A laundry dryer control method comprising: setting the dryer to a default drying operation; performing the default drying operation when a user selects the default setting and does not select a dry boost setting; and performing a non-default drying operation when a user selects the default setting and does select a dry boost setting. In default operation, the dryer operates the drum and fan, and operates supplemental drying mechanism according to a predetermined schedule of 'on' cycles and “off” cycles. If dry boost is selected, or if another non-default cycle is selected, the dryer operates the drum, fan and supplemental drying mechanism using a temperature feedback control loop, and operates until the laundry reaches a first dryness threshold.

Laundry dryer control system

A laundry machine comprising a housing, a drum in the housing, a door movable to close and open access to the drum, and a door latch assembly. The door latch assembly has a bolt that is movable between first and second bolt positions, with first position on a first travel path of the door, and the second position on a second travel path of the door. The door has a bolt handle connected to the bolt to move the bolt between the bolt positions. A catch is mounted within the first travel path and not within the second travel path, and configured to engage the bolt to exert an opening force opposing movement of the bolt along the first travel path upon movement of the door from the closed door position towards the open door position.
