Splendide Dryer TVM63X

[JGetgood]

We have the above clothes dryer in our MH. It seems to take a long time to dry a load, approximately 1+ hour. I just completed a remove / check / reinstall of the unit and all seems OK.

Is this normal for this unit?

Thanks for your help.

To follow the original post, after doing 3 loads yesterday I now know that 2 hours is the average time to dry each load. By those that have replied we are certainly taking much longer than others. I guess I'll call the manufacturer to determine what I am missing? Thanks to all.

I have the Splendide Ariston model dryer and I can dry a full washer load in 50 minutes or less. I even run my washer and dryer at the same time without issues and have for years. Check your dryer vent and the outside vent for obstructions.

depends on how good or what speed you set spin cycle for in the washing machine but 45-60 minute is about right for a 120V dryer
I have the whirlpool stcking units in my unit and it takes about 45-60 minutes for sure

While the clothes are still damp, remove them, fold them, and put them back in for the drying cycle. Very few wrinkles...magic! Don't believe it..:h..try it one time, you'll thank me...:B..Dennis

You could have saved alot of work if you would have posted here first.

Remember the perment press wash leaves more water in the clothes and this will increase the time also.

LOL we just learned to love wrinkles

No question drying is slow. We simply allow for it and DW pulls stuff out while damp and hangs it inside so stuff doesn't wrinkle so bad. Ours tends to run a load pretty much every day....start in the morning and by the time we get back from golf it's done.....magic.

You need to remember that these RV dryers are 110v units and not the 220v units that most of us are used to dealing with at home. The are just not capable of drying as quickly as a home unit.
