FAQs

How much electricity does this airer consume?

The unit is rated at 298W, making it significantly more energy-efficient than a standard tumble dryer.

Can I use this in the bathroom?

The unit has an IPX1 rating, which provides protection against vertical water drops, but it should not be placed in a position where it could be splashed directly or submerged.

Does it come with a cover?

Yes, an included cover is provided to help concentrate heat and accelerate the drying process.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The airer can support a total weight of 30kg when distributed evenly.

How do I store the airer when not in use?

Once cooled and unplugged, the unit can be folded down to a depth of 15.5cm, allowing it to fit into slim gaps like beside a cupboard or behind a door.

Is it safe for delicate fabrics?

Yes, the operating temperature of 45-55°C is gentle on most fabrics, and the mesh shelf is specifically included for drying delicate items flat.

Troubleshooting

The rails do not feel hot to the touch

Ensure the plug is fully inserted into a working power outlet and the unit is switched on. Note that the rails are designed to be warm rather than scalding to protect fabrics.

The airer is unstable

Check that all four anti-slip feet are making contact with a flat floor and ensure laundry weight is distributed evenly across all tiers.

Clothes are taking a long time to dry

Ensure the included cover is fitted correctly to trap heat. Also, ensure the clothes are not overlapping too much, which can restrict airflow.

Pros and Cons

  • Energy-efficient alternative to tumble drying
  • Large capacity holds up to 30kg of clothes
  • Space-saving design folds to just 15.5cm deep

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the unit involves unfolding the tiers and locking them into the desired configuration. Ensure the airer is placed on a flat, level surface to utilize the anti-slip feet. The unit features a 1.8m power cable, allowing for flexible placement near a wall outlet. To maintain the device, unplug it after each use and ensure it has cooled completely before folding it for storage. Wipe down the aluminum rails with a damp cloth if they become dusty, but never submerge the unit in water. The IPX1 rating protects against minor drips, but it should be kept away from excessive moisture or standing water.
