Are Drying Buddies any good,

Dear all,
in an attempt to economise drying clothes, mrs has ordered me to buy a 'dry buddy', I don't trust the claims being made, has any one had the experience of them? Any comments most appreciated.

    We have used one for about a year - at first we thought it was wonderfull but it soon got very tiresome hanging the clothes and the condensation was awful -we only used it so long to justify the price we paid and to get our monies worth.

    Dont buy if you think you have no room for a dryer this thing is big as a bus lol.

    We bought a condensor dryer which is much smaller even though its a large drum one and the clothes are dry in a lot less time and the house is damp free and the dryer smells a lot better like fresh laundry - avoid the dri buddies buy a good condensor dryer.
    Save saynoto0870.com in your favorites, and stop giving companies more £££ dialling 0870 numbers when you can dial freephones or cheaper alternatives.:j
