Joy Mangano CloseDrier, hmmm

I had the earlier version years ago, I used it weekly and worked great for 2-3 years.  I like that the control are now on top I am planning to purchse this version.

I imagine that the poles are like the ones you use to hold up a pop-up tent, they have that bungee cord material inside them. So you use those 2 poles to hold up the exterior of the unit. The fan and heat source must be in the bottom. I’m sure the heat source is not very strong at all, thus the need to contain it, and also not heat other areas unnecessarily. And there is would be a bar at the top to hang damp garments. My concern would be water dripping into the electrical and shorting it out, if in fact this is how it is designed. I’m just guessing at this point. Seems to me you could hang your clothes in the shower and place a box fan blowing on them to do the same job, less a heat source.

I’ll be watching Joy present, I can’t help myself, but I seriously doubt that I will purchase. I will wait and read the reviews that it gets. 

Interesting…she’s supposed to be on this weekend. Since it’s new, I assume that she’ll demo it. It looks like you undo side latches on the device and then lift it up? If you look very close at those pics, there is a handle on top next to the control panel. I’m curious to know what hold up the structure. Oh and, it looks like a zippered, fabric enclosure.

Wow, that is definitely an interesting product.  Great idea if you have a lot of items you don’t want to tumble dry, and reasonably priced.  I would even consider buying it if I lived in an apartment with shared laundry facilities.  You could do your wash in the shared washer, but then take it back to your apartment to dry.  Or, just wash items in the sink by hand and then put them in there to dry.  Or, take them down to the river to wash…hahaha!  Maybe not that last one.
