	Well I can say that my sheets don't wear out more easily I never line dry these days and don't find any difference in the length of time things last.

	I used to have a tumble dryer. It was rarely used, and the filter was cleaned quite often. However, it caught fire one evening, when it wasn't on! Fortunately, it was near to the back door, so I heaved it out onto the path, I've managed very well without one since - that's about 25 years! Now I think about it - the microwave also 'randomly' caught fire not long after - and both the microwave and tumble drier were both plugged into the same double socket. Perhaps the socket was faulty. I've since moved, and I bought a new microwave at Christmas. I've just realised it's plugged in near the back door...
