So I've gotta ask - why are you leaving the dryer door open when you
leave the room?  Wouldn't it be cheaper to just close the door than to
buy a new dryer? :)  For what it's worth, I don't know how many times
I had to pull the washer and dryer out to get a sock which had fallen
in the crack between the top-loaders before we got the front-loading
Duet (which was a gift, but I'd definitely pay for, having used them
for a while) - so make sure you put something over the gap if you do
end up with a top-loading pair.

If it makes you feel any better, the bathroom in my house is so small
that the toilet needs to be sat on kinda sideways, because the sink's
right in front of it (even with the toilet slightly angled in the room
- which is probably terrible Feng Shui).  There's barely enough room
to open the door while the room's occupied - two people require some
advanced coreography in order to get out of the room.
