PEET, Advantage, 4-Shoe & Boot Dryer, Electric Dryer for Ski Boots, Athletic Shoes, Skates, Sneakers & Hunting/Outdoor Gear

I never thought my favorite household item would be a boot dryer. In Kodiak, AK it rains a lot. We also spend a lot of time in the rivers & at the beach and the kids play soccer & do everything else in the rain too.After researching all the options, I bought the PEET Dryer Advantage M07F 4 Shoe Electric Express Dryer. We have a family of four with at least 4 pairs of wet shoes/boots per day. We use ours almost every day & it works without fail.The timer on this dryer is nice to have and the option of heat/no heat drying is a great feature. After pouring out standing water from my kids' boots, I put them on the dryer and they're dry in 1-2 hours. It works well enough that we can dry the whole family's boots in under 4 hours. As a previous reviewer said, if you're drying just one pair of boots, you can remove the boot attachments from two of the posts & use a book or something similar to cover them, forcing all the air to your single pair of shoes. It would be nice if you could set it for one pair or for two. But this is really not a deal breaker.When your shoes stay wet, they tend to smell REALLY sour. By using this dryer, it takes away all the nasty smell too. Also great for drying gloves or warming them up before you head out into the cold.This unit is really quiet. I use it in my laundry room with the door open (you can't hear it anywhere else in the house.)I bought a pair of extenders for $10 for drying taller boots (like waders.) PEET Dryer H2-B Two 12-inch DryPort Boot Extension Attachment Those are worth the extra money. Thank you, PEET, for an amazing product. And thanks to Amazon for fast shipping to Kodiak!!

Great boot dryer, that I use year-round.

I do obstacle course races. My shoes get wet man, real wet. Like go run through a lake then run through about 6 more miles of mud. When you finish that take your shoes off and put a garden hose in them and rinse them out. That's the kind of thing that happens to my shoes. For drying I took the insoles out and dried them separately, wrapping them in a small towel and just standing on them for a little. Move to a dry spot on the towel and repeat. The shoes were put on the dryer for 4 hours with heat. The two open ends were capped off with 2" PVC pipe caps (perfect fit). After 4 hours the shoes were virtually dry except for maybe some dampness on the outside area of the heels of the shoe and that's splitting hairs probably. So I put them on there for another 2 hours and uncapped the two vents I covered before and propped the insoles up against the open vents and rotated the insoles every once in a while. I may have added another hour just because I was fascinated with it, thinking about those poor saps putting on wet shoes in the morning and getting blisters on their feet. At any rate, next day = dry shoes. And I put them on and went right back into the lake for the Sunday race.Some other thoughts: My shoes are quality trail running shoes. They are designed to shed water and dry quickly, that may be aiding the drying process. I had all night to dry my shoes so I could have dialed up 4 hours every 4 hours until the next day if I had to. That said, I've sat them out in the sun before and they didn't dry anywhere near as quickly as with this dryer. Apparently that isn't recommended anyway. Neither is a clothes dryer. And noise? I spent three years walking past engine rooms, it's a matter of perspective. It didn't bother me at all. I can't really speak for the scent, my shoes smell (see above as to why). I believe they have some kind of scent attachment though in case you want to be a diva and have pretty smelling shoes. If you do OCR or trail running you need this and it needs you. And when you go beast mode on your next race, remember you heard it here first... Matter of fact, I'm putting a Spartan Race sticker on it..

The unit works well for drying out shoes.I was hesitant to buy at first because it seemed expensive. I was surprised that the timer system seems to work well. I have not soaked any shoes and needed them to dry yet but I suffer from sweaty feet and the unit dries them shoes over night no issues.Size wise it is compact but this is also in my opinion a downfall of the unit. I wish the one set of dryer tubes was just slightly taller than the other. I have size 11.5 and they touch while I have 2 pairs of shoes on the dryer. I am not happy as I at times have to off set the shoes to allow them both to fit on the dryer. If I had bigger feet this could be a deal breaker.
