    Yep, Harrison used to get into our dryer all the time, and he had a terrible habit of turning it off on me without me noticing. We now have it in our garage, which is just outside our laundry... out of sight, out of mind has worked for Harry because he doesn't even give it a second glance these days.

    i have front loader and dryer on floor with bench over teh top iuts great
    DD helps me put the clothes in and push teh buttons etc
    she has never tried to get inside.

    but i keep the doors shut and they have child locks on then, you have to push a button and pull really hard to open teh door. so never been an issue

    DD also sits there and watches teh bubbles in teh washing machine it amuses her for hours lol

    Our front loader is on the ground, the dryer sits on top. DS is a CLIMBER and into everything and he has never tried to climb in....he does play with the buttons if it's on but we have a child lock on it so it doesn't interupt the cycle.

    No, surprisingly enough neither boy has attempted to get in. On the other hand, their toys regularly end up in there when one DS is hiding something from the other DS This isn't a huge problem as long as you always check in there before putting the clothes in!
