tumbler dryer

[grimbletart]

Sorry if this has been asked before. I recently got a tumbler dryer that has a "warm air" cycle. I presume this means it simply produces warm air without the tumbling motion. If so, can you put in clothes that say "don't tumble dry" as they are not actually going to be tumbled?

This has to be the dumbest question of the week!

I imagine that is for airing things. Does it not tell you what the different programmes are for in the manual? It's usually the heat which is the issue when it comes to shrinking or otherwise damaging things in a TD, not the tumbling.

it means warm tumble rather than hot. So it will freshen up things, and might take creases and wrinkles out, or you could put stuff in that come off the line.

In the days when people used to smoke, it was one way of reducing the smell.

The manual tells me everything but nothing about "warm air". There is already a warm tumble, a extra dry tumble and and express tumble. I think I'll shove something in it that won't hurt if it shrinks and see what happens. Thanks everyone.
