A Great Dryer, But Not Without Its Flaws

summarizeEditor's Summary

I recently got my hands on the GIMI Modular 4 clothes dryer, and it's been a wild ride. This Italian brand has impressed me with its compact design and ability to dry a large amount of laundry without taking up too much space. The compact design is perfect for small spaces, making it easy to store in a closet or under a bed. However, it's not without its flaws – the dryer can be a bit of a hassle to carry around, and the shipping process could be improved. But overall, it's a great option for those looking for a space-saving solution, and I've been happy with its performance so far. I've been using it for a week, and the build quality has surprised me – the buttons feel solid and the battery lasts longer than I expected. But I do wish the manufacturer had included more detailed instructions, as I had to figure out some of the settings on my own. Despite this, I'm really enjoying the GIMI Modular 4, and I think it's worth considering for anyone in the market for a new clothes dryer.

I recently got my hands on the GIMI Modular 4 clothes dryer, and let me tell you, it's been a wild ride. I've seen plenty of cheaper alternatives, but I opted for this Italian brand, and I'm glad I did.
The Modular 4 clothes dryer is perfect for anyone who wants to dry a large amount of laundry without cluttering up their space. It comes with four shelves, two hanger hooks, and is designed for use indoors or outdoors in a shower.
One of the things that drew me to this dryer was its compact design. When folded up, it's easy to store in a closet or under a bed, and it's also lightweight enough to be carried up and down stairs – although, I wish I'd opted for delivery to my doorstep instead of a pickup point, as it's a bit of a hassle to carry.
Material: Powder-coated steel, plastic. Total length of drying bars: 40 m. Dimensions when unfolded (W x D x H): 71 cm x 71 cm x 168 cm. Dimensions when folded (W x H): 168 cm x 71 cm. Manufacturer: Italy. Thickness of the slats: 3 mm. So, here's the dryer itself. When I first got it, it arrived in a compact form, but let me tell you, it's not exactly lightweight. The width is 71 cm, but it's still a bit unwieldy, and please, don't try to carry it on a windy day – you'll feel like a human hamster wheel!
The dryer in its folded state. The dryer comes with wheels, and there are two sets included in the package. Even a kid could assemble them – you just need to insert them into the designated slots. The wheels make it easy to move the dryer around, which is especially useful in small spaces. I'd consider placing it on my balcony during the summer.
The wheels The dryer is quite tall, at 168 cm. For me, at 166 cm, it's a comfortable height. However, if you have shelves or hooks at this height, you might want to consider the Modular 3 instead. It's similar, but with three tiers instead of four. Here's what it looks like when unfolded. One of the support bars did bend when I was carrying the dryer around the house – it's pretty rigid, but I just can't seem to straighten it out.
This is what the dryer looks like when it's fully unfolded So, what's the best part about this dryer? It's the design. If you take a look at the base, it's got a sort of fan-like shape to it. That's what allows it to be so compact. If you've got a laundry area that's 30x70, this is a great option.
The stand It's compact because you can fold up one of the stands. In that case, some of the shelves will be hanging free, since there's nothing for them to lean against. And the dryer is still stable on three legs, or four, or even when it's bent.
It's really compact Another great feature of this dryer are these hooks, which you can use to hang clothes on the hangers. It looks pretty sturdy.
For hangers Let's see the dryer in action. You can spread out the clothes on the shelves, or hang them up. If you spread them out, you might not even need to iron them. You can fold up the sheets and put them on the shelves, or hang them on the stand. The dryer won't get overloaded and tip over.

One of the things that I wish was different about this dryer is the weight. It's not exactly lightweight, and it can be a bit of a hassle to carry up and down stairs. However, the wheels make it easy to move around, which is especially useful in small spaces.
I've been using this dryer for a few weeks now, and I have to say, it's been a game-changer. I've been able to dry a large amount of laundry without cluttering up my space, and it's been really easy to use. The design is great, and the compact size is perfect for small laundry areas.
I've had some issues with the dryer's stability, but overall, I'm really happy with it. It's been a great addition to my laundry routine, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a compact and easy-to-use dryer.
