To ask if you leave your Lakeland dry soon airer thingy on overnight?

[orchidsonabudget]

I am paranoid about fire risk.
Do you all leave it on?

Yes.

Not very paranoid.

Yes but generally only when I need something dry for the following morning. My mum leaves hers on overnight quite regularly

Yes.

Yes. In fact it's sometimes on for days, in the depths on winter when there's always washing to dry.

Yep. On for a couple of days non stop sometimes!
Never leave the tumble drier on when we aren't home tho.

I do. I put washing on it at bedtime, with the cover on. In the morning I remove the cover, turn it off and then put the clothes away in the afternoon.

Yes. Ditto never the tumble dryer.

I wouldn't. Not worth the risk.

I used to but mine broke, just beeps and doesn't warm up, and no one knows how to fix it

Always, it's been left solidly for a couple days before as it's a bit of a case of out of sight out of mind.

Yes. The cat really liked sleeping on it.

No because I’m paranoid. But I do trust Lakeland. I should leave it on overnight really.

Yes, daughter normally needs to dry uniform/ dry an art project/ rise dough. It has been left on for days on end...

Yes. All the time.

Yes but we put it on for 8 hours on a timer so only if we hang up wash in the evening.

Yes, tho turn off if not needed smaller airer

Only turn mine off when we go on holiday!

Yes! I like having my labour saving devices working while I sleep. To my mind it’s no different from leaving anything else electrical turned on at the mains - it doesn’t get hot enough for the heat of the bars to set anything on fire, so it would only be dangerous if something shorted out and caused it to spark. And with a fused plug that’s very unlikely anyway.

I never turn mine off.

I usually use mine as a normal clothes airer, without the heat. The stuff dries by the following day. If it's a particularly big load, or if I'm in a rush for something, I'll switch it on overnight. It never occurred to me not to!

I do but I find them generally useless anyway.

Yes. Have it on for a few days at a time regularly.

Yes, I leave it on. :)

Yes, my clothes would never dry in the winter otherwise....
