Product review (5 stars): A must for apartment hand washing routine!
Our apartment has shared laundry, so when we decided on using clothing diapers with our newborn, we knew that we had to hand wash in our suite and dry on a drying rack. At first, my husband was adamant that he could wring out the diapers with his hand, every night after washing them, to put on our clothes drying rack... After one try of this routine, he quickly learned that he couldn't wring out enough water for the diapers to dry in time (wife is always right). So in comes this spin dryer.
This spin dryer and a nice compact size, and does an extremely good job of getting excess water out of wet laundry. Just 2 or 3 minutes in the spin dryer, and everything comes out slightly damp. Even our cloth diapers, which in some spots are 6 layers of cotton fabric sewn together, get dry enough that if we put them on a drying rack overnight in a warm heated room, they will dry by the morning. It's been fabulous, and we wouldn't be abel to execute our cloth diapering regime without this power horse.
I plan to use this spin dryer for hand washed items, like items that bleed for the first several washes, or in between washes where I just need a few items. If you have similar cloth diapering needs, or need an alternative to using your apartment shared laundry, this is the item to have. You won't regret it!
