Check this out, I have never seen one of these before!

What could you dry in something this small? Socks?

You could prob fit 2 socks in there and i couldnt see anyone using the full 60 minutes on the timer...

i have see some useless things for sale and even tho its looks cute i cant see how anyone could think anything so small could be in anyway practical...

wouls love to hear what the other members say about this dinky machine and what could be dried in it apart from dolls clothes thats all.. lol

It MIGHT come in handy if you had one garment to dry.

" I Don't Like Panties Hanging In the Shower"

Quote from the film " Good-bye Girl"

Small dryer designed and sold by Sunbeam for days when good girls washed their danties nightly by hand. Instead of hanging such laundry to dry all over the bathroom or elsewhere, one bunged one's nylons, and other intimate apparel in this small dryer. Tidie Dryer by Ronco and other similar units abounded as well, much to the delight of husbands, brothers and others who did not fancy having to battle a gauntlet of danties hanging from the shower when having to use the loo.

I was going to give the same answer. I remember these beind advertised for women to dry their nylons and other personal items.

This reminds me of the "Tidy Dryer". Does anyone else remember that? They were one of those K-Tel or Ronco type things that came out at Christmas. I remember the commercials for them would be on all the time leading up to the holidays. If I remember correctly, it was smaller than this Sunbeam.

Ah, this thread takes me back to my dating days. I remember using the bathroom at several dates homes and having to run the gaultlet of "dainties" myself!
Karen is limited to hanging her "dainties" in the bathroom next to the laundry room these days. It has a window that she can open and they dry quite quickly. In the meantime, I don't go in there.

Mike,

Does it exhaust the air through the front door or rear?
Lint Filter? Drum Light? (just kidding!)

Glad you got it!

it exhausts air through the front door and the lint comes thru there also. wish i had an owners manual to go with it. I do though have the original box.
