Yup, dryers consume a lot of electricity. They are high wattage machines and each drying cycle may take 20-30 mins or more.
Dryers are popular in the West due to cold seasons when you cannot dry outside. Here in Malaysia with so much sunshine I don't see the need for a dryer, unless maybe you live in a condo (but even in condo you can air dry in the yard). |

QUOTE(dayalan86 @ Jul 20 2013, 12:54 PM) Heard from one of my neighbour's who use the wash and dry combo washing machine, the whole cycle (Wash + dry) takes about 3 -4 hrs depending on the load. Does it come out completely dry? Also, I believe the drying function consumes quite a lot of power (so more expensive electricity bill). If you have space, just do normal air drying on a clothes line. |
