To provide a washing machine which reduces the shrinkage of clothing, and which has little drying unevenness.SOLUTION: In a washing machine, a drying step includes a standard drying step of drying at a predetermined specified temperature, and a low temperature drying step of drying at a temperature lower than the specified temperature. In the low temperature drying step, a heating part is heated at predetermined first strength for predetermined time, and after elapse of time, or after the detection temperature of a temperature detection part has reached a predetermined temperature prior to the elapse of time, the heating part is heated at second strength weaker than the first strength. After the detection temperature of the temperature detection part has reached a predetermined first temperature, in the case where it has reached a second temperature higher than the first temperature and lower than the specified temperature, the heating part is turned OFF, and after turning OFF, after elapse of predetermined time, the heating part is turned ON, and after turning ON, at each elapse of the predetermined time, turning OFF and turning ON are repeated for a plurality of times.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】衣類の縮みを低減し、且つ乾燥ムラが少ない洗濯機を提供することにある。【解決手段】乾燥工程は、予め定めた規定温度で乾燥する標準乾燥工程と、その規定温度より低い温度で乾燥する低温乾燥工程と、を有し、低温乾燥工程は、予め定めた時間、加熱部を予め定めた第一強度で加熱し、時間経過後、または、その時間経過前に温度検知部の検知温度が予め定めた温度に達した後に、加熱部を第一強度より弱い第二強度で加熱し、温度検知部の検知温度が、予め定めた第一の温度に達した後、第一の温度より高く且つ規定温度より低い第二の温度に達した場合に、加熱部をＯＦＦし、ＯＦＦ後、所定時間経過後に加熱部をＯＮし、ＯＮ後、所定時間経過毎に、ＯＦＦとＯＮを複数回繰り返す洗濯機の構成とする。【選択図】 図４
