I am thinking of buying one and would like recommendations if you have one. It's important that it has reverse tumble action .

I have a samsung one and its crap. Fails to dry clothes

We have a Grundig one at work. Works well, occasionally need to stick it back on for 10mins to make sure clothes are fully dry but I get that with my condenser dryer at home too.

I have a Candy one and it’s brilliant! Big 9kg capacity and it dries every load thoroughly. But more expensive but it’s A+++ so I don’t feel like a planet killer everytime I switch it on

I second Candy! Love mine Smile

Do you mind giving the model number for the Candy one?

We have a beco and I love it. It takes a long time to drying completely wet clothes but works well for me

We had the Samsung one and it was utterly shit and broke down so many times I ended up emailing the ceo of AO to complain saying I wanted a refund! They agreed to replace it with whatever I wanted. Went with a cheap ish Bosch standard one and had no issues in the 4 years since.

My candy one is a rapido about £330 from Argos

I've had a Bosch one for about a year and it's fine. I think it takes a bit longer than the previous one I had but I don't mind that. Nearly everything comes out thoroughly dry.

Im not sure whether to buy a Candy or Beko one (both get good reviews) with a one year warranty or go for something much more expensive with a five year warranty. I've heard Heat Pump driers break down more often than condenser driers.

Had a Bosch but it failed constantly so replaced with a cheaper Bosch condenser. Heat pump are more efficient but are more expensive to buy and seem to take longer.

I have a samsung one and love it. Never had a problem with it
