Never. Any appliance for that matter. Even my crock pot, I use it when I am home all day.

You really shouldn't. Our good friends did and it started an electrical fire. They had to stay in a hotel for almost 6 weeks during the cleanup!

Never! I'm too paranoid to come home to a pile of ashes instead of a house

NEVER.

DH's uncle was in insurance for many years and dryer fires are a leading cause of house fires. He said that was the reasons behind most of the house fire claims he processed.
