About this product
This heated airer dries your washing using gentle warmth so you're not waiting days for damp clothes to dry on their own. It's freestanding and portable, so you can set it up wherever you've got space, and the foldout legs mean it's quick to assemble and doesn't take over the room. There's plenty of capacity for bulky items and everyday laundry, and the included cover helps trap the heat in so everything dries evenly. It heats up in around three minutes and reaches up to 71C, so your laundry gets properly dry without hogging radiators or cluttering up living spaces.
There's a 1.4m power cable so you've got a bit of flexibility with where you put it, and the whole thing weighs just 2.5kg so moving it around is no trouble. It's made from plastic with a fabric cover, and it folds away neatly when you're done. Ideal for flat drying delicate items or anything you'd rather not tumble, and it comes with a one-year guarantee. Just a sensible, everyday way to dry clothes without waiting for good weather or sacrificing space.

Customers Say
The DriBuddi is compact, energy-efficient, and effective for drying light clothes indoors, but some users find it flimsy, slow drying, and unsuitable for heavy or large items.

Rubbish
I thought this was going to be a really handy product, however it fell well below my expectation and it's a product I certainly wouldn't recommend. It didn't dry a few t shirts in an hour as it seems like a the heat was escaping through the vents at the top. So in my opinion, it's not cost effective. I would have returen it under the Argos 'returns guarantee' however, the product has now been used (even though I consider it to be rubbish!!). It also made the room very humid, my chairs wouldn't even slide on the wooden floor!!

Save your money and don’t buy this
I bought this to replace my old JML drier and wish I had never bothered. What a shoddy, jim crack item. It is very unstable and comes with rickety legs that keep falling off. Returned.

Great piece of kit
Great for drying indoors when it rains
Dry bud
Super clothes dryer
Excellent product this is a replacement as mine had been used for years, low cost efficient clothes dryer, some items don’t need ironing once dried, easy to assemble and very compact to store. Very energy efficient too, would highly recommend.

Hello there,
The supplier has advised for the JML DriBUDDI Compact Heated Airer: Dri Buddi can dry towels, but it will take a long time, you will need to fold and keep turning the towel around. If you have washed the cloths with softener, they do come out soft from the Dri Buddi.

This is designed to work best with plastic hangers, though metal hangers can also be used cautiously as long as clothes are not overloaded and metal parts are not touched during use. Metal hangers can also cause interference with the unit's wire.
