Warm air or gentle heat, and whether it runs on a timer · review
The dearest dryer here, the only one with a sensor that starts it — and the only one whose claims are about sales figures.
The bottom line The one dryer here that starts and stops by itself, sold mostly on how many people bought it.
Three published figures — 5 000, 5 and 60 — and an automatic start. On this shelf that is the most complete description of how a dryer behaves.
Reported as the maker’s statements. None of them is a specification, and this page does not treat them as one.
Patentierte Active-Oxygen-Technologie. No number. A patent claim without a number cannot be looked up, which is the point of a patent number.
The power draw, the stated temperature and the weight — on the dearest unit on the shelf.
109.00 in Britain. 129.00 in Germany, France, Italy and Spain. The American store does not carry it.
One check, one figure — 129 € — at the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon shops.
Outside the euro, the British Amazon shop sells it in its own currency, and the range above is kept clear of that.
An empty answer from the American Amazon shop: the buy button there opens a search instead of a blank page.

The maker’s name for their treatment, stated patented and stated to fight the fungi and bacteria behind smelly shoes and foot and nail infections. No patent number is given and no test is quoted. This site reports the claim; it does not make a health statement on the strength of it.
It detects the shoes on the holders and starts the programme automatically, then drops to a low-power standby when it finishes. It is the only automatic start on this shelf, and it is the answer to every dryer here that has no timer.
They are claims about popularity, not about performance: best-selling in Europe for seven years, 200 000 customers, 3 500 podologists, several top athletes, and a 30-day home trial. This page reports them as the maker’s and weighs the published mechanism instead.
A household that will use it every day, on every kind of shoe, and wants it to run itself
At 109 £, it sits +276 % against the 29 £ median of the 8 models in this category published here.
