Gravitis 4.2HP Motorbike Dryer - powerful, portable bike dryer for dusting, drying and valeting motorcycles and other vehicles

Brilliant piece of kit, well made and produces a serious amount of hot air - dries a Ford Ranger in 5 minutes, only downside is that it generates so much air it occasionally blows the nozzles off the end of the pipe

Not often I get blown away (pun intended) by a new machine but this thing was a very pleasant surprise! Have to wash bikes frequently to do with work, hate putting them away wet in winter time, air line does ok at getting rid of some water but not great. This thing is superb though, way more powerful than I expected, you really have to watch where you’re pointing the nozzle or it will have half your workshop airborne!! Does the job brilliantly though; very effective.I’ve read the other comments about it being too high amps/watts for uk plugs but the plug doesn’t get hot in use and it’s not the sort of machine you leave on when you’re not there so I don’t have a problem. Also have an up to date circuit breaker board and it would trip at the slightest problem and it doesn’t do that so I’m perfectly happy using it. Also brought it into the house and dried the dogs and it’s effective at that too! Although the less powerful model would be more than adequate for them. If you are serious about looking after your bike I really think this is a must have tool. It’s especially useful if you like to apply fs365 or ACF50 to your bikes after washing, you have a perfectly dry bike to work with and in normal UK weather circumstances that’s not easy to do naturally. Would highly recommend getting one!

Feels well built. Didn't expect it to be this powerful. Excellent for car detailers and I have actually dried a whole medium sized vehicle with this, however, the ceramic coating did assist in the drying process. Great tool which I use on every detailing job.Devil in the Detailing.

This is a really handy device. I bought it to dry my bike properly and it does this perfectly. It blasts water from all the tiny crevices and bolt holes that you just couldn't get to with a drying towel. I was really surprised just how much water gets inside the bike.Since buying it, I keep finding more uses for it. It's great for blowing the dust out my garage and today I have used it to clean out a Dyson vacuum cleaner :-)I haven't found it excessively noisy like in some other reviews, and it looks really sturdy, so hopefully it will last.One tip though, make sure you have got tight hold of the end of the hose before you turn it on, otherwise it will attack you like a python on speed :-)

Just recieved the item. Absolutely love it. Bought as a substitute for the £400 master blaster alternative. expecting there to be a small compromise in performance. NOT THE CASE. This thing has some serious power. I cannot over sell the power of this little beast. As much as you will ever need. Low power has a good kick and max power is more that you need. Very impressed. Highly recommended. You have to see it to believe it. Construction seems fairly good. Plastic end caps arnt great but not weak. And power lead coming out the front is an oversite as you may run over it when pulling by the hose. But that's a small quibble that could be solved with some tape to hold it out the way. All in all a great bit of kit. Save the money of exspencive detailing dryers and have all the function. Perfect

Good amount of power for blasting water out of all those books and crannies. The air is warm - not hot and really helps with drying things out nicely.Enough hose length for working around a motorcycle.Relatively compact and easy to hang on the wall.A little expensive - but way better value than the big name competition.

Read this before deciding to purchase !Bought this as (along with at least one other customer) believing it was UK made, assome of the Gravitis ads have a Union flag displayed. When my Dryer arrived saw‘Made in China’ on the box. I’ve seen lots of tv consumer programmes where someimported electrical items are dangerously constructed, hence my purchase choice.Plugged the dryer into a wall socket in my kitchen, turned it on ... nothing. Warningbells began to ring in my ageing brain ! Discovered that the switch shown in theuser guide as the motor on/off switch was in fact the heater switch (they are onlymarked on and off on the unit). I started the dryer and it certainly had a powerfulwarm blast (incidentally, external construction of the unit seems very robust).Needing to replace my ageing extension reel to be able to use the dryer, I bought adecent one. Saw on the new reel a safety sticker advising that, even fully unwound, themaximum permitted wattage being 3120. I now know this is a standard maximumpower rating. As you can tell by my phraseology, I’m not good with electrics butdecided to dig deeper to ensure I would be using it safely (can’t be too careful withelectricity). I had made the assumption that as the drier was for domestic use noconflicts were likely to arise.I have now discovered several issues. Apart from the fact that I shouldn’t use the dryer onan extension lead, it’s maximum power consumption is 15.6 amps, yet the thing is fitted witha standard 3 pin plug complete with 13 amp fuse, so not compliant with UK safety rules. Noother users have highlighted any problems, but I for one am not going to flout rules/guidancedesigned to protect my well-being. I have also seen guidance on-line that the maximumrecommended wattage for an appliance being protected by a 13 amp fuse is 3 kW.In the user manual it also advises not to turn on the heat element in summer as the unit mayoverheat and become damaged. No ambient temperature is mentioned, just the season.In the UK our ambient temperatures fluctuate hugely. To my mind, this advice is ‘MickeyMouse’ in the extreme (Sorry Mr Disney) and illustrates my purchase choice has been anunsafe one (I’m being careful with my words here !). I shall be returning the dryer to Amazonfor a refund.
