A laundry treating apparatus comprises a drum receiving clothes; a fan supplying air to the drum; a heater heating the air supplied to the drum; and a dry level sensing unit determining a dry level of the clothes. A control method comprises setting a dry time; supplying air to the clothes by operating the fan or operating the fan and the heater, and controlled to be performed for the dry time; and resetting the dry time, when the dry level measured by the dry level sensing unit at a time past a preset reference time period from the start of the air supply step is less than a preset reference dry level, wherein resetting the dry time step adds more time to the reference time period.

Control method for laundry treating apparatus

A dryer, including a cabinet with an entry hole, a door being installed in the entry hole, a drum disposed within the cabinet, an evaporator disposed within the cabinet to remove moisture from air circulating through the drum by condensing the moisture, a condensate housing disposed within the cabinet to collect condensate from the evaporator, a drawer space disposed under the entry hole, a drawer disposed in the drawer space to be rotated based on one side of the drawer and pulled out from the drawer space, a condensate discharge container to store the condensate moved from the condensate housing, the condensate discharge container being detachably held in the drawer, and exposed to a user when the drawer is pulled out, and a guide supporter to couple a cabinet-side structure and a drawer-side structure and to guide the rotation of the drawer with respect to the cabinet.
