Items that make life easier in a small Tokyo apartment.
Mini dryer for clothes
In general, most people dry their clothes using a drying rack on their balcony. But having a small dryer can be very helpful. Especially for:

- Winter months when drying outside takes a long time.
- Towels and thicker items that take a long time to dry.
- Solid size for a small apartment: 3.0 kg to 4.0 kg
