Hallelujah! The famous Aldi heated clothes airer is coming back.

The Aldi winged heated clothes airer is a real bargain, coming in £30 cheaper than Robert Dyas' almost identical sellout heated airer. 

It has 20 individual heating tubes, providing a large surface for drying bed sheets and towels quickly, and plenty of space to hang t-shirts, trousers and socks. For under £40, you'll be freed from the constant sight of a drying rack of damp clothes in the living room through winter. 

The 230W Aldi heated clothes airer is also lightweight and has foldable wings, so will fit in easily with utility room storage ideas or under the bed/sofa. When you have a load of washing ready for drying, simply unfold it and plug it in.

Unfortunately, the airer is being classed as a Special Buy, so won't be available to buy online. But with the Lakeland heated clothes airier also back this week, it seems that stock levels are finally increasing.

That said, many of weren't successful in the heated clothes airer Hunger Games of 2022, so if you're one of that crowd, then it's worth snapping one up with you still can.

Heated clothes airers have seen a huge increase in search as people look for cheaper ways to get their laundry done after the rise in the energy price cap. Given the higher cost of running a tumble dryer, costing around 60p to dry a load of laundry quickly in 8 hours it could help you save money in the long run.

Our Ideal Home Deputy Print Editor Ginvera Benedetti invested in an Aldi heated airer when they first launched and hasn't looked back since.

'I bought two Aldi heated clothes airers when my son was born to help with the extra washing we'd have with a newborn,' says Ginevra. 'They're sturdy, easy to pack away and dry clothes quickly. My son turns 8 next week and they're still going strong. In winter, they're a total must-have, unless, of course, you have a tumble dryer - which I don't!'
