Tumble Dryer recommendations
It’s an expensive weekend. Boiler gave up yesterday and having just paid £100 to have it fixed a few months ago, service due this week and a £300 repair require we thought we’d best cut our losses - it was 16 years old.
So, new boiler was fitted today - excellent service from our local heating engineer. Tumble dryer has now decided to stop working. It’s done well too at definitely over 12 years old. It’s a vented one we have currently but happy to consider other options. There’s just the two of us and I don’t tumble my clothes so it’s OHs work clothes, towels, underwear and bedding. Any recommendations? This is when I wish I paid for Which… |

I have a Beko condensing dryer - great dryer.
I would not recommend a Hoover dryer - had two from Currys - both had to go back as they both sounded like a cement mixer with a brick in. |

For the limited use it will get, I would just purchase the cheapest vented dryer. Simple and will dry your clothes quickly.
My neighbour £800 heat pump dryer takes 180 minutes😮 |

I bought the second cheapest, vented dryer last week in my local appliance store. It was a INDESIT I1D80WUK WHITE INDESIT DRYERS 8KG VENTED TIMER WHITE TURN&GO
£209. I love it. Dryers, to me are like microwaves. One setting is all I need. |

First think I do is Google recalls for each particular model. Then check the number of house fires they have caused.
Sounds dramatic but I would never ever leave a tumble unattended in the house. We have had a replacement from Hotpoint under their recall program. Ohh and surprise surprise the replacement started melting! I suspect Beko and Hotpoint/Indesit have the worst record for the above

Another vote for the Beko condensing dryer. Very happy with ours despite having an array of much more expensive brands in the past.
