I searched and found a few boot dryer topics, but they were mostly focused on small or portable dryers.
I’m looking for a boot / glove dryer for our ski home - 8 pairs is probably about the right capacity.
I found a couple of wall mounted systems that look pretty slick in the $1600 to $2000 range. That’s a LOT more than I thought I might pay for something like this, but from what I can find, that’s what they cost.
I found a 6 pair free standing floor option for about $800 which looks fine, but it’s not really big enough for what I need, and seems like it wouldn’t be as tidy of a solution as the wall mounted ones.
Does anyone have something they would recommend? Reviews on all of these seem pretty good, but I would like to hear about other options and get some first hand accounts.
Also, is there a consensus on room temperature vs warmed air for drying? There seem to be some warnings out there against using any sort of heat, but plenty of people use heated boot bags without any adverse effects. I’m sure room temperature air can do the job, but it’s also pretty nice to put on warm boots in the morning.
