Why does my Smeg Dryer take so long to dry?

  Denise MorrisAug 15, 2025
  If your Smeg Dryer is taking too long to dry your clothes, several factors could be the cause. The fibre filters (both interior and exterior) might be clogged, so wash them with warm water and let them dry. The condenser front could be blocked, so clean it. Also, check that the ventilation grills aren't obstructed, and ensure the room is well-ventilated by opening a door or window. A lime layer might have formed on the humidity sensor, requiring cleaning. Avoid overloading the dryer and ensure your laundry is adequately wrung before drying.
