I don't notice any chlorine smell and everything gets dry without a problem. The suits are not dripping because I wrap them in the towel for the ride home, which soaks up some of the water. I can't imagine washing suits and towels every day. That seems so wasteful.
To the PP who washes their kid's suit every day -- if it's a Speedo type suit that is not a good idea. Those are supposed to be hand washed and rinsed in cold water only. They've literally been dipped in chlorine; they don't need to be cleaned with soap. Detergent and agitation causes the fabric to wear out so much faster.

Super wasteful. We hang ours on the back deck
NP. We have a pool and I know it’s clean and I also wash the suits and towels after they are used because the suits and towels smell dank if they are just hung up. Plus, OP’s problem of finding a place to hang all that wet crap. I think it’s gross to not was the suits and towels if you’ve been to a public pool where all kinds of muck could be swimming around.
And it’s not wasteful..just thrown in with the daily laundry.
