Hello people.

I have been living in Finland for nearly 10 years now and I have only ever used communal tumble drying machine. I know it's not great for clothes if they have delicate fabrics but it's quite good and intuitive for me since I'm a guy and I mostly wear sports or thick clothes that don't require much care. Also when I clean, I can just throw my clothes in there and that's it. I found it quite sufficient for the Lumo time alotment policy I used to live with (once a week, 2hrs maximum per time for one person).

But recently I moved into an apartment building with this kind of wardrobe dryer and it's been quite a puzzle to me to figure out the right way to set up my clothes for maximum dying efficiency within an hour. I took this picture while still loading the clothes but otherwise there's much more clothes. I set the machine to extra since it's supposedly for thick clothes but the last time I did it, the clothes didn't dry evenly especially the spots where the clothes fold in half on the bar.

So, what gives? Is it a bug or a feature that you can/should only dry a small number of clothing items? Consequentially, should I book more times in a week instead of doing it like I used to in the past (1/week, 2hrs/laundry session)?
