Worth noticing
It describes the drying mechanism as a thin sheet of unheated air moving at about 400 mph, or about 430 mph in later models.

Field notes

The overview says the dryer pushes water off hands rather than evaporating it with heat, and gives an approximate air speed of 400 mph, rising to about 430 mph in later models. Its navigation separates model history from comparisons with paper towels and from hygiene and noise topics. The page labels its efficiency and cost figures as the maker’s claims and states that the guide is not affiliated with Dyson.
