SteryDry Shoe and Boot Steriliser and Dryer

Ever find after washing a pair of trainers that they take ages to dry?  Well SteryDry UK have come up with the answer in the form of SteryDry a unique shoe sterilising and drying product.  For me this is an answer that I have been looking for, with a sport loving daughter who’s trainers are constantly in the wash.  Throughout the Summer months it’s not so bad but in this colder weather I’m having damp shoes hanging around for 4 or 5 days before they are fit to wear again.

wp_20161028_14_42_44_proThe SteryDry consists of one unit which requires minor assembly on arrival.  It plugs in and is ready to go straight away with it’s preset programme which can be overidden for extra wet shoes.  What I really like is that you just put the shoes on and it starts, no messing around with controls and settings, just hang the shoes over the holders and off it goes with it’s infrared sensors.  This makes it ideal for my daughter to put her shoes on herself and get them drying as soon as possible.  It has a small screen which counts down the minutes left which is great to know when they’ll be dry and then it automatically stops.

What is brilliant about this gadget is it not only dries your shoes but sterilising them leaving them fresh and odour free.  It works by cleverly converting oxygen into ozone which circulates throughout the shoes killing all the fungi and bacteria along the way. How cool is that?

My daughter plays rugby twice a week so comes home with wet muddy boots, so we give them a quick wash and pop them on the SteryDry and within 30 minutes we have fresh, dry boots.  I tend to wash her trainers every few weeks as she soon builds up the mud after playing in the park and running around at weekends.  This gadget has been a godsend and makes life so much easier.  Shoes are dried and back on the shoe rack that evening, essential when things like rugby boots are needed again within the next day or two.  With two children and a husband who also wears rugby boots weekly whilst training, and cycles to work daily, so can often comes home with wet cycling shoes when it’s raining, the SteryDry will prove particularly valuable to our family home.

It retails at £69.99 which isn’t cheap but it’s a unique product that makes our life easier.  With it getting regular use in our household which I imagine will be more over the next few years, then this is worthwhile.  I’m aiming for a tidier more organised household and this helps as I’m fed up of damp shoes lying on the drying rack in the kitchen all the time.  If you have a household that regularly finds itself with wet shoes then it is worth checking out SteryDry, it’s been brilliant for us and I can’t fault it.  The only thing I would say is it’s not the most compact of items but I’ve found a home for it under the stairs so it’s easy to pull in and out the several times a week that we use it, a small price to pay for the benefits we’ve gained from it.

I must also mention SteryDry’s sister company Hospitality Quality who have a fun range of stocking filler items such as keyrings, magnets and handbag mirrors.  Available from their website or Amazon, they come with fun slogans with something to suit everyone.

I particularly like these handbag mirrors presented in an organza bag.  I have just the friend who would love this Marilyn Monroe mirror and I think the prosecco magnet has my name all over it!stery-dry-mirrorA fun selection of stocking fillers for friends and family!

Character products from Brantano – Review

Both my children love having popular characters on their clothes, shoes and other items and Brantano have a great selection available.  With characters such as Peppa Pig, Star Wars, Frozen, Minions, Barbie, Disney Princesses and many more there really is something for everyone and they are sure to have your children’s favourite.

brantanoWith Mister B loving Spiderman right now, these Spiderman Light up trainers were sure to be a hit.  He absolutely loves them and doesn’t want to take them off.  At £24 they feel well made for character shoes, and have lots of thought about detail and easy to fasten velcro straps.

brantano 2The exciting bit for Mister B is jumping around and watching his shoes light up at the heel with a bright red flash!  They fit well and are comfortable, meaning he’s happy to wear them and they are great for walking about in for everyday wear, after school and at weekends.

brantano 3As you can see he loves his shoes and I always think it’s a good thing if a child likes their shoes as it’s so much easier to get out of the house rather than battling with them to put things on they don’t like.

Miss M is back to packed lunches at school this year so needed a new lunch box and was thrilled to pick out this Frozen one.  It’s a lunch bag style with a soft, padded carry handle and zips around to close.  It has some pretty detail on the side and on the back it has a place to write your child’s name.

brantano 4It’s a really good size so easily fits food for lunch, snack and a drink bottle inside.  It has a grey wipe clean interior that is easy to clean with a quick wipe round and it’s ready to use again the next day.  Miss M loves her Frozen themed lunchbox and it has daily use at school each week.

Why not take a look at the other character products at Brantano?
