We met Will Brendza from GearJunkie at the Outdoor Retailer 2023 Winter Show in Las Vegas, and were proud to be featured as one of GearJunkie´s 10 standout products from the event. We are even PROUDER to receive a comprehensive product review on our Hedgehog Buddy Black Ionic i3 boot and glove dryer.

For the full article, please read here. Here are some highlights:

• "The Hedgehog Buddy i3 generates enough hot air in an hour to heat a small home, fights odors and kills bacteria, and dries boots, gloves, socks, hats, and more extremely fast."
• "I expected to use it infrequently. But almost immediately, I found myself using it to heat up and dry, not only my ski boots before and after the slopes, but also my shoes before walking the dog, my hat before going to the grocery store, and my glove liners and even base layers after sweating through them on backcountry tours. The Buddy Black i3 took me by surprise. It’s more functional than I imagined a boot dryer could be. I’ve been genuinely impressed by this piece of gear."
• "In short: The Hedgehog Buddy Black Ionic i3 boot and glove dryer blows its competitors away. It can be hung or wall-mounted and saves space over larger free-standing boot dryers. It has three heat settings, five fan speed settings, an odor-fighting ionic mode, and a timer that runs from 15 minutes up to 10 hours — and it works fast. This is by far the techiest and most efficient boot dryer I’ve ever used."
• "So far this season, I’ve used the Hedgehog almost every day I’ve gone skiing — and many in between. This isn’t just a tool for skiing, like my previous boot dryer had been. This is a tool for winter living."
