The type of fabric	Your drying load may contain the same type of fabric but of different
	thicknesses. Thinner items will take less time to dry. Some fabrics,
	such as those used for jeans are of closer texture than others and
	although light when dry will be heavy after washing and spinning.

How dry you want	As it takes longer to fully dry clothes than to have them ready for

Be careful not to All fabrics contain a little natural moisture even when ‘dry’ and this
