All About Xiaomi Shoe Dryers

Xiaomi has shown itself well in the smartphone market, and today the brand is associated with mobile gadgets. But the craftsmen from Xiaomi know how to make not only high-quality smartphones, but also many other useful devices at attractive prices.

The Xiaomi Shoe Dryer is the best shoe care device, and then you can familiarize yourself with the pros and cons of this device.

Among the main features of the device, a number of characteristics can be distinguished.

• The dryer is universal... It can be useful not only for drying shoes, but also for clothes. To dry, you can simply direct the air hoses onto a damp surface.
• Ability to dry 2 pairs of shoes at the same time. For this, recesses are provided on each tubular hose: one hose is divided into two holes, so you can dry 2 pairs in one session.
• Fast start-up of the dryer-sterilizer. To turn on the device will require only a record 15 seconds, after which the active mode of operation will begin.
• All the inscriptions on the Xiaomi shoe dryer are in Chinese. This may slightly worsen the use of the gadget, but you should not be upset - after 5 minutes of studying the buttons, you can intuitively figure out the purpose of each of them.
• Timer setting. There is no need to wait until the end of work and turn off the dryer yourself: you can set a timer for 30, 60, 120 and 180 minutes.
• Stand for standing position. The retractable mechanism works so that the device remains in a standing position and does not fall. However, the fragility of the stand makes you think about a more secure position during the drying process.
• Flexible telescopic sleeves offer individual and delicate drying: Long boots or ankle boots will be perfectly dry because the hose can be inserted deep into the shoe.
• Chinese socket. To use the device, you need a special socket adapter - the Chinese plug is not suitable for European connectors. Usually, the seller puts a cheap, but working plug adapter into the package, but he may not do this.

The company offers two main dryer models:

• advanced Deerma HX10, in which the tubes are retractable, and all functions are brought to the ideal;
• Xiaomi Youpin - a budget dryer with wire capsules, which are made in the form of two oval-shaped devices.

The model under consideration is an electric ultraviolet Xiaomi Deerma HX10 with an ionizer. This ozone treated design is the best-selling design and will be the subject of this discussion.

Xiaomi appliances are usually delivered in simple cardboard boxes in order to save money and reduce the price.: after all, the user is not going to brag about the shoe dryer box, but this affects the price in a good way.

The box from the electric dryer contains foam that protects the gadget from falling during transportation, instructions in Chinese and the dryer itself. The instructions are supplemented with illustrations, which will help you understand how to operate the device without reading Chinese characters.

The dryer is already assembled and ready to start working immediately, which positively characterizes the product: no manipulations are required to assemble the dryer.

The length of the wire for connecting to the network is 190 centimeters, and the total weight of the gadget is 1.3 kg. There are enough wires to plug it into an outlet and place the gadget on the floor. The corrugated tubes are enlarged by 4 times when stretched, which significantly expands the boundaries of the possible drying work.

There are 4 complete drying modes.

1. Basic - this is the most powerful mode in which drying is carried out as efficiently as possible: the temperature reaches more than 50 degrees Celsius. It is better to use the mode for long boots or thickened sneakers.
2. Leather shoes. It is a delicate mode, retains the maximum temperature, but significantly less ventilation pressure. Energy consumption is several times less than in standard mode.
3. Poor drying. Suitable for thin shoes: sneakers, sneakers and other similar models. The supply air temperature is reduced to 50 degrees.
4. Ozonation - no hot air, however, ventilation works as much as possible and dries shoes, removing unpleasant odors, while bacteria are completely destroyed. It should be noted that after the ozonation procedure, the room will smell of ozone, so it is advisable to use this option in a room with openable windows.

The operation is very simple. There are no complicated settings and options in the dryer: there are three buttons on the control panel. The left button is responsible for switching operating modes. Medium is the activation of the timer: each press of the button changes the amount of time set by the timer. The button on the right turns the device on and off.

As a division of the wire into 2 parts, there is a block that distributes power and shows an indication of the settings: which operating mode is currently on. It is noteworthy that the material of the dryer is fire-resistant - it is not afraid of fire at all.
