I laughed at her description of the drying rack 'holding more than a regular load of clothing'. My (American) clothes washer easily holds more than twice what she has displayed.

I doubt your washing machine or dryer can simultaneously dry 25 pairs of blue jeans, which would fit on the rack. Let alone the 50 you’re suggesting.

  You should definitely avoid putting any Smurf DNA in your washing machine. Edit: previous comment was washing pairs of blue genes ;)

  Well, if you're using the washing machine to dry clothes, you're going to have a bit of a problem...

    Plenty of them do both functions. I default to calling it a washing machine because both functions fall under that heading.

      The ones that do both have much lower drying capacities, often around 50%

  This rack will fold after putting more than 5-6 pairs of jeans. On a side note: does USA really treat this as a novelty? Drying racks? European style windows? https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/4kjsnp/european_windows_are_awesome/ https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/4kjsnp/european_win...

    What? Mine is hollow steel tubes + wires, 20€, it will hold about 12 using only the center section and it won't be even close to abuse. I only see it bending if putting heavy clothes on the side racks.

  You’re totally underestimating the size of our dryers. 50 might be close to the limit but I think I could manage that in mine.

    What you can physically fit isn’t the same as what they can actually dry effectively. Typically their sized so a washing machine is half the capacity of a dryer because you can fill a washing machine 2/3 up but you only want a dryer at 1/3 capacity. https://blog.bellinghamelectric.com/dryer-buying-guide https://blog.bellinghamelectric.com/dryer-buying-guide In other words 50 adult blue jeans would take roughly a 75 cubic foot dryer to dry effectively. Which probably exists in some industrial settings but I doubt you have that at home.
