Good but NOT SAFE (out of the box)
Having read a few reviews mentioning melting plugs etc I thought I'd give it a once over before use (as I am a tech council registered Incorporated engineer specialising in electrical engineering).The first thing I noticed was the smell, it's hard to quantify to the layman but it smells strongly of cheap electronics; it might burn off in time but it really does. I actually wondered if it was already burned out. Next onto the source of people's worries - the plug. CE marked (as the unit is) and 3A rated which sounds about right for a unit that, at 200 Watts would draw around 1 amp. However, on checking the fuse I find a 13 amp fuse. In the event of a failure the plug would indeed burn out before the fuse blows. Another thing that doesn't seem right to me I'd the lack of an ingress protection (IP rating), if I were designing this item I would probably aim for IP 54 at least (splash proof).To sum up, the unit seems OK and works well (though not sure for how long) but if you are buying it then check, and change the fuse to 3 Amp. Other points, never operate it unattended (or overnight) and never put dripping footwear on there.

Oh, hella yeah 5*
The reviews were mixed. It was a third of the price of other models. I was sceptical and left it for a year before reviewing. Works excellent. Post menopausal, sweaty, medicated and on feet in work boots all day. I use the same pair of work boots daily and needed to be able to dry them out before the next day. Leaving them to air dry at the open window only works in the summer and when it's not raining. It feels like an ionic hair diffuser heat when in use. So, it's low and slow. I put the boots on for anywhere between 25 and 95 minutes, depending on how wet the boots are. And in the winter it warms them up for me. Going out in minus temperatures, on a mobility scooter, in winter now feels like a luxury. When the winter hits again I'm going to try them on my gloves too. PS..it reduces the time needed in between needing to antibacterial shoes as they don't stay wet; but, does not stop the need to do this. 5*

How did I EVER get by without this!
I'm 48 years old and live rural in the Scottish Highlands, and constantly switch between 3 pairs of boots, so more often than not I have a pair sitting with the laces and insoles removed to air-dry.A friend put me onto this drier. At £15 I was sceptical but decided to give it a go. My scepticism was further increased when one of the extending arms kept falling back and failed to lock in place, but I persevered.BRILLIANT BIT OF KIT! It speeds up drying by hours, is a doddle to use and store, and I have got into the habit of just leaving my boots on them, even when not in use. For the money I simply cannot fault it!

Small bit not sturdy but great price
I've recently started using the Renogy Boot Dryer on my hiking boots, and it's been a game-changer. After long hikes, my boots used to take ages to dry out, but with this dryer, it only takes 20 minutes to get them feeling fresh and comfortable again. The heat blower works efficiently, ensuring that every nook and cranny of my boots dries thoroughly. I particularly appreciate the adjustable rack, which allows me to position my boots just right for optimal drying. The folding design is a great touch, making it convenient to store when not in use. Overall, this is an excellent investment for anyone who wants to extend the life and comfort of their footwear. Highly recommended!

Good for the peice banding
Easy to collapse flat for storage.Effective, dries dog walking boots in less than an hour. Easy to use.Only downside is that with bigger boots sometimes it falls over.

It really works!
I was slightly sceptical, but this little machine actually works! It is a bit plasticky, so doesn't feel particularly premium, but for the price I can forgive that. On the plus side, it's surprisingly customisable, allowing you to offset the timer and adjust how long it dry for. The arms can also be extended if you're drying boots. I use it for my cycling shoes and running shoes - pop them on and set it off for 20 mins and they are dry. Probably better to keep it in a garage or pain cave, as it does fill the room with a sweaty shoe smell, but kind of expected. All in all, a good buy that actually solves a problem 👌

Quick drying
Got for drying disgusting sweaty cycling shoes after turbo sessions. Does the job spot on with the 20minute default cycle.Compact design, seemingly efficient drying only downside is it's pretty noisy but that's why it's quick, moves air doesn't just warm.

Where have you been all my life.
Apsolute game changer dry boots in 20-25 mins. Was a bit sceptical at 1st but it's amazing no more damp smelly boots drying in the hallway. Been using it for 2 weeks and Personally I think it could benefit from a bigger fan to cut down on running costs also a few more vent holes apart from that it's brilliant I just recommend it to my rugby team
