If you’ve ever draped damp jeans over radiators, shuffled airers around the house, or woken up to that unmistakable musty smell, you’re in good company. I’ve tested dozens of laundry appliances over the years, and drying clothes indoors has always felt like one of those chores we just muddle through, especially over the cold UK winters. Outside, on a hot breezy day, laundry dries quickly and smells amazing. But right now, indoors? Not so much.
While re-evaluating the best dehumidifiers and heated airers for drying laundry, I stumbled across an unusual, but effective way of drying clothes at home.

You don't need a heater, a tumble dryer or anything elaborate and you can be packing t-shirts into a cupboard in one and a half hours. And it'll cost you pennies rather than pounds.
