Well, Danny, everyone has to evaluate their own situation and preferences. In the four years I lived in SD, we had 7 people in the house the first yr, 6 in the 2nd-4th (we made a young cousin move out once gainfully employed), always with two little (4 yrs old when we moved there, 8 yrs old by the time we left) twin kids, complete with uniforms and their tendency to go through clean clothes like a hot knife through butter. In those four years, I think I can count on one hand the number of times we had to deal with rain preventing us from getting dry clothes. So for us, buying a mechanical dryer just never seemed worth it...
