Abstract
A clothes dryer including a cabinet, a drum, a condenser, a sump, a drawer, a hose, a condensate pump, and a condensed water container. The drawer includes a bucket for receiving condensed water which overflows from the condensed water container, and a condensate discharge pipe formed at the bucket to discharge condensed water collected in the bucket. When the drawer is stored in the cabinet, the sump is connected to the condensate discharge pipe such that condensed water introduced through the condensate discharge pipe is returned to the sump. When the drawer is withdrawn from the cabinet, the sump includes a sump connection pipe separated from the condensate discharge pipe.
