I have had the PEET Advantage 4-Shoe Electric Express Shoe and Boot Dryer for about a year now and while it has been effective in drying out my wet shoes and boots, there is one significant downside that I have encountered. When using the dryer for wet boots, the water that is removed from the boots tends to just go straight onto the floor, making a mess. To remedy this, I have had to put a towel or some other kind of protective covering down on the floor to catch the water. This can be a bit of a hassle and is something to consider if you plan on using the dryer for wet boots.Aside from this issue, I have found the PEET dryer to be a convenient and effective way to dry out my shoes and boots. It can accommodate up to four pairs at a time, which is great for families. The dryer is also able to dry footwear in as little as one hour, which is a huge time-saver compared to waiting for shoes and boots to dry out naturally. Additionally, the dryer uses a combination of forced air and gentle heat to effectively remove moisture and eliminate odors, leaving my shoes and boots feeling fresh and ready to wear again.Overall, I would still recommend the PEET Advantage 4-Shoe Electric Express Shoe and Boot Dryer, but just be aware that you may need to put something down on the floor to catch the water when using it for wet boots.

I use this 6x a week to dry out my boxing boots and gloves for almost 3 months and no issues. You can hear it when it's on but it's not loud enough to be annoying. I wish though it had a longer time setting. My version has 240 minutes. I wish it had 8 hrs of drying time since my gloves need just a little bit extra beyond the 6 hr max

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..

A great unit. It dries boots and shoes quickly. The option of turning on heat or just air is really appreiated. A cap to cover two of the tubes while drying just one pair of boots would be good. Otherwise very satisfied.

Have only used this for a few nights but it dries the kids rubber boots after just a couple hours! The fan is nice and quiet and the timer to heat or no heat is a great feature. Hopefully it works just as good for wet winter boots. Product was shipped quickly too!

I purchased this for my husband as he works in a welding shop all day and was having issues with his work boots becoming wet and cold and not having enough time to dry overnight before work in the morning. He has been using this every night after work since he got it and loves it! His boots are dry in a few hours and he has said it has made the world of difference for him.I like that it has four heating ports on it so that more than one pair of boots can be drying at once. I also like that it has a built-in timer so you don't have to worry about forgetting about it and leaving it running for longer than necessary.It's definitely not what I would consider "whisper quiet", but it's not loud, by any means. We just stick it downstairs and the sound doesn't bother us at all.Highly recommended :)

We are a family of 4 that enjoys spending time outside and do a lot of skidooing. We don't have registers in our heated garage and as a result this item was perfect...not only blows air but blows heated air on a timer to ensure dry boots and mitts. As a plus you wont burn out your boot dryer forgetting it on as it has a timer. Love this product, does the job well, great price, and fast shipping.

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 . 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.) Those are worth the extra money. Thank you, PEET, for an amazing product. And thanks to Amazon for fast shipping to Kodiak!!
