"Airblade hand dryer uses sheets of cool cleaned air..."

Not exactly what I'd want in the middle of winter.

However, if it cuts the time spent in those odiferous environs even for a few seconds, it's ingenious.

There have been numerous studies showing that hand air dryers are very un hygienic and notorious for effectively spreading bacteria and virus's. I prefer paper towels and using it to open the door out behind the guy who did not wash his hands after taking a crap.

Lol you guys are a bunch of germaphobes.

Next Freethinking will stop by crying about how he contracted HIV from a public restroom (in a gay bar).

The AirBlade hand dryer is here some time already and from its construction follows, it's very hygienic - all water droplets are trapped inside it. IMO it belongs into best Dyson's inventions.

If Dyson's track record with vacuum cleaners is any indication; there are two drawbacks to his products. First, they are way more expensive than the competitors; second, as soon as he comes out with a new design he obsoletes the previous designs. I bought a Phantom Fury back a few years. When it broke down I found there was no way to get it fixed. The company does not make replacement parts, and nobody will service it. So, after a couple years, my not-cheap vacuum was a pile of junk. I would have done better buying a cheaper vacuum that could be serviced. I will never buy another Dyson product. For those prices, I can do better buying a professional product with replacement parts and continued service.
