That one Tuesday I tried drying laundry on a line vs using the dryer and the neighbor's cat claimed everything
Used to just throw everything in the dryer on high until I grabbed a shirt off the line last week and realized my clothes didn't smell like burnt dust anymore, has anyone else noticed a huge difference in how long their stuff lasts after making the switch?

Dried out collars and faded colors were just normal to me until I line dried a dark t-shirt and it actually stayed dark. That one shirt convinced me to switch and I haven't looked back. The dryer is definitely harder on everything than I ever gave it credit for.

Yeah I had that same kind of moment @reese550, but not with dark shirts. For me it was my work hoodies - the collars would always get that weird wavy crunchy look after a few dryer cycles. One time my dryer broke and I had to hang dry everything for like two weeks, and I noticed my hoodie collars were still flat and soft. Realized the elastic was getting fried in the heat. Now I hang dry most stuff unless I'm in a rush, even though it takes way longer.
