Product review (4 stars): Great for the money, but not without challenges
I've been using this drier for a few months now and for the most part I like it, but wanted to share a few pros and cons in my opinion.

Pros:
It's relatively quiet
  When disassembled it takes up very little space
  It can hold a decent amount
  It will take items from spun dry to bone dry in just a couple hours when full. The fewer items, the faster it dries.

Cons:
Personally, I HATE the way the center column attaches. It's very finely and deeply threaded. I find it frustratingly difficult to set it perfectly straight and maintain that position as I turn and turn and turn AND TURN and turn and turn some more until it's fully set. I dread setting it up and I'm sure my neighbors are either entertained or horrified by my fluency in American vulgarity.  Detaching it isn't any easier and I just cut the hell out of my finger doing so because the threads are so close together it very easily gets stuck. In attempting to free it it came out suddenly and now my right pointer finger is bleeding all over the place. I wish to god it had a twist and lock attachment.

There are 2 levels of bars to hang items on. The upper bars are sturdy and have end caps that help keep items from sliding off. The lower bars for some odd reason are very thin and because of their design, the ends are turned downward which means items easily slide off if you're not careful. I wish they just had the same sturdy bar design on both levels.

Finally, and this might sound silly but trust me, it is a pain in the tush, the zipper on the plastic cover is really weird. The part with the tab that you pull up and down is really loose and wobbly, making it difficult to work with. It's like they used one meant for a larger, heavier zipper.

Again, in general this is a handy little appliance and it still beats slogging to the laundromat when it's too cool and damp here in San Francisco to just air dry my stuff after I pull it out of my little Panda washing machine which I LOOOOVE.
