Condensor tumble dryer recommendation please

debsthe1

I have a Bosch Condensor dryer and wouldn't be without it! It also doubles up as a heater for the kitchen!!

I have never had any problems with dribbling -I suppose the indicator light/buzzer helps when the water container requires emptying. Good luck!

I am now going into my 5th year with a white knight, not had any trouble at all with it (and it's used more than it should be!!) would get one again and definately recommend, it was one of the cheaper models when i bought it!

Not sure if any good but Tesco Extra stores always seem very cheap

I have a Zanussi condensor drier, bought it from John Lewis in March this year. It's great, so used to having it now that I wouldn't be without it. Not had an issue with it since I bought it

I was looking for a tumble drier 2 months ago and ended up getting a vented type one to avoid the need of emptying the water collection tank by having a hole drilled in the wall for the venting pipe.

If I was getting a condensor type I would check that the water collection tank is towards the top of the drier rather at the bottom, for saving your back by bending low to empty the tank.

We have a condenser and it takes about one hour to dry a full tub of clothes. I think we have a Whirlpool, we've had it for ages and it's still working okay. A set of bedding will dry in about 30 mins.

Ours doesn't dribble any water, but it does create some heat and general moisture because there is no outlet.

There is a plastic tank container at the bottom of the dryer that slides out and is easy to empty.

thanks have now been looking at a whirlpool one that rated good in a which report..............however being completely money saving I may just keep my very very old second hand one and open the door and window when using it..not ideal but I dont really use the tumble dryer a huge amount. Will put the money into an account for when it goes wrong!

Can anyone recommend a good condensor tumble dryer around the £200 mark.

Ideally I would like sensor drying and was looking at this one from currys

however I have been looking at reviews and it seems like BEKO isnt very reliable.

Hoping one of the fellow MSE can point me in the right direction

One pieve of advice.

I got my sensor one so it would turn off when the things were dry & save electric.

BUT mine:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: mine carries on tumbling forever (without heat) after they are dry, so as they don't crease.

So you couldn't put mine on before you go out or to bed, as it would still be tumbling 8 hours later:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I suspect a lot of them do this because of creasing (I have to iron it anyway), so watch out for this;)
