  am I killing my bamboo dipes? (Days_Fly_By)
Posted: 11:02:12 am on 4/29/2010 Modified: Never
 
I was watching Nappy Lady videos on YouTube (shush, lol) and she mentioned that bamboo cannot withstand the high temps of tumble drying as it is a delicate fabric? Is this so? I am slowly replacing my ancient stash of cotton ME diapers with all bamboo, but I always tumble dry them because they take f-o-r-e-v-e-r to line dry and I would need, like, 30 of them if half of them were spending entire days out on the line drying. I don't want to ruin my diapers but I don't know that I can afford 30, either. - Dawn

I have 24 bamboo diapers.  I originally had issues with drying and thought I needed more but then I figured out if I wash at night, I put them on the hanging rack and they are dry by the next night (inside).  It's too cold to put outside yet.

I don't know... I always tumble dry my bamboo and I know lots of people do! But I haven't used it long term (only for the past eight months) so can't comment on longevity.

I have read that too about over drying them. I've begun to dry them on Normal setting and than hanging them to dry completely. Bamboo is such a sensitive fabric I find.
