to tumble or not to tumble?

I'm currently pregnant and thinking of getting a tumble dryer when our bean arrives. I know that it'll make everything a lot easier especially as we don't have an airing cupboard or outside drying space.
I'm a bit stuck as to what type/make to get? ideally it would be one that does the job but doesn't use too much power/money and isn't extortionate!
I literally have no idea about tumble dryers as we never had one when I was growing up, I've only ever used one of those massive industrial sized ones at the laundrette which don't seem to have too many options...help!

I don't tumble dry our clothes as worried they about them all shrinking - as well as the increase in electricity bill!

Interesting to read Valiumredhead say that she doesn't particularly notice the increase in the electricity bill (I'll be gettting a proper dryer before you know it). Ours is a washer dryer and I only use the dryer for towels at present.
