With a flameless electric clothes dryer, it's always just right for drying inside, no matter what the weather is outside. Fact is, your dependable electric clothes dryer does a faster and better job than sunshine. Colors come out rich and true—especially those soft, delicate shades. And there’s n6 chance of sun-bleaching or other damage to fragile fabrics. Electrically dryed clothes actually look better and wear longer. Small wonder that 97 out of 100 Carolinians who buy dryers choose flameless electric. Good idea to visit your favorite electric appliance dealer or Duke Power soon.
