My new dryer, which is significantly better in almost all aspects than my old one, has a non-adjustable very quiet alert (bell? signal? alarm?). I often can't even hear it, so I find myself completely forgetting about it until later that day or tomorrow.
I have the opposite problem. My dyer has the fucking loudest, longest, incessant cycle done noise I've ever heard from a dryer.
It buzzes at defcon 1 levels for I swear at LEAST 5 whole seconds (you count out 5 whole "Mississippis" of a fire alarm level noise and realize how long that is). And the kicker is that it does it not once, not twice, but at least three separate times. First, it repeatedly wars you that the cycle will end soon. Then it does one final triumphant wail when the cycle ends...as if you don't take the laundry out instantaneously that a bomb is going to go off or something.
I absolutely cannot fucking stand this. I don't even understand why it does this either. To me, washers should have end of cycle signals, not dryers. I've accidentally left wet clothes in the washer overnight and woken up to a horrible smell and had to rewash them. But when I leave clean clothes in the dryer? Literally zero issues occurs.
One day I'm going to figure out how to open up the damn thing and smash the buzzer.
