When I was younger I remember all the dryers being Dyson airblade ab03 and a few years later they were all replaced with mitsubishi jet towel slims and that was all the toilets here that now have the aike dryers. Except from the new toilets that have aikes It's nice to see some mitsubishi jet towels still there today. The Dyson airblade ab14s were added a bit later but there wasn't many of them. When I was younger I remember the outside ladies toilets having anda series 2000s branded as sector (im female so I mostly use the ladies). The second hand dryer you filmed is a vortice which is a very low quality hand dryer. The first time I remember going to Colchester zoo was around 2009 and again in 2011 when I remember the anda and the Dyson ab03s. I might of been to Colchester zoo before 2009 but I don't remember the dryers they had before then as I was quite young. (I'm 22 now if you're wondering) that 90s phs dryer has been there for years It has been there before I was born but I don't remember seeing it the past times I've been here. The last I went here was in 2021 I also went here in 2017.

That's a shame if some AIKEs replaced Mitsubishis, but it isn't surprising given the condition that the two remaining Dysons are in. They really need to start maintaining their dryers.

I’ve seen that old PHS Ecodry at a Pub in Drayton Basset many years ago I think and the other toilets had push Button Micromarks I believe. That 2nd crap unbranded dryer at 2:59 is a Vortice.

[@ukhanddryers]

I did mention in live chat that it's a Vortice.

Interesting dryers

[@handdryersbyn1769]

I'm rather excited, as this is a zoo I've never heard any info about hand dryer-wise.

[@ukhanddryers]

There are a few things that you should find interesting, but also quite a few that you probably won't. It's far better than my first one though, I'll give you that.

@@ukhanddryers I have a Magna hand dryer adventure at the end of the year. Every dryer remains as I remember it, some KINGWEs that were annoyingly installed in 2018, two sets with rare but crap dryers, one of those having no disabled. The one with a disabled has a random Anda. Outside has kept some rare but not the best dryers, that were used in the building before the rare but crap dryers. Then I have the Vitesses next year, really to get them out of the way, but the explanations make up an adventure.

[@Handdryerswithsplashy]

The old phs ecodry is rare as I stated on the live, although I do have the early 2000s version which will be quite rare as well

[@ukhanddryers]

It's the first one I've found.

[@handdryerswithaden5764]

Cool selection of hand dryers (except the Sm48) I know Blackpool Zoo has Robus HELMS In the Disabled. The gents has 3 of these and a Warner Howard Sm48. Not sure where this was by

[@ukhanddryers]

SM48 might have replaced another HELM.

2:52 that is a vortice hand dryer

[@ukhanddryers]

I know, however I didn't when making the video.

[@DryersaroundtheUK]

I replied to you about the dryers that I saw at Drayton Mannor on your post of this dryer adventure. Sometimes people don’t get reply’s to come through on KZbin and that’s fine.

[@ukhanddryers]

Provided that I don't forget, I'll have a look in a bit.

[@RandomStuffByNoah]

Im waiting for it lol

[@ukhanddryers]

You'll be waiting a couple of days then.

[@RandomStuffByNoah]

@@ukhanddryers Ik lol

[@NCHLTII]

Wow a 90s ecodry, one of the many "rare but crap" dryers.

[@ukhanddryers]

A very worn one for that matter.

[@DryersaroundtheUK]

@@ukhanddryersThere also used to be one at my old Nursery in but it never worked at all , the other toilet had a PHS Ultradry LE that did work though.
