Best boot dryer?

I just got the 40 dollar one at the hardware store, I use it every night to dry my work boots and I use it for my ski boot liners in the winter. It works great one of the best things I've ever bought, nothing fancy but gets the job done!

it just says "jobsite boot dryer" on it so I don't really know

just go to the hardware store dude they will probably have one lol
 
I always pull my liners out of the shell and have them somewhat near a radiator. They're never wet in the morning. Boot dryers are a scam.

You do construction in ski boots? Do you have heat in your house? I'm saying boot dryers are a scam for ski boots that have removable liners. I've never had issues with wet ski boots after having the liners out overnight in a heated environment. If I need to dry it fast tossing the liner on the ground with a t shirt stuffed inside will outpace any competition.

drying a work boot isn't that different than a ski boot. And yeah ofc I have heat I just don't want my nasty liners chilling in the middle of the room. Boot dryers work extremely well, that doesn't mean it's impossible to dry your boots without them, but calling them a "scam" is false.

The reason your liners are nasty is because you don't take them out of the shells. Boot dryers don't do a good job getting the moisture between the liner and the shell. I never have a problem leaving them in the corner of the room. I put the liners back in once they dry out.

I have one of these. Super nice you can dry gloves and boots at the same time. Has a timer and everything too. Choice of heat and no heat. Also look for a sale on them. Bought mine on Black Friday last year for $40.
 
I got one from canadian tire last year and works like a charm i think the brand is maximum or something like that, it is the same a the DryGuy one just branded different

I got both these and they work great. Only use the travel one if traveling cuz it uses heat.

don’t you dare disrespect the boot dryer?
 
I was given the Peet boot dryer for Christmas a few seasons ago, probably the most useful present I've received in Years! I also have the dry guy travel one that you can plug in in the car.
