Mom-ninja. Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I need a new dryer. Merry Christmas to me. These things are programed to break down during the holiday season aren't they? :glare: It's been awhile since I've shopped for a new dryer. What is this steam function option? Useful? Waste of money? I do want to buy a sensor dry machine, but I don't know about the steam. It ups the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 We have it on ours. One is a steam "freshening" cycle, and one is some sort of steam "sterilizing" thingy--not sterilzing, but something like that. Anyway, I tried the longer cycle on pillows and they smelled a little burned or something. The freshening one was ok. I wouldn't really go for it again. You can de-wrinkle something just by throwing it in with a damp towel. That's good enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted November 26, 2012 Author Share Posted November 26, 2012 Thanks. That's what I was thinking. I've gotten along without steam function before this and I'll manage fine without it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somo_chickenlady Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Our dryer has a steam function, basically just for removing wrinkles from dry clothing. I have only used it a handful of times in the past two years that we have had it, and just regular dry heat works well enough for that function, so I probably wouldn't get it again.
