That is interesting, on my first use of them people were inserting their
hands into the spaces provided rather than holding them over the top but I
guess that is an option. Out of interest there is a good "how to use" video
that people may like to see on the web-site

Subject: Re: Dyson Hand Dryers
My analysis of the product was not that it required any dexterity other
than to raise both hands simultaleously and hold them over the vertical
jet,
However it appeared that the projection of the unit would not allow deep
enough knee space to achieve proximity.

Subject: Dyson Hand Dryers
I have a specific question regarding the new 'award winning' Dyson
airbalde hand dryers. A client has installed these in all WCs at a new
HQ including at lower level in the accessible cubicles. The question
has been raised as to whether these are 'accessible' as they require the
user to have more dexterity than a standard dryer...any
experience/opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Clare
