I love this thing... I'm actually thinking about getting another one... Just to make things easier on myself... Crazy Abt the bed linen being clean..

Stops working after a few uses — only blows minimal cold air now. Save your money and buy another portable dryer on the market.

Don’t waste your money if you need something long term. I loved this product for a bit then it stopped drying my clothes. Such a waste of electricity.

This product is described as a portable clothes dryer. It's a very nice idea, and there are things to like about it, but it is not very efficient at drying clothes.The product comes partially assembled in just a plain cardboard box. It includes a storage bag you can use to fold the item down and store it away if desired. Assembly requires no tools, and once you understand the process it takes about 8 minutes for one adult to put it together. Basically the outer frame folds upward, and you just connect 6 cross-pieces and 4 braces, all of which snap into place. Then you pull the blue covering over the constructed frame, and velcro it along the bottom. To disassemble, you just reverse the process and shove everything into the stuff sack.The key to this unit is the heater, which in the manual they call the "host", which sits at the bottom of the unit. This is the equivalent of a small space heater. It draws 1500W, and has a mechanical timer that can be set to up to 180 minutes (or a permanent "on" setting, not recommended.) It has a 2-prong plug, and can be plugged into any US 110-120V polarized outlet. The host blows hot air upward into the bag, essentially drying the clothes through forced air induction.There are two problems with the design. First, as is very clear, the clothes in this unit do not move. There are no openly moving parts. You hang the clothes in the bag, and warm air gets blown on them. This means that the clothes dry unevenly - the portions of any item resting on the crossbars (or on a hangar) only get air flow from one side and remain damp much longer than the rest of the items.The second, larger problem is that there is no seal between the host and the bottom of the bag. The bottom of the bag has a square hole, and it kind of lays on top of the host, so that the host can blow air up into the bag. This does work, and air does fill the bag; however, because there is no seal, much of the hot air gets blown out along the bottom outside of the bag, escaping into the room, rather than flowing upward through the bag. Most of the blue bag seals up with velcro and zippers, but the lack of any type of seal at the bottom means that a good percentage (maybe 30-40%?) of the hot air from the host never makes it into the bag, it just blows out into the room.This is problematic for two reasons - first, the clothes don't dry well. Using my regular washing machine, I washed a small load, did the full spin that any standard washer does, and pulled out one adult large 100% white cotton T-Shirt, and one adult large pair of white cotton shorts at the end of the wash cycle. I put just these two items in this unit, laying them over the middle rack.It took 85 minutes for them to dry completely... and the lack of motion meant that they were stiff and creased rather than fluffed.The second problem is that the room in which you use this dryer will get warm. I live in a two-bedroom apartment in San Jose, CA. Right now it's December, and using this unit has literally warmed my apartment up nicely. However, in the summer time, using this unit would be impossible, as it would overheat the apartment to unbearable levels.So, as I said, this is a nice idea. I liked the thought of it. I want and need a portable clothes dryer. And while as I said this does work; for me, in practice, it's not a solution, it doesn't work well enough to justify the electricity costs and resulting ambient heating.

This portable electric clothes drying machine is a handy item to have around.I had two reasons for ordering this item. The number one reason that I am glad to have this clothes drying machine around is that my electric clothes dryer is very old. I inherited it about thirteen years ago. It was probably already a few years old back then. I have replaced several small parts on it over the years but once the motor goes I will need a way to dry my laundry until I can get a replacement.The second reason that I wanted this clothes drying machine was for those times when there is no regular electrical power available. I can crank up my gas powered generator and dry small batches of clothes using this drying machine. Due to one or two natural disasters in recent years I have had to wash clothes in a bucket and hang them around the house to air dry. I could only hope that they would be dry by the morning when they were needed. Air drying clothing usually leaves it feeling cold and stiff, this clothes drying machine blows warm air which thankfully leaves the clothing feeling soft.This portable electric clothes drying machine is easy to assemble. The main frame is already put together. It folds in and out for setup and take down. It is very lightweight. Attach to the unfolded frame the 3 long and the 3 short stabilizing rods, four plastic corner braces and then, pull the plastic covering over the top of the frame. The assembly is almost done.The final step in the assembly of this clothes drying machine is adding the heater blower machine to the bottom rack. The heater blower machine uses a two prong polarized plug, no special outlet is required.A storage bag is included to keep or to carry this clothes dryer in. I do wish that some fasteners had been included to secure the stabilizing rods and the plastic corner braces together. I worry that if the storage bag was turned upside down some of those individual pieces might fall out of the bag's opening. The bag's drawstring closure does not close fully.I will remove one star because the bottom of the plastic covering for the dryer has a square opening which fits over the top of the heater blower machine. The square opening needs to be weighted down with something like a square silicone insert so that it sits flat on top of the machine. Some of the hot air blowing out of the machine was impeded by the plastic of that square opening because it did not sit flat.I think that this portable electric clothes drying machine is handy to have around.Four stars!

Makes the room hot as heck. But does it's job perfectly.

Bought for use in MH. Works great and folds up to store in the bag provided. Dries delicates, sweatshirts, and small towels perfectly. Great directions and easy to use and set up.
