I've never wanted a tumble dryer before, but I have to be honest after seeing how much softer my nappies were last week with just 20mins at low heat I am very tempted now

We're debating just getting a cheap second hand dryer tbh, as we're gonna have a utility room once we move (Hurrah! lol)

Utility room? I'm I'd love a utility room!
I think you're much better off getting a separate dryer as they're meant to be far more effective. When we move I really want a dryer but dh wants a dishwasher so not sure who'll win as I can see the merits of both!
