Agree somewhat. However, here is a Google response to a question about fire in a home:
"What appliance causes the most house fires?

Cooking Ranges – Even after controlling for human error, stoves and ovens cause a lot of fires. ...
Clothes Washers and Dryers – It's no secret that clogged lint traps cause dryer fires. ...
Dishwashers – Dishwashers are the second most common source of a kitchen fire caused by non-cooking appliances.
