[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 426791, member: 6969"] Tumble dryers don't catch fire because they are faulty, or because there's a manufacturing fault. they catch fire because of neglect and operator error. Quite how this one has not yet ignited is beyond me: [ATTACH]7263[/ATTACH] What you are seeing there is the vent hose of the TD just lying on the garage floor. that's a solid trail of dried up fluff eminating from the end of the hose across the garage floor. I expect had I cared to look, the whole hose would be full of fluff, just waiting to ignite. Some people and the way they live just astound me. If it had caught fire, no doubt they would be blaming the poor manufacturer and demanding a product recall. [/QUOTE]
