Sunlu via Amazon.This is a similar idea to the PolyDryer as far as storing the filament, but is a bit larger. It can accommodate up to a 3kg spool or two 1kg spools. Dries up to 70°C .

It kind of depends on the type of filament. In a climate controlled environment, PLA you should be fine just keeping it out. Many filaments are more hygroscopic like TPU, PETG, Nylon and they can absorb moisture pretty easily. Even in climate controlled environments, the above mentioned other than PLA should be dried prior to using or it can lead to some big headaches. If only purchasing a dryer for drying versus drying & storing, there are cheaper alternatives to the one in this OP. The benefit of this one versus some of the others is you can have multiple dryer boxes and use them for storing filament after drying them. This one has a base that you can attach and remove the dryer boxes.

Imo, if you are just starting off, I'd recommend starting with PLA and once you get a bit more comfortable printing, then try PETG and or TPU. PLA is the easiest filament to print with and learn with. I would start off on PLA and hold off on buying a dryer until you move on to one of the more moisture absorbing filaments.

Just a warning... 3D printing is so much fun and addictive Smilie

You are so right about printing. I bought my first, a Bambu H2D, two weeks ago and it hasn't stopped printing since I set it up. I plan my days so that I cam be sure it is constantly printing.
