Thank you for mentioning us. Very cool! Very surprised at how dry our clothes get in that spin dryer. We have been using ours for a year and it's really durable. Takes very low wattage and can easily run on a solar set up. Every 3 months or so we do take the back off and clean out the filter and stuff that that collects in the hose after long term use. Other than that, we use ours 2 days a week with no issues.

Good demo, but could have been shorter. Nice machine. I have a spin dryer from Laundry Alternative online. However, its a pain to spin dry in there since you have to rearrange clothes to get the right balance, multiple times. What impressed me here, was that you just dump the clothes in, and spin. No arranging for balance. Nice feature!

Nice idea but I'm pretty sure we're not willing to give up space in our 400 for it. Just returned from a two week trip around Florida (cut short when the State closed all State Parks) and on most of our stops, we were advised we could not hang clothing to dry. We could hang our towels but nothing else. We were told this as a new policy as many visitors to the parks were Snow Birds/long term visitors and hanging clothes to dry outside would give the appearance of a trailer park and most folks didn't want to see their neighbors laundry hanging outside. I do like the laundry strips; we've always taken laundry pods, but we're switching to the environmentally friendly laundry strips.
