Recommendation for a Heat Pump Tumble Dryer

[Butterfly44]

Looking to replace our old vented tumble dryer. Heat pump dyers seem to be popular and energy efficient but I don't know much about them. Reviews suggest they take take longer to dry and water collects like a condenser dryer that needs emptying.

Anyone got a model they are happy with and would recommend?

I got this one last year. Very happy with it. ao.com/product/dtlp71151w-beko-heat-pump-tumble-dryer-white-77816-126.aspx

I have a Beko one too but 9kg. I couldn't be without it now

We bought a Miele one-it uses pennies to dry everything. We drain it via the washing machine drain so no emptying.

I bought this one to replace my ancient vented tumble dryer. ao.com/product/wth84000gb-bosch-serie-4-heat-pump-tumble-dryer-white-69785-126.aspx. It does take longer to dry than the old one, but cists much less to run and the biggest plus is that clothes don't get so hot so I feel like it must be less damaging. Towels come out lovely and fluffy.

I have a Beko 9kg one too. I think it's great, although I haven't had a vented one to compare
