Non electric gas dryers
Have been very hard to find in my recent trips to retailers.
Is this a trend? Just wondering. Project for 2010 or sooner... |

I can't imagine this being a clothes dryer since they have an electric motor to rotate the drum and exhaust fan. Does "non electric" mean whatever sort of dryer this is has some sort of pilot light instead of a glowbar ignition? |

Jon Just got concerned that I had not seen a single front loader with nat gas hookup. homedepot dot com showed me some. Have to admire LG for making one that is $500 and then another, painted a different color, and charging twice as much. Chutzpah. |

That must be why the washer and dryer that came with my house is white. My mother's were pink, but that was in 1957 before they could get away with charging more. |
