spin dryer
Moisture-extracting appliance
A spin dryer is an appliance that removes water from wet laundry by spinning it at high speed, using centrifugal force to push moisture out through perforated walls.
It differs from a tumble dryer, which uses heat.
Most modern washing machines include a spin-dry cycle.
Also spelled spin-dryer.
