[QUOTE="Simeon_Strangelight, post: 1187318, member: 6783"] I always hated those things anyway. Does not surprise me that it's another scam which only appears to be better, but ultimately isn't. No way in hell will all bacteria be killed in the heat - it's essentially a germ-growth-area - not only within the device, but also in the environment since it blows out literally crap across the room. The Mythbusters episde is also telling. They pushed for the change from paper/washable towels for two maybe three reasons: A) Ability to sell you an expensive device that needs to be maintained and replaced constantly B) Fake supposed myths of "saving the environment" - my favorite ones are those babies and voila - they are the most hygienic: [URL]http://www.dberkhoudtarchitect.com/2012/03/new-research-proves-cloth-roll-towel-systems-crt-more-hygienic-than-air-dryers/[/URL] [b][/b] [img]https://phelpsusa.com/media/2016/12/cloth-roll-towel-dispenser.png[/img] No idea whether those rolls are being re-used, but that should not be problematic.
