There is an Instagram account that reviews Irish hand dyers from bathrooms all around the country. @irish_hand_dyer_reviews has already reviewed 21 hand dyers from Dublin, Waterford, Meath, Louth and the surrounding areas.

Well known establishments such as the 3Arena, The Olympia Theatre and Cineworld have had a visit from the hand drier reviewers. The hand driers are rated on air pressure, air temperature and aesthetics before it receives its overall score.

A brief description of the experience is also given to help the reader understand what the the experience is like.

One post says:  “A sense of satisfaction came across me as I felt the full force of the dryer's 90 miles per second airspeed coupled with an air temperature of approximately 35-65°c,”

Arthur’s Blues and Jazz Club is currently top of the leader board with an overall score of 8.8 out of 10.

There is also 'a Hand Dyers in Hollywood' quiz in their highlights

Location: 3 Arena, Dublin Air Pressure: 5.8/10 Air Temperature: 6/10 Aesthetics: 5.9987/10 Overall: 6.8/10 Bladder filled, mind racing, can't stand still. All of these usually lead my body to one conclusion. Go to the bathroom and urinate. Once I passed water and washed both hands I turned and saw one of the most beautiful sights I had ever seen. Four identical hand dryers lined up proudly and ready to serve as if part of an illegal military coup. I could nearly envision each one saluting the passers by as if to say "good job". The sight in front of me was impressive however I must admit I couldn't help slightly #PrayingForADyson just to see what that same line up would look like with some air blades! Not letting the spectacle distract me I composed myself and approached the dryer. This was review time. On first approach I wasn't extremely impressed with the look of the machine. It's overall design was basic and lacked any unique stylistic choices that would make it stand out for me. What garnered this dryer some points in aesthetics however was the detailed panel. "Cuts drying time, eliminates paper towel waste" are not only what's emblazoned on the panel but also two of the main principles I live my life on. The logo was also most impressive. Not afraid to be sued by clothing company @nike the World Dryer boldly name this model the 'Air Max' and by doing so are sticking it to the man in my opinion. Tenderly raising my hands beneath the Air Max it began to roar. A disappointingly weak jet of air left the nozzle of the machine. There was some force behind the air but it was not as strong as expected and comparable to an asthmatic repeatedly blowing into a breathalyser, trying their best but still not good enough. The air temperature also left me wanting more. What began as a cold blast of air gradually began to warm up but at this point I just wanted the experience to end. What started as one of the best moments of my life when witnessing the line up ended in a disappointing dry. @threeireland @3arenadublin @mcdproductions @dyson #dublin #dublinpubs #dublincity #ireland #hygeine #handdryer #dyson #worlddryer #airmax #PrayingForADyson
