Lakeland heated airer??

[mumandco]

Thinking of getting one but have a few questions so if you have one I would be sooo grateful if you answered the questions.

Do you rate it??
Is it just the airer you use to dry your clothes or other methods like a tumble etc
How quick do you find items dry?

My mum got one and sent it back.
She said it would take things a long time to dry but would be ideal for toasting things off if still damp when they come off the line.
She said you could dry light things like shirts on it though.


Lots of people rate them though :\ xx

Me 2. We have a vented tumble dryer at the moment but it's breaking it takes nearly 2 1/2 hours to dry clothes (my poor electric bill) plus we ave to have it in our bedroom as there is no space for it but need the space in our room now.

With the airer I could put it in the lounge overnight so we won't miss the space as everyone will be sleeping

I was looking into getting one of these too but concerned about the time and cost.

I want one too. We already have built in versions of this in the bathroom (not nice chrome ones but white enamel) and those work really well it's just you can't fit much at all on them. We have an 'x wing' airer in the hall and it takes 24-48 hours to dry one load of laundry on it. We always have at least 10 loads of laundry outstanding and I think if we had this its not going to completely get rid of it all but maybe cut it down to 4-6 loads outstanding instead. We do have room for a dryer but the way our kitchen is designed it would be quite awkward to fit it in xx
