Dyson Airblade

Red Alert

Has anyone else used this contraption? I saw it when i was in the dundrum centre over the weekend, apparently it dries your hands in 10 seconds and uses much less power than an ordinary hand drier. Unfortunately i'd already dried my hands with the old fashioned one before I saw the Dyson.

I saw Dyson demonstrating it on the Late Late show a while back. It looks pretty cool and how it works is fairly interesting. And they can't be as bad as the ones knocking about now that just blow the water onto your trousers (at least that's how I explain the wet patch )

There one in the toilets off the main hall of the RDS
During the full week that i was there i got to use it about 5 times. Must say that i was impressed, whilst i didnt time myself, it took more that the 10 secs. I had to place my hand in twice, mabye this was because i withdrew them too quickly.

Overall, i was well impressed, hope thay last longer that the vacuum cleaners made under the same name.

Think I know the one you mean, the one where you put your hands down into it? Probably not describing that too well. Worked great, the normal ones take ages to get you completely dry. Then one day it was out of order.

Edit: Just googled it, it's the one I thought, link.

I saw something like this in the Gents Toilets at Stansted Airport last June, it gave a massive fairly fast blow of air which dried my hands in seconds much more efficient. It was like an ordinary hand drier except the air was blown so much faster through a narrower opening. Claimed to be very energy efficient, green etc. Anybody else see these in Stansted ??

Those arms holes look way too small if you had a coat or anything on.
