dryer on if no one is home?
I just did at lunch and now I'm feeling paranoid. I'm hoping DH gets home soon.
My mom never leaves it on when no one is home, and now she has me paranoid.
Just wondering what you other ladies thought about it??

Re: Do you leave the dryer on if no one is home?
Well we had a dryer fire(not because we didn't clean the filter because we did, but from years of the filter getting pulled out lint accumulated in the machinery) So for a while I did not but now we have been again. Probably best not to

Re: Do you leave the dryer on if no one is home?
I do but I know I shouldn't
It probably isn't a great idea to have anything with heat running while you are not home- just in case...

Re: Do you leave the dryer on if no one is home?
I dont like to leave any major appliance running when Im not home...unless Im just running to the store and will be back in a few minutes.
Our dishwasher blew a hose one night....when we were home...water all over the place...I can only imagine what more damamge would have happened if we werent home to shut the water off...

Never EVER!
God forbid the lint catches fire, you're whole house will go up in flames.
Plus, I don't like to fold cold clothing. I like to fold when they are right out of the dryer warm!
