Along with this 47 per cent price cut, the Neo 3 Tier Heated Airer will save you both energy and space. According to Debenhams, with its 36 heated rails, you can dry 15kg of washing for only 11p an hour.
The heated airer is also the best drying solution as it doesn’t use up the same energy as a tumble dryer or come at the same expense. Additionally, for those who don’t have a tumble dryer and have to rely on central heating or the garden, this a great alternative especially for the wet and windy weather.
Standing at 180cm, with three railed shelves, you will have plenty of space to dry your bedding, towels and clothes on this heated airer. In order to speed up the drying process further, the Neo Airer also comes with a cover to place over your clothes while they dry. Once your washing is all nice and toasty, you can easily store the Neo Airer away as the shelves are collapsible.
If you are looking for a cheaper alternative that also uses a vertical airer design, you get the Alivio Electric Heated Clothes Dryer from Debenhams for £34.99 (RRP £99.99). Alternatively, you can get the PowerDri Portable Electric Clothes Dryer from Amazon. This normally sells for £79.95, but shoppers can now get it for £59.95.
But if it’s the Neo Indoor Electric 3 Tier Heated Airer that you’re after, then you’re not alone. It has received rave reviews from Debenhams shoppers, with it garnering a respectable 4.3 star rating on their website.
One delighted customer wrote: “Works really well, drying clothes in the winter a lot quicker than before with a standard airer. It is quite a large airer but we can fit multiple loads of washing on it because of this. Easily folds away.”
Another satisfied shopper said: “My partner lives in a cottage with no heating in the kitchen and no radiators, I got him this to help dry his clothes. He was delighted when he had left them on the heater to find them warm and dry and had also warmed his kitchen.
“An absolute bonus at the small running cost and the amount of clothes he could dry on there after a day working outdoors. Highly recommended.”
A third noted: “Excellent product dries the clothes without ruining them, also heats up the room. Also you can speed up the process by covering it with the cover provided.”
While another shopper added: “Tall heated clothes dryer heats up quick. Comes with a cover to keep heat in. Dries washing in no time. Good value for money.”
However, not everyone was impressed with the electric airer, as one person explained: “Six hours later and the washing is all warm but very moist. No idea how much this is costing; I had read these were cheap to run but I could have dried three full loads of towels in a tumble dryer in the same time.”
