Choosing a quality clothes dryer at home

Today, there are many dryers that differ in the material of manufacture, design and, in fact, their intended purpose. Namely, they are:

• Floor standing.
• Wall mounted.
• Ceiling.

It will be more appropriate to consider each type of dryer separately, so as not to make a mistake in your choice.

Important! Whichever type of dryer you choose, keep in mind that the best material in all respects is stainless steel.

Choosing floor clothes dryers

Such dryers can be installed wherever you want in any free place. The appliance is easy to fold and clean after drying.

They differ in the type of construction, the length of the drying cables and the materials.

Important! If you need the largest dryer, then pay attention to the endurance of its design, because the longer the cables are, the more clothes you can hang on it, which means that it will have to withstand a heavy load.

Device

By design, they are as follows:

• Most of the models are laid out horizontally and consists of two side and a large main part.
• A vertical clothes dryer will not be so convenient to use.

Materials

Types of dryers depending on the material:

• Aluminum dryers are able to withstand maximum loads, while the cables can be made of durable plastic. Such structures are not susceptible to corrosion and rust.
• Plastic dryers. Such models cannot be called the most durable, so they should not be overloaded.
• Floor clothes dryers made of stainless steel serve for a very long time and do not oxidize, therefore, with proper care, they can be used for years.

Important! It is very important to consider the distance between the drying cables. It is better if it is larger, preferably more than five centimeters. Otherwise, the linen will turn sour. When things are too close together dry, they remain wet in the folds.

Therefore, give preference to models where the distance is seven to nine centimeters.You definitely don’t need to take too cheap a dryer, because they are made from low-quality aluminum and they often break.

Choosing a wall dryer

A fairly convenient option for dryers - they have a wall configuration. But they also have disadvantages - they are very difficult to install, and they are not able to withstand a large number of things.

Important! As a rule, they have only five to six drying cables with a length of not more than thirty centimeters.

• An obvious plus is the possibility of folding, which allows you to free up a lot of space.
• Here you can also adjust the distance between the cables.
• They are installed on the walls, often in the bathroom - they move apart like accordions.
• When such a dryer is folded, it can be used to dry towels.

Important! Sometimes they are still installed on two walls opposite each other. Outwardly, they look aesthetically pleasing, but they do not withstand heavy weight.

How to choose a ceiling dryer?

Naturally, they are most suitable for installation on balconies, but if it is not in the apartment, then you can use the free space in the bathroom.

The advantages of such designs are quite obvious, because:

• fasten them easily;
• at the same time you can hang a lot of linen;
• cables can be adjusted in height;
• the devices themselves are quite compact and inexpensive.

Important! You can install it as high as possible, right under the very ceiling, and it becomes, due to this, almost invisible.
