Best Indoor Drying Rack

I live in an apartment and I found a great way to air dry my laundry. A few weeks ago I found this product AirDry, it's a laundry rack that mounts to the ceiling and it's not using any floor space. I installed it over my bath tub. I think the website is: http://www.airdry.org

Hang Dry Clothes ---- ahhhhh choo!

I found hanging my clothes increase my allergy symtoms and also increases the amount of dusting and vacuuming I do in my home. What is saved in dryer cost is eventually spent on vacuuming from my carpets what would have been caught in the lint collector on my dryer. Is air drying clothes a true savings?

I do less than a load of laundry every week.

Considering anyone can spend 5 minutes or less on a simi-busy street and pick up a couple quarters, I don't see how this is anything but frivolous.

5 lbs of carbon dioxide is BS. Use Google/mind.
