No musty basement odor. No fumes. Just clean, dry, radiant heat--like the sun gives. All electric dryers are fully automatic (a good deal more dependable than the sun). Fast, too. You can dry a load of cottons in 25 to 30 minutes-- and for only 6^ worth of electricity !-• You'll notice that all the "no vent" dryers are electric. Heat, lint and moisture just disappear down the drain. Your laundry area stays clean, dry and comfortable. Why not see yonr dectric appliance dealer?
