There are three LED lights which indicate which heat setting you have it on, which range from 28C to 42C. It feels premium, made from crisp 200-thread count cotton that’s going to help you regulate your temperature. Set the dryer to a low heat setting for around 10-15 minutes before taking it out and evenly hanging on a drying rack to finish drying.
