Edit It's 17:08 now and it still shows 3 minutes
Edit 2 It's 17:15 now and it has been on 0 minutes for 3 full minutes....
Those aren't minutes, they're drying time units, which last as long as the dryer decides it wants them to last on any particular day.
Who the fuck programs these things? Why even have this measurement if the units are not a fixed length? Just put a light on it that says “done” or “not done”
I mean, I was just being sarcastic, but it seems like that.
These dryers also have a timed function that will allow to to over dry your clothes as much as you’d like. The auto modes use sensors that can detect clothes that still haven’t dried completely as they tumble about. Pretty hard to make precise unless you’re attaching sensors to every article in the dryer.
Prolly also need humidity and temp sensors outside the drum.
It’s an estimation, which I prefer over the vagueness of a done/not done light. I recognize that it’s not specific or reliable for any precision, but having a general idea of when it will be done is useful.
its got the vague precision of a fucking sledgehammer
says 30 minutes, could be 10, could be an hour, who knows
Ah, mine is much better than that. Usually right within 15 minutes or so
Mine typically says 2.5 hours and is done in 1.5-2h. Anyone using estimates on a minute schedule is... gonna have a bad time
Imagine getting so mad at a dryer timer. If you hate it so much don't look at it and wait until it's done
I can’t imagine
Now I'm confused, how many drying time units are in a galactic standard week?
I can understand the confusion, drying time units is actually a measure of distance not speed.
Depends how wet the week is.
A washer or dryer is never late. Nor it it early. It finishes precisely when it means to.
That old toaster post, back from the dead!
