WE'RE all looking for ways to dry our clothes and keep warm for less amid the cost of living crisis.
So one woman decided to give Lakeland's £99.99 Dry:Soon Drying Pod a try to see how effective it was.
The product has been so popular that Lakeland have limited purchases to just two per household.
In the description for the drying pod, they write: "Getting your clothes dry much faster than most electric clothes airers, and far more gentle on fabrics than the rough and tumble of a conventional tumble dryer, the pod has a fan built into the base that heats air up to 70°C and then blows it up into and dries your clothes."
Journalist Emma Gill was lucky enough to get her hands on one, and told the Manchester Evening News that she was thrilled with how well it dried her clothes.
"I put one load of laundry in it, including thicker jogging bottoms, school trousers and even jeans, and in two hours they were dry," she said.

"There was the odd little damp patch when I turned the fan off, but the room then stayed warm enough to finish them off completely in about half an hour."
She also found an added bonus with the pod.
"It makes the room you're using it in warm too," she explained.
"Within minutes of it being on I had to take my jumper off as I was getting too hot – a rarity these days, but I wasn't complaining."
