I like our new Samsung dryer as it plays a tune when it's done plus I get a notification on my phone. When our washing machine eventually breaks I want one that has similar features so it's easier to keep track.

I wish I had that old style buzzer you could hear throughout the house - I can’t hear that little tune unless I’m already in the basement.

At the time, phone notification was like $300 /machine more, which seemed excessive (although I’m tempted to do a weekend project to build something)

So realistically, the innovation I most appreciate is accurate time estimate and a digital display. I just set a timer wherever I am

Ah yes ours just gives a notification when it's ready. Plus the display will always show how much time is left and it'll show up in the app as well. If its not dry yet it'll adjust the timer but it always gives an estimate on when it should be finished (time left as well as the expected time it will be finished).

I can hear the tune from the other room, but I like the notification on my phone as a bonus!
