Need to get a Tumble Dryer, thinking of sticking with condenser rather than heat pump - less to go wrong, cheaper and dries clothes quicker. Seems to be a big price difference too.
Thinking a 9kg model and not sure what, if any, are must have features, have come across sensor drying.
Looking for best bang for your buck.
Budget around £300-£500 max - the lower the price the better.

sorted byIf it takes 2hrs max - than that might change things.
BTW, I suggest you wait until boxing day sales (edited)
Boxing day sales - depends if missus can hold out that long and how much trips I can cope to the laundrette.
I save about 50% on electricity using a heat pump compared to my old one.
And I'm using it just about daily this month so it will pay for itself in about 2-3 Yr.
Also remember electricity per kwh will be going up again next year so even more savings there.
The heat pumps take twice as long to dry - condenser can dry clothes in around 2hrs whereas heat pumps take 4hrs.
More parts to go wrong with a heat pump - so longevity might be an issue - prob fail around 3-4yrs - so my thinking is might as well buy a cheap condenser - then when it fails - won't cost as much to replace.
don't heat pumps take like 4 hrs+ to dry?
