I thought as much. The people who invented the Odryer were on The Business on RTE radio. They consulted with a professional for what to charge. When they came back to the studio they decided on a price that people "would be prepared to pay for a tumble-dryer". That kind of thinking doesn't make sense. Surely they should base it on the cost price of producing and delivering the thing and then add on a bit more for profit. But just plucking a figure out of the air because people had been paying that price for the electrical product is absolutely ridiculous! Wonder if that price includes installation?

It's a great idea and I was originally interested in getting one, but far too pricey for me. Washing-line snobs would jump at it!!! lol!

My washing line is broken at present but I will be getting it fixed. For the winter I'm thinking of setting something up in the garage.
