I see this all the time. Sometimes,the washer does not spin veryfast and the humidity caused during the dry cycle(timed instaed of automatic sensor drying)as well as damp clothes that need more time to dry,the PAINTED INTERIOR as aposed to STAINLESS STEEL OR PORCELAIN,oxydises and begins to rust. Ouside instalation also contributes to this oxydation.

I'd have to say a washer and dryer being used outside can't last very long. | ||

In college I rented a house that had the washer in the kitchen and the dryer out on the back porch, uncovered. It was an electric model. Even though the landlord said it was safe to use on rainy days, I never would. The though of touching an electric dryer out in the rain just seemed kind of dangerous. It was a Gibson dryer with a Norge washer in the house. | ||

! I recognize that as the portable like I've got. Going by that lint filter's color, that one has been VERY HOT! The plastic looks scorched. I'm no expert about that kind of stuff, but it's gotta be abuse. | ||

The screen where the hot air enters the dryer is also scorched. I think it's been abused too. My full size Whirlpool has been running for 10 years, and that screen is still shiny. | ||

I'd bet a box of doughnuts this dryer had clogged or damaged venting. Same goes for the "have to run it 2x @ 70 minutes" post. | ||
