“No dryer? No problem. We are obsessed with this find,” a shopper said in a now-viral video.

“This alien-looking clothes hanger is a Kmart secret and I’m not gatekeeping. It’s a portable clothes dryer.

“Zip it up in this case, turn on its timer and it dries your wet clothes in one to two hours.

“I don’t have a dryer. This keeps me organised to count on my clothes being dry when I need them.”

Customers have given the product a five-star rating online - as many shared their glowing reviews after giving the dryer a go.

“Great product, even dries jeans. Can’t take a lot of clothing but great to dry school clothes in a hurry and doesn’t use as much electricity as a tumble dryer. Highly recommend,” one shopper claimed.

Another said: “Love the fact that when I’m not using it I can pack it away. And can double as a clothes airer by taking off the tent if you don’t need to use the heating function.”

One shared: “I love mine! Hang my work shirts and I don’t have to iron them anymore!”

While another added: “I had one of these when I was living in a shared house with no dryer - the best! I loved it especially during the winter months.”

“Hear me out... towel warmer in winter,” one suggested.

Another said: “I have a dryer but I still want this! Kmart pulling out the goods.”

While one suggested: “I needed this at the start of winter.”
