Tumble dryer types and recommendations

mahoney

Hi,
Looking to buy a new tumble dryer as the one we have blows the electrics whenever it does more than a very light load.
So, the one we have now is in a garage - not plumbed in.  It's one where you tip the water out and remove the lint - condenser i think.  I like it as it gets rid of fluff and bits off clothes - we have a dog so it removes dog hair which I love, and it fluffs towels up.
We previously also had a washer dryer, so plumbed in.  I didn't like that as it was really slow to dry and there was no fluff collecting
I've started to look at dryers and I see there is also a 3rd type which is a heat pump one - they sound slow, but efficient -  not sure if they need to be plumbed in.  Plus, if they are reeeeaaaallllly slow, then i can leave stuff on the clothes horse
Any advice/recommendations? 
Thank you

Heat pumps can be slow.  Between 2 and 3 hours for a full load.
