I kept burning my food or wait forever for the pan to heat up and I finally understand why. Each knob has a different direction for the Hi and Lo (also why isn’t it Low).

    My dryer has a “less dry” setting.

    Who likes their laundry done rare?

      That actually makes sense for things you want to finish drying on a line so they don’t heat up too much and shrink.

        This makes sense… But my washer defaults to this mode and I can’t figure out how to change it. By default all my clothes are almost dry.

      Mine has similar settings but they’re named in ways which actually tells you why you’d want them that way: “Ready to Iron”, “Ready to Hang” and “Extra Dry”, things like that.

      Tell me you didn’t read the manual without telling me you didn’t read the manual.

      (I didn’t read mine too, btw)

      It’s useful for when I forget about my laundry and the clothes are already mostly dry, but not completely.

      Some fabrics wrinkle when you allow them to sit in the dryer totally dry. For those you want to take them out and hang them for the last bit so when they reach their driest state they’re hanging and not crumpled within the dryer.
