When it comes to fire prevention in the home you can’t be too careful. I worked for quite a few home builders. You wouldn’t believe how dumb some people can be. We had one woman used to leave her dryer going all day while she went to work. A neighbor noticed smoke coming out of this woman’s laundry room one day. Wind up was she had a lint fire. Firemen had to break her front door down(this was a $700,000, 5,000 sq. ft. home, etched-glass front door at $1,500) to put it out and when the woman came home she was p!ssed they did!

Why would it go all day? No automatic shutoff?
