ALDI’S sell-out clothes dryer is back this weekend – and it costs just 8p to run per hour.
When the supermarket’s Folded Wing Heated Airer first launched in stores, it was a sell-out success with customers.
Thankfully, the 230W heated airer is coming back to Aldi stores from Sunday October 9, but you’ll have to be quick to get your hands on it.
The £39.99 product has 20 heating tubes that rapidly heat up as soon as it’s plugged in, meaning people don’t have to wait long for clothes to dry.
And perfect for houses and flats of all sizes, it has large, adjustable wings that can be extended depending on your washing load.
But shoppers better be quick as, as with all Specialbuys once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Aldi claims that this heated airer costs up to 8p to run for an hour – which is what Uswitch estimates the average cost of running one is.
So if you use it three times a week and keep it on for four hours, that costs £9.36 over the year.
It marks a significant saving compared to what it would cost if you used a tumble dryer instead.
According to Uswitch, it costs 67p per cycle to run your tumble dryer.

The most obvious way to save money is to opt hanging out your laundry on a clothes horse – or outside – to let them dry naturally instead.
It won't cost you a penny, but with temperatures dipping as autumn hits, keep in mind that getting your load dry could take longer.
You could also save money on washing your clothes too.
Which? has worked out that the average washing machine costs about £38 a year to run four washes a week.
If you reduced the temperature to 30°C then it would only cost £25, saving £13, and lowering it to 20°C will make it roughly £14 to run, saving £24.
Previously, an Aldi shopper raved about picking up the airer for just £7.99 from her local store.
