More pointless than unsafe.


Why is putting a tumble-drier in a wasted space "pointless" ?


Tumble driers are for the most part pointless, since one only need hang
clothes up for them to dry, the driers waste money to buy, space to
keep them, and cost to run - none of which there is any need for.
People use driers beacuse they dont get their laundry routine sorted.

I'm quite sure I'm inviting criticism on this one

A close relative of mine has hung wet clothes in his flat for several
years. The mould and condensation are horrendus to the point that I
wouldn't sleep there. However, I will hang clothes outside whenever that
possible, mainly to save energy; but that is quite rare this time of year.
