FIRSTLY, THE BAD NEWS:
2. If you stop using your tumble dryer you can save more than $150 a year on your electricity bills. And we're told that's going up too. Turn off the dryer right now!
3. Putting your clothing and laundry into the dryer reduces the life span of the garments... yes that's right - you know the lint you pull out of the dryer, that's not dust - that's your clothing... tiny fibres of cotton and other fabrics are pulled from your clothing as they spin in the tumble dryer. Seams become weaker and frayed, there's more chance of your clothing pilling... remember that next time you forget to enter the filter for a few months and find a clump in there.3B. Leaving lint in your dryer significantly increases the cost of running a household dryer and leaves your clothes spinning forever - it takes much longer with lint in the filter to dry garments. Who needs to remember to clean the dryer filter after every use, I'd rather be outside in the sunshine hanging out towels in the sunshine and spend the money I'm saving at the movies (another expense, who can afford to go and watch a 3 hour movie in 3D... with popcorn, and coke - and if they can convince you - a SUPERSIZE ME on that please!)
4. We all love that fresh feeling of sheets straight out of the dryer, but FACT: sunlight does a much better job of creating that oh so fresh feeling. Sunlight kills bacteria so your sheets will feel fresher and towels will absorb moisture better. There is a certain amount of condensation created in the tumble dryer. Have a think - sunny day, bit of a breeze - sheets can dry in 15 minutes! Straight out of the wash and into the tumble dryer for over 30 minutes and I don't know about you, but my CO2 chomping Home Brand dryer leaves my sheets damp so I don't do it anymore... not to mention they start getting all crumpled up and heaven forbid if they're left in there overnight, crumple city!
5. Oh, and if you don't have a tumble dryer, well - get ready to fork out hundreds and hundreds of dollars just to own one, and that's before you even turn it on!
NOW THE GOOD NEWS!
1. Ezyline uses no electricity, so there's no CO2 emissions and no bills to pay. You don't have to remember to switch it off when you go out, and every time you use Ezyline you can think of your electricity bill going down each time.
2. Ezyline is recyclable - ever seen the pile of dryers and washing machines at your local tip or left outside your neighbours house. Council clean up won't take your dryer away, no... you need pay for it to be removed and have it act as land fill!
3. Ezyline will last for years out in the sun without having to be replaced. One person would require about 4 metres of Ezyline, $30! Calculated over 12-15 years (because Ezyline is UV-stabilised and guaranteed for 5 years but will last up to 12-15 even longer)... that's $2 per year! That's a chocolate bar!
3B. If you're thinking about ordinary pegs, we all know the facts - broken pegs going under the mower, catching the dog chewing them, having the kids fling them off the line, forgetting to take them when you go camping and always having to replace them! Oh, not to mention they can rust and stain clothing.
4. Drying your clothes outside or undercover with Ezyline = fresh fresh fresh, all the way! The sun will kill bacteria in your clothing, sheets and towels (and socks - ew!).
5. Does the tumble dryer come in a range of 7 colours (like Ezyline does)?
6. Can you fold your tumble dryer up and take it on holidays - in your backpack (like you can with Ezyline)?
7. How many price, brand and product comparisons do you need to go through before buying a dryer (not like Ezyline - we're a one stop shop!)
