Putting an electronic device with openings underneath wet clothes seems like a great idea
mrbgnle Yes. Anyone with a brain would have put the fans at the top of the unit instead of the bottom.
What I don’t understand about Dragons Den, is that they’re not allowed to take any notes with them and have to remember it all of the top of their head? A good business person knows their figures but also would have paperwork and be allowed to be prepared in a meeting ?
Presumably the logic us that its more fun watching people shit themselves than being able to refer to documents
A good business person should know all aspects of their product/idea/service inside out and backwards
actually, i have seen more than a few persons (ON the aussie shark tank & a copy of times on the UK version) that did bring papers with them. the aussies had a 13 yr old girl bring all her financials. I believe these folks just dont think to bring paperwork at all, not their patent's papers (which i have seen many times offered in the UK DD) or their cash flow statement. if they had gone to a bank they would have been forced to show some financials..... BUT I agree.. I dont understand sheep that cant fool their way into a meeting and then not know their basic numbers. / heck they could hide the numbers and statements on the bottom of their product and then fake that they had left the papers there themselves.. thanks for sharing, God Bless and enjoy the weekend.
@@johnbeechy They let kids bring in notes but the adults can't. There is one UK Dragons' Den where a nervous investor had his figures written on his hands which was quite funny. The truth is if you run a business you end up pitching to potential investors accidentally in the pub, at a football match, smoking etc and you know your figures.
@@peterd788 that is interesting. I have never heard that Rule in the CDN den, nor in the shark USA tank. the show's caption at the beginning only states the sharks use their own money. well cant blame the Game for the Rules. well then basics 101, remember 3 sets of numbers. Gross or as some blokes refer to it as 'turnover in sales', gross profit after COGS for products, and the net profit (although this value can be confused with 'before interest and depreciation'.. ONLY need 3 numbers/ best per yr/ BUT in the UK Den they do allow for all purchase agreements and partnership agreements and patents' paperwork. so i would still remind folks to bring these and vendor or customer lists with them. cant bring income statement, cash flow statement or balance sheet - but patent papers are ok.. I would pretend the products were in a store for sale and put a actual price on them, wholesale price if possible - this would not work for service related items (unless this too is not allowable).
I shall hold back on really the only major concern - lack of knowing the margins. U know tax rates have no effect on the Margins, so it makes no cents to slaves of the system of low wages to vote for corporate tax cuts. even Personal tax cuts have no effect on wages, ONLY on the net pay if any effect at all. OK.. well like i said, thanks for the update and clarity. Cant Blame the Game for the Rules. God Bless and may all Your entries into any Den or Tank land, 'Win, Place, or Show'.
Back in the 50s, my mother used a wooden rack just like this, hung clothes on it and placed it over the floor heater. when it was already on - Worked beautifully, clothes dried in an hour or so, energy consumption was way down.
I still use the wooden drying rack because some of my clothes do not go in a dryer (undies or delicate tops). In summer rack goes either near an open window or on the deck outside, and in winter also over the floor heater. It helps keep the house a little less dry.
Good lord the Oirish version is dull.
What were you expecting, the fake, artificial, contrived drama and overly hostile, rude and confrontational style of the UK show and investors?
Clearly you are only watching the show for the purpose of entertainment. You are not an investor or entrepreneur looking for inspiration and ideas, or even someone looking to learn something. When the show fails to give you the drama and excitement you are looking for, you conclude it is dull.
Your comment is misplaced and irrelevant.
This version is made for Irish views. Irish people have different attitudes, tastes and preferences. This show is not meant to satisfy your desire for American-style TV. You are on the wrong channel. Your comment is full.
Put a normal €10 household rotary fan in front of a bog standard clothes horse. Exactly the same job achieved and saving €70. That product needed to do something that was better for drying clothes than just fanning room air at clothes for €80. Good intentions but the product is nothing original or problem solving, its only a fan blowing air upwards. That's it for €80.
It is not just me as Jenny would too say she's out.
It doesn't even have temperature settings so you can use it on warm to double up as heating or cool to double up as aircon...not that it would convince me to buy it lol.
Can’t anybody afford an actual electric clothes dryer? I wouldn’t do this method of drying clothes- not ever.
@@MrJamberee Do you mean a tumble dryer? If so, the main reason not to have a tumble dryer is when you haven't the space for one. It's rarely about the cost.
