Drying without a dryer sucks big time. They call appliances "modern conveniences" for a reason.
Sure, if you're a hip cool 20-something who does a load of laundry per week air-drying is fine.
Try being a household with a couple kids and a baby under 2 and hanging your laundry everyday. It's a waste of time and frankly sucks. I've done it.
- lawn 4y agoWe have two kids and we've never used a dryer. We just hang it up in the basement and it's dry the next day, or we hang it outside on the summer and if it's sunny. Not a big deal at all.
- s1artibartfast 4y agoI find it to be less time consuming than the machine. I dry most of my clothes on hangers and store them on the same hangers. The machine was a pain in the ass. I had to check it so the clothes didn't get too hot or go too long. Once done, you have to fold or hang immediately or you get wrinkles. Now I just put them up and forget about it until later, often the next day when I want something
- woodruffw 4y agoWhat does this have to do with the article? It doesn’t claim that hanging your clothes to dry is more convenient; only more economical and environmentally friendly. Not everybody on the planet (or in the US) has selection pressures that maximize convenience. We’d probably be worse off as a society if that was our only consideration.
