Clothesline or dryer?

yeah! I agree! dryers on washing machines don't really last that long. We had one before and it just took us three to four uses before it was broke. I don't know if it's just for certain brands. What do you think?

I think in the Philippines, dryers do not last as long as here in America because the ones from there, I would say has a lower quality and breaks easily whatever brand they may be. Even the washing machines don't last as long because it is usually manual it is hard to be sure if you put enough water in it or too much clothes. I used to live there when I was a kid so I do know. The american dryers and washers are of higher quality and capacity. I can say that because they are automatic. For our washer, you just add the detergent and fabric softener, put it to the setting that are appropriate and let it do its thing. Same thing goes for the dryer, you just set it up, pop the wet clothes in, wait for it to be done or do something else.

well we used uhmm forgotten if it was ge or american home. and the bad thing about bad appliances is you tend to stay away from them for a while because of bad experience with it. we have also an experience with an electric stove.

Here in America, almost every household has one but some do use clothesline. The reason why I said it is convenient is because people here have the buying power and here in Arizona it is really hot outside when it is summer like right now. We also experience dust storms. Here, they have what is called the Home Owners Association (HOA)which controls what you can put in your neighborhood. Hanging clothesline outside is prohibited in many communities here. I do understand that you save money through the use of clothesline but here people can just pay it off. Using the dryer is very convenient if you do not have a big space at your backyard. Most houses do not have backyards. I also think that they don't like seeing undies hanging out. It is very convenient for American living because it is easy to operate and they don't break down so easily, and low maintenance. Maybe it is just not convenient for other countries like yours. I think it has something to do with the economic status of a country too because If you can't afford the electric bill then it is more convenient to do it old school.
