Adding my 2p worth to Dollywilde’s post. You can programme the drying cycle to come on automatically as soon as the wash is finished. That’s handy if you want to wash and dry something overnight.
I don’t do that very often as I nearly always have mixed washes of things that shouldn’t be/I don’t want to tumble dry. I do agree with Dolly that if you open the door, you can check nothing is scrunched up in the corner of the drum. You don’t have to take the washing out at all but I can see why opening the door to check and giving everything a quick swoosh if needed might mean the washing comes out dryer and dried slightly more evenly.
