Morning, all. DH says we need a tumble dryer, but I'm not completely sold. Here are my concerns:
- We don't have much space in the house so it would probably have to go in the garage
- I'm concerned about cloth-shrinkage (can this be avoided?)
And the reasons for:
- House is old and prone to damp
- Crowded house (not the band!) means we are drying washing in DD's bedroom all the time in the cooler months, so a tumble dryer would mean we wouldn't have to do this
We bought a dehumidifier in February which has helped with drying washing and has kept the damp at bay, but given that we have just come out of a hot summer, I think that has been a factor, too.
I wondered if we should get a washer/tumble dryer-in-one. We currently have an 8kg load washing machine for our family of 6.
Thoughts, please!
