  • I have not received any payment to produce this video.
    The Dry Soon Drying Pod is available from Lakeland ( lakeland.co.uk ). The video unboxes my new Drying Pod and shows how to set it up and then reviews the first drying cycle. I also make some recommendations based on my experience.

    A really useful video. It showed me how to put the cover on.

    Think if I get one it's going in the bathroom with the extractor fan on, for the moisty winds to escape. Good review, thanks. Backflip 4 life.

      Thanks for the comment. I am glad the video was helpful 😀 As I mentioned in the video I had only given the clothes a short spin. I learnt from making the video and now I always do a long spin so the clothes are not as damp as the clothes in the video. I also use the pod near an open window.

    Definitely going to set mine up in the bathroom with the extractor fan on, only realistic option for ventilation in my flat being so close to the A63

      When I made the video I wanted to do a challenging test to check the drying capability of the Pod so I decided to do a short spin - the clothes were still quite damp when I put them in the pod. I now always do a long spin so the clothes are a lot drier before I put them in the Pod. I do not have as much of a condensation problem as I had when I made the video but the problem is still there ... the moisture from the clothes has got to go somewhere! So I think it is a sensible precaution to use your Pod in the bathroom with the extractor fan.

    Wonderful review. Lakeland said that cost is 31p per hour

      Thanks for the nice comment :)
      And thanks for the cost per hour. Electricity prices will go up in Apr-23 when if my quick calculations are correct the cost per hour will be 37p. However, the good news is that from July-23 analysts are forecasting that electricity prices will start to go down so the cost per hour will start to decrease :)

      Yes I did a typo. It is 34p now.
      Another 30 pounds a month for my house.
      My dryer takes hours
      Is yours still going
      I fear it could end up a mistake but it is difficult at the moment
      I have clothes everywhere

      @@annoftheoldbogroad1534 For the video I wanted to do a good test of the drying capability so the clothes had only had a short spin and they were still very damp. Looking back on it now I think it was a very stiff test for the Drying pod and this was why the clothes took so long to dry. I now make sure the clothes have had a good spin so they are not as damp as the clothes in the video. I also set a timer on my phone to remind me that every hour I move the clothes around and I remove any clothes that have dried because I have discovered that with less clothes it does dry faster!
      However, I do agree it does take a long time but I just leave it running until everything is dry. The thing I do like is that if I do a wash in the morning I know that by the end of the day everything will be dry and back in drawers ... so I don't have clothes left hanging around on radiators drying.
      My sister has a the bigger drying pod. It sounds like you have got a lot more clothes than me to dry ... it may be worth considering buying the bigger drying pod.

    4 hours???

      I now give the clothes a long spin so that they are drier than the clothes in the video when I put them in the Pod. I also move the hangers around every hour. I also don't put as many clothes into the Pod at the same time. Looking back at the video ... my test wash was a very stiff test for the Pod!
      If you want to get clothes dry quickly then a tumble drier is the best solution but the Pod will dry clothes slower and more gently with a lower temperature and no "tumbling" ... and it uses less electricity than a tumble drier. You can also use the Pod to dry clothes that you cannot put into a tumble drier.
      The Pod isn't a tumble drier so drying time is measured in hours ... but to be fair less than 4 hours these days with long-spin dried clothes, regular hanger movement and less clothes.
