I hate my £40 heated airer – I bought it to stop using my tumble dryer but it’s driving me mental | The Sun
THEY'RE selling out across the country as people are hoping they can use them instead of their tumble dryers.
But one woman who forked out for a heated airer has admitted it's driving her "mental".
Kelly took to TikTok to share her thoughts about the airer she'd bought, as she said she'd even got a cover for it too.
"I thought in an ideal world, I'd be putting the clothes on before I go to bed and then I wake up in the morning, and the clothes are dry," she said.
"Is it f**k! It's not dry.
"I have to turn it every couple of hours – it's just driving me mental!"

Kelly went on to say that while someone had recommended the DrySoon from Lakeland, she wasn't sure about getting one because they're expensive when you factor in the cover too.
"I don't know what to do," she mused.
"I need one I can put the clothes on overnight, I get up in the morning and it's dry and it doesn't cost the earth to run.
"Like this one cost me like 7p an hour, which is fine. I can leave that on overnight. That's fine.

"I don't want one that's like 50p an hour because I'll be skint."
Asking people for recommendations for heated airers, she added: "We have a lot of jogging bottoms, because of Andrew, a lot of jeans.
"So big items, hoodies.
"I need to put things on before I go to bed about 10 o'clock at night, and then I get up around about 6, 7 o'clockish.
"So, yeah, any recommendations would be good."
The comments section was quickly filled with people offering their own suggestions, with one writing: "I've got the dry soon one without the cover.
"I use a duvet cover to go over it to help keep the heat in, dries over night, think its about 6p an hour."
"You cannot beat a dehumidifier, absolutely brilliant for drying washing and cutting condensation down," another added.
"The heated airers, I use for pants and socks!"
"I had a Lakeland, cost 3p hour, when I wake up it’s all dry – best thing I every bought," a third commented.
"Well you've made my mind up I was going to buy one, won't bother now," someone else wrote.
