Is it worth it compared to what? A gas dryer or hanging on the line? And what are your variables? Are you plumbed for gas and/or have available electric outlets. Are you on solar power or just Helco? Give us more details if you want a more relevant answer.

I've got plenty of solar power and no helco. My question was more about are these things even worth acquiring. Do they even dry well? Does 1200-1400 watts even do the job? Propane is always an answer, but free power is well, free...

don't seem to be drying today.
Do you have metal poles to support the clothesline? Are they tall enough and well grounded, to attract a lightning bolt for the high voltage "instant dry" setting? “Facts fall from the poetic observer as ripe seeds.” -Henry Thoreau

i'm on solar, and use a propane dryer. works great for me. i also have a covered clothesline in my carport that comes in handy quite often.

Been using propane here for several years. Works well.
