Tumble dryers work best when loaded within the recommended capacity range. While they have maximum limits, manufacturers advise against filling the drum completely. Ideal loads are around half to three-quarters full, allowing sufficient space for airflow and tumbling action. Underloading wastes resources through inefficient drying, while overloading strains the appliance and clothes. Different cycles have varied maximum capacities, so consulting the manual is crucial to prevent damp laundry after drying.
