What happens to your dryer if the load is soaking wet?

If the load is soaking wet, it will take longer to dry in the dryer as the machine will need more time to evaporate the excess moisture. This can put strain on the dryer's motor and heating element as it works harder to dry the clothes. Over time, this extra strain can lead to premature failure of the dryer components.
