condenser dryers anygood?

[addictedtolatte]

thinking of buying a condenser dryer as the dryer in my washer/dryer takes about 2 hours to dry a sock does anyone have a condenser dryer and if yes is it any good?

yes, love mine (beko) however you still can really do with opening a window slightly if you can - it steams up like you were boiling a pan on the stove, not major, but annoying

Love mine. Tis fab.

I have a Miele condenser that we got cos we didn't have an outside wall to put a normal drier on. It's fine and doesn't cause steaming etc, but I would prefer to have it vented and might buy the kit (as we have now moved house and have an outside wall to plumb it through). It's nice in winter as it does make the kitchen a bit cosier - and I don't have it on in warm weather obviously!

i hsve a john lewis one - absolutely brilliant

john lewis one too, it's great.

I love mine, I do use it all year (ds has asthma, we both have bad hayfever so avoid pollen). I just wish it ironed aswell

thanks everyone going to have a look tomorrow and buy one or should i say dp will be buying one he just doesnt know yet

It makes like so much easier, far nicer then having washerwoman wendy's house

i love mine. just empty the water tank after every wash. mine is a Hotpoint Ultima and the water tank is at the top so its easy - some have the tank at the bottom which is tiny bit more of a pain to empty but no biggie - my last one was like that. the new one is nicer!

I have a miele tis brill.

Yes, we have a Bosch condenser and it is fantastic - had it for years and it gets a battering during the winter with clothes for a family of 5!

mine's great (now that I've figured out that the filter needs regular cleaning....had wonderd why it stopped working and then pulled out the manual to find I had to clean it once a month....I hadn't ever done it in 5 years!!! ) Oh and empty the fluff and water containers after every use (I knew that bit). I find if you take things out to fold immediately after it's finished the cycle, you can get away without ironing....and added bonus

v happy with mine - it's a Zanussi one.

Is the filter different from the fluff container then? Had better check the manual!
