Turns out dryers are pretty simple and mostly all decent. It’s the washers that are more complex and you should choose wisely.
I spent like 4 days looking at videos about dryers anyway. It’s like, the most exciting thing to happen this month.
At least my clothes come out dry in one cycle now.
I’ve never had an issue with my washer, and I’m not gonna spend $600+ just to have a matching set, but when it goes I’ll probably swap it for a front load. Despite a little more maintenance they tend to wash better and spin faster so they will dry even faster.
I might also consider replacing it if I move into a space where stacking them makes sense.
Spinning faster seemed to damage my clothes faster. I just use medium now, and it’s back to what I expected. Clothes come out much, much cleaner than my old top load.
I would avoid Samsung. Their designs require a sacrificial plate for wear, but they do not use one.
Hmm I wouldn’t think that spinning faster would do much. I mean, what’s the difference? Once it gets going any decent speed the clothes should be pinned against the walls so going faster just kind of compresses them, which I wouldn’t expect to do much in terms of damage. Interesting.
