H/PolyDryer™ Box/

Very well-built and thoughtfully designed. The box seals tightly, feels sturdy, and keeps filament reliably dry. The spool runs smoothly, and the viewing window is a nice touch to quickly check how much is left. I especially like that you can feed the filament directly from the box — no rewinding or mess. It also looks great and fits nicely into a printer setup. One star off because the price is a bit on the high side. Otherwise, it’s an easy recommendation for anyone who values clean, dry filament storage.

I have been drying filament in a modded food dehydrator for a long while now and it has been fine for PLA and PETG, but lately I've been printing more TPU and switching between spools more, so it's gotten to be more inconvenient. I saw the PolyDryer system on YouTube and liked the two-part approach: a "Dryer Dock" for heating and a "Storage Box" for both drying and long-term storage, so I gave it a shot. After using it for a few weeks, I can say it's a solid solution that addresses many of the pain points I had. What it does well: - The base heater unit (Dryer Dock) does the job well without being flashy. The simplified 3 heat settings and an adjustable timer make it rather straightforward to use. The chart with common filament settings being a sticker right on the dock is a nice touch that saves time looking up settings. Really couldn't be much easier than this. - The storage box box seals well and accommodates all my usual spools. It includes rollers for the filament to spin on, plus an attachment for center-hole support. I don't typically need to use the center hole, but it seems like a thoughtful touch. The boxes do stack on top of one another well, but they don't latch together. They don't seem to fall off of one another sitting on the rolling table I have two X1Cs printing on, for what it's worth. - You can feed filament into a 3D printer while you are drying with this system, or while the filament is stored/sealed to keep it dry. This is especially useful for very hygroscopic materials, but it's also convenient for even moderately hygroscopic filament since you don't have to dry it before each print. - During drying the included hygrometer lets you know how wet the air is inside the box since it and the color-changing desiccant are visible through the front of the box. And since the same box is used for long term storage, both act as a nice at-a-glance check to ensure the filament is still dry without even removing it from the shelf. - Two exit holes with included PTFE tubes make it easy to guide filament from the box to your printer. The air in the box stays remarkably dry after the initial drying process. What could be improved: - There's no way to switch the temperature or mode mid-cycle without either letting the timer run down or turning it off and on again. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's an odd omission. - The lid latches are extremely firm. While this ensures a good seal, it might be challenging for some users (like children or those with arthritis) to open and close. **Addressing some misconceptions:** Some reviews I've seen seem to misunderstand what they're buying or have unrealistic expectations. Let me clear a few things up: - There are two options in the listing. You can get either the storage box alone, or a combo with the dryer dock and a storage box. You only need a single dryer dock (though having more lets you dry more spools simultaneously), but you'll want a storage box for each spool you want to keep dry at a given time. This modular approach makes more sense than a single bundled offering because you typically need more than one storage box. - Noise Levels: In my experience, the beep isn't excessively loud, and the fan noise is reasonable for this type of device. I've used other food dehydrators and filament dryers that are much louder than the claimed 41dB. - The LCD display is functional and easy to read from most angles. While it's not a fancy full-color display, it does the job without introducing unnecessary complexity that could lead to failures down the line, and I appreciate that it keeps the cost of the unit down. - Some reviewers have compared this to units with more "granular" temperature controls. In practice, the three-setting approach, combined with the provided chart, works great. The additional settings of other units are really not any different than the dial on a cheap food dehydrator which often leads to false precision rather than better results. This all said, who is this good for? I think if you're willing to plunk down a bit more than you'd spend on a basic food dehydrator this is the way to go. Dedicated filament driers are rarely providing much more than added convenience, but the PolyDryer system is a well-thought-out solution that addresses the real world inconveniences of 3D printing with hygroscopic materials without getting caught up in unnecessary bells and whistles. It's a tool that does its job well without being flashy, which is exactly what I needed, and you might as well.

Outstanding product. Packaged very well and secure for shipping. Printing mostly PETG, they keep my filament in a perfectly workable state after dehydrating. The digital hygrometer is very responsive and accurate enough for the use case give or take 1-5%. They are nice and compact fitting nicely on shelving for storage. I am a little worried about the clamping sides as they are slightly tough to snap on and engage. Putting the lid on slightly wrong may result in breaking those clamps. I would keep an eye on this. The filament holes on the top and front are great for their use case. I look forward to purchasing more of these as my color library continues to grow. Highly recommended 5 Stars.

Ces boîtes sont très fonctionnelles car il est possible de sécher le filament sans le sortir de sa boîte. De plus il est possible de sécher 2 boîtes à la fois grâce une impression 3d. Pour terminer il est possible de déplacer très facilement l’élément de séchage d’une boîte à l’autre en fonction des besoins. Seul problème sur les boîtes achetées chez Amazon, c’est qu’elles étaient un peu gonflées ce qui rend les cylindres plastique de support inutilisables, mais il suffit d’en imprimer un plus long. Je conseille donc l’achat de ces boîtes.
