Poll: Use of Suit Dryers

Due to some recent questions at our YMCA I wonder what people think: The Suit Dryer (Water Extractor) is only for swim suits. Anything that is damp or sweaty can be put in the Suit Dryer (i.e. sweaty tee shirt, sweaty socks, etc.)

  • I have never seen a suit dryer. Do they have them in California? Why not just rinse and hang it up in your shower at home or the car during work. The 85 degree weather always drys the suits pretty quick! Brett - the dryer is a stainless steel basket that spins & removes excessive water with centrifugal force – I should have used the correct terminology “Swimsuit Water Extractor”. This is very convenient for those of us that go from the pool directly to work with the swim bag in the trunk & is especially helpful during the winter months. Many times at the end of the day when I get home & hang the suits up they are frozen solid (try putting on an ice cold speedo some time that was left in the trunk overnightL). They thaw & dry much faster each night with the excessive moisture removed via the suit dryer.
