If you want your clothes to be almost dry after unloading them, put them back in the washing machine for an extra wash cycle. The key is to place a large, clean, and completely dry terry towel next to the clothes. It’s important not to crumple it, but to gently spread it among the other items so that it has as much contact surface as possible.
As soon as you start the spin cycle at maximum speed, the dry towel will begin to absorb moisture from your wet clothes, just like a sponge in a washing machine. At the end of the cycle, the towel will feel heavy and damp, but your favorite t-shirt will be only slightly damp. A few minutes of air drying or a quick ironing are all it takes to dry it completely. The fewer items you load at once, the more noticeable the results.
Intelligent spin and airflow:
If you still need to use the dryer, it doesn’t matter how you load it. The most common mistake is stacking clothes on top of each other, thus preventing air circulation between the layers. Always place the items you need most on the edge of the dryer or well spaced from the rest of the laundry.
It’s a good idea to turn your clothes inside out after a few hours. This is because water drains more slowly from inside seams and thicker areas (like pockets or belts). Turning your clothes inside out allows air to reach previously blocked areas. It’s also helpful to place your dryer in the driest area of your home or near a dehumidifier. The dryer absorbs moisture from your clothes, speeding up drying and keeping the air fresher.
