Please define "enough wattage" so others can assist you in your quest for perfect dryness.
To answer the OP, we have a drying rack, clothes go from the machine and either get ironed and hung up or go on the rack if ironing not needed. Never had anything go stinky even when the weather isn't perfect. Perhaps you need to update your laundry technique?
We also have a tumble dryer, Madam likes to use it for towels as it "makes them fluffy".
