FINALLY, a dryer that works!!I've tried just about every boot dryer on the market, and, in my opinion, the Hedgehogs are the only dryers worth buying. Works exactly as advertised, quick and efficient....most things are dry within 30 minutes. We use it for everything: ski boots/gloves, kids' hockey skates and gloves, running shoes, my fishing waders. My wife even unscrewed the plastic ends on the top drying arms and used them to dry and sanitize some old olive oil bottles! Love this thing so much we even bought an Octopus model as well. Easy to set up, dries quickly, definitely helps with smell, not too loud, and easy to move around (we even traveled with ours to Tahoe). HIGHLY recommend.