@@MrJamberee Sometimes clothes dryers are hard on clothes when hanging them without tumbling around will make them last longer. Women's clothes can be made of lighter material that is not as sturdy as a man's. I get a lot of lint in my dryer from my other clothes and can't spare much fibers from some thinner things. They get threadbare too fast.
@@islandgal500 "Can’t anybody afford an actual electric clothes dryer?" They are very expensive to run.
Shaun's comment at the end was easy the best part
Two hours to dry a shirt? Sounds so inefficient.
Likely doesn't damage the clothes like dryers dude so it takes longer
Look at his tie. What the heck is that? Did it shrink?
Two hours at 40 watts is only 80 watthours, which is nothing.
Nice tie.
Irish dragons den is like watching paint dry..I keep giving it another try but it’s not improving and for that reason, I’m out
Oh god another one of these energy-saving devices. Is there nothing else to worry about in Ireland?
He's trying to sell a budget dryer to people who are so rich they can't remember ever even using a clothes dryer and so stupid they don't know the right questions to ask, questions like "what happens if you drip water into this box full of wires plugged into the wall?" or "how long do you expect the fans in it to last if its being used 8 hours a week?" or "how energy efficient is it if you leave it on for 2 or 3 times longer than you have to, which most people are going to do?".
Having once lived in a tiny apartment with no room for a dyer and no outside space either, this would have been handy. Not pretty but very useful.
Same problem here. I used a fan. Works wonders. If you're in a hurry and you need to warm your room anyway get a 10€ space heater and have it blow on your clothes (just don't put it too close and too hot and it'll be safe).
A dehumidifier would dry it way quicker
They should do drunk Irish dragons’ den.
If his tie was any shorter, I'd say it was a cry for help... lol
Hi I’m jenny
I hang my washing “out”
This Video is very DRY!
Not as dry as your pointless, irrelevant comment.
Either cant tie a tie or its a child size one
the only need for that thing is if you're poor living in a rooming house or the like
Dows this entrepreneur look like Dr. Phil or is it just me?
Do these guys ever invest ?
That comment in the end wouldn’t go through in 2020.
yes, but it should
I sincerely hope it would...and it's messed up that we don't know it would for sure! It made me laugh :)
If it’s using cold air to dry the clothes why does it need to be plugged in
To make the fan work. It is like a cooling fan except flat so can go under the rack.
The pacing of these fucking sentences jesus
My god, is this the real show or is it some Irish SNL sketch parody of Dragon's Den? Both the entrepreneur and the dragons look and behave like poorly paid comedy actors.
There is no "real" show. The UK or US version which you think is "real", are both based on the original Japanese show and concept.

The only poorly paid comedy actors are the investors and entrepreneurs on the UK show. The BBC deliberately brings on entrepreneurs and business ideas which are more suitable for TV than for investment. Large majority of accepted offers on this UK show never turn into actual deals.
The guy dresses like a good. Look at that tie- did somebody cut it off?
7:38 wow...
Triggered much?
And now Sarah hasn't a pot to pee in!
if u send this product to the china, red communist china is still a centrally controlled nation and NOT a free capitalist nation. once u send the products there, the products are usually copied and then sold off in lands other than where the actual inventor plans to sell.. its a fool's errand to send more production orders to where IP does not exist.. if u want someone to own your ideas u can read ayn rand and go with her theories.. Dimplex? I used to to work at the Cambridge Ontario Canada accounting dept.... lolo,.. they too made the error of going into the electric heating business and using china to make the heaters.. cost jobs out of Canada.. dimplex is a global type and is not a Nationalistic one. Thanks for the upload.
Guy need to learn how to wear a tie
What's with the Marilyn Monroe looking logo?
Dragons' Den Ireland
Sour doughs🙄
HI, I'M JENNY. YOUR TIE IS TOO SHORT AND THEREFORE I'M OUT.
‘Sarah your a woman, you’d know about these sorts of things’. Only funny, notable thing said during the whole thing
true, true... but this ain't a comedy show.
DLC ENERGY is supposed to be entertaining tho
Rachel not really. it depends what you're interested in. if it don't interest you, don't watch.
p.s. liked your own comment i see :}
DLC ENERGY damn it was a joke
Rachel was it... ah, you funny bleeder. what are you like. aaaah.
All these foos look the same
This is a bad joke. Silly looking device that takes hours to do the job, pitched by a guy who doesn’t know how dress- look at that tie.
Im jenny and for that reason i’m out.
🇺🇸TRUMP 2020🇺🇸
Ah boy the kid 🤣🙌
