Buyer's Guide

Dryers have become a common appliance in busy homes to help get clothes dried conveniently and quickly.

Check out our top tips below for how to get the most out of your machine!
 

SORT LAUNDRY

If you sort similar clothing together this helps to ensure a consistent drying time. This means pairing heavy items together, like jeans and towels, and then doing a separate load for lighter weighted items such as t-shirts, underwear, etc.

SPIN, SPIN, SPIN

Make sure your clothes are not dripping wet before tossing them into the dryer. Clothes that are too wet can cause a longer-than-normal drying time. To avoid a longer dry time, ensure your clothes go through the spin cycle during the wash to remove excess water.
 

SELECTING THE RIGHT HEAT SETTINGS

To reduce drying time, most dryers have pre-programmed settings these days so check your manual to understand how to choose the right setting for each job.

SET THE TIMER

Make sure you set the timer on your dryer to ensure you don't waste power by over-drying your clothes. If your dryer has an auto-sensor, sit back and let the technology do all the work!

DRYER SHEETS + BALLS

Lastly, tossing in a few dryer sheets or balls helps reduce wrinkles, fight static, soften and prevent clothes from gathering lint. Plus, you can save money by making your own from old washcloths. Google for more info.
