Same. Ours also uses a timer to re-check in 15 minutes if nobody is home. That way one of us gets alerted when we’re actually home and can do something about it.

It also doesn’t alert us between 11pm and 8am so we don’t get woken up if we start a late night load.

    Due to two things:

    1. The fact that our washer and dryer are actually out in our garage.

    And,

    1. We live in a very hot and humid area, which accelerates mold and mildew.

    We just don't start loads that will be unattended, even for a few hours. Because laundry left in the washer for even as little as an additional 45 minutes will need, at a minimum, to be rewashed, or possibly even just completely thrown out, as our clothes would have begun to get very mildewed indeed.
