I couldn't agree more. After reading article I'm kind of confused about the praise. First of all, vast majority of population just dry their clothes outside. I'd say, while this is installed in many bathrooms - it's used rarely. Maybe during rainy season. The thing is, it's highly ineffective and there is not a lot of drying poles installed. It doesn't work well even for bathroom towels, not to mention for the full laundry.

The more useful trick, that I didn't know from home (EU) is underwear drying rack. Small rack on a hook with plenty of clips attached. Back at home, we used to put our socks and panties next to everything else on a big rack. This small drying rack makes it much more effective.

Is the drying rack you're taking about the thing that's typically used with socks? That is, something like https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/x-10421217/?

I think so, although the ones you’d get at Daiso in Japan would fashion a rectangular, foldable design.

I think he means an electrically heated drying rack. Usually attached to the wall. Sort of like a heating element but you can easily hang your clothes on it.

Something like this. They come in many sizes. Big ones for clothes, small ones for socks and underwear.
