Tagging for #SolarPunkSunday! The best clothes dryer!
Nature Punk@DoomsdaysCW It's so weird to lots of Europeans that the US sort of forgot how to dry clothes in the post war period. Like it was a sign of poverty to not burn dinosaurs to dry something that was wet even in parts of the country with sun and light breezes for 10 months of the year :)
I can only imagine how dryer culture looks to people outside our wealthy northern hemisphere bubble.
Kat the Leopardess@naturepunk @DoomsdaysCW I would also say that there is a decent amount of things that discourage prople from having a clothes drying line
One person mentioned HOAs, which definirely discourage the practice. Also, not all of us live in a place where there is a suitable place to hang it. Def would argue that some generations are likely disinclined amd disincentivized from hang drying our things.
NoorIf you don't have a suitable place to hang lines for your clothes to dry, there are drying racks (a.k.a. "clothes horses") that you can fold together and stow away when not in use. These have existed for ages, in various forms.
Simplicator@kchr @Catwoman69y2k @naturepunk @DoomsdaysCW This one is a little pricey but absolutely worth it because of how much non-overlapping clothes hanging you can do with it, not clothes draping over each other that take forever to dry like with most designs https://www.lehmans.com/product/16-arm-floor-dryer/
16-Arm Floor Dryer
A true laundry saver for those with limited storage space. Just extend dryer and pull out each wooden arm for an easy, generous drying area. When you're done, it compacts for minimal storage. Crafted of durable, smoothly sanded wood with strong metal components. Beautiful craftsmanship with stainless steel hardware 16 arms can rotate in a circular motion When open 42-3/4H x 53-1/2OD 6-1/4 lb USA made Note: Not recommended for blankets and other heavy items.
Lehman's makes some good stuff that lasts! Every once in a while, I splurge on item from them, @Simplicator .
@DoomsdaysCW @kchr @Catwoman69y2k @naturepunk Indeed, & if in a rush, this plus a fan (or a fan-driven space heater if one is feeling spicy) make up a reasonably speedy clothes dryer, even in an apartment
Oh wow, nice design. Looks like it is much easier to fold and takes up less space than the one I am using, and made out of wood :-)
