    Keen to know people thoughts on this dryer.

    • +3

      Generally all heat pump dryers perform very similarly - where they struggle is for drying sheets/doona covers whilst the cheap/normal dryers have no issues with these. Everything else is fine though - towels, clothes, underwear, socks etc.

      • +2

        Mine (Bosch) is fine with sheets. Just don't overload it with too much inside (same with towels)

      • +2

        not sure if this one has it, but you may want to look at reverse cycling heatpump dryer which alternates its direction.

        • +1

          This one has it. They call it reverse tumble.

      • +3

        Why do they struggle with sheets?

        • +47

          It sheets itself

        • +1

          Lower temperature and often ball up sheets.

          • +1

            @CommuterPolluter: Is there a better dryer that folds them? Balls of sheets don't stack very well.

        • -1

          They typically spin in a single direction. Heat pump won’t work in the reverse. Some will disengage the pump and spin in the reverse for a moment, but not equally (ie. not 60s in one direction and 60s in the other).

          Large items may tangle from being spun in one direction. To overcome this you can use drier balls.

          • +10

            @Morien: The motor that drives the drum is different from the one that drives the heat pump.

            • @bienvenu: Can you explain why many don't reverse then?

              That was my understanding of why, that the reversed motor needs to disengage the heat pump, but happy to be corrected.

          • +1

            @Morien: Dang, I have sweaty balls.

        • +1

          Yeah, pretty much what others have said. I have a newer model Samsung and to give you an idea, it took three cycles on AI dry to dry the sheets to a suitable point. I have a kingsize bed so if you have a smaller bed, then maybe it works better. Despite my model having that reverse spin feature, it loves to roll the sheets up into a ball which is likely why it needs at least three complete cycles to dry my king sheets. My previous vented/cheap dryers (with auto dry sensor) never had this issue but admittedly, they're drying at a much higher heat (even on a mid setting) hence the higher energy usage. It's not a significant complaint though - just annoying as I have to run the cycle three times or intervene half way through to untangle everything. Otherwise, I love it and it's handy that the Samsung model I have also comes with a hose kit so you can plumb it in so the condensation collected drains freely down your sink rather than building up in the inbuilt container that you have to remove and empty.

      "Eligible appliances must be purchased and installed on or after the program commencement date to be eligible for a rebate."

      Does this mean you can only purchase this after the scheme's open date of 4th September? Or can you purchase before this date and install from the 4th of September?

      • +2

        purchased and installed, so assume have to purchase it after this date

      • The invoice must be dated on/after 4/9/2023 (tomorrow)

      • I must be blind, I can't find a reference to that date, just that it has to be this year?

        /Edit - I saw the date for QLD, but I'm SA, so should be right

    • Would eBay be accepted?

      • +1

        You should get a tax invoice from Appliances Online - the ebay part should not be relevant.

  • -1

    I've got this model. It's worked perfectly for years. Never had any issues with sheets or towels.
    Just be sure the room you use it in has an exhaust fan.

    • +18

      Why? I have a heat pump, the point is that they do not blow out hot air or wet air.

      • +1

        So you can use these inside without venting?

        • +2

          Yes.

        • +2

          They either need to have their hose in a sink, or you empty the reservoir after each load.

      • Same. I have a heat pump drier, the whole point of it is that it doesn't need the room to be vented.

    • Hmmmm.. can I use it in the laundry?!

      • +7

        You'd usually put your laundry in it.

  • +1

    These generally work fine as long as you clean BOTH lint filters. Also best to not overload the dryer so it can work more effectively.

    How long is the drying cycle? 60 mins?

    • Over 2hrs normally for ours

      • +1

        2.30 for my Beko
        You have to get used to the fact that it takes longer, but uses less energy and damages clothes less, and does not leave moisture in the room and produces much less heat.

        • -2

          Interesting indeed. If it takes 2 and half hour to do the drying cycle, how is that better for energy savings?

          • @Aerith-Waifu: It uses way less than 1/2.5x the power of a traditional resistive heated dryer?

            • +1

              @sachk: When I looked into purchasing a heat pump dryer, the cost per load figures were roughly $3 for a traditional dryer, and $1 for a heat pump. Based on my usage levels, the upgrade was a no brainer.

              • -3

                @Super Tight: What? Where are you getting $3 per load from? You paying $2 k/wh?
                I contemplated a heat pump, my brother purchased one last year and doesn't rate it. Takes FOREVER to dry anything. Sheets/towels.

                These things are similar as the first EV cars. -> Good in principle, and for the environment, but with a rubbish range. (Heat pumps take ages to dry your clothes).

        • I found clothes are damaged way more with a heat pump dryer. That's in the Aldi dryer, so it may be unique to that, or the overall smoothness of the internals. I note some higher end models boast about their precise smooth internals doing less damage to clothes.

  • +1

    Do they connect the new appliance and take away the old one if you buy from their ebay store?

    • +3

      Yes. Bought a Bosch washing machine from Appliances Online eBay just last week. Their service is incredible.

  • Can this be stacked on Washing machine

        I've found that turning the clothes insideout when hanging them outside minimises that issue.
        Hmmm… wonder if wearing them that way would make them last longer?

      This is not an option though for people who are forced to live in apartments because they cannot afford a real house. Soon detached houses will be a historical relic and our cities will resemble Honk Kong.

      HI JOHNDOE HOW ARE YOU HOW ARE THE KIDS I HOPE JANET IS WELL GOD BLESS

    • Not all eligible, only the first few.

  • I have this one. Fantastic dryer and much better than previous heap pump we had.
    Fantastic price. I paid around $900 6 months or so ago and thought I got a great deal!
    The killer feature that is an absolute MUST HAVE is reverse tumble. Our previous one only tumbled one way and was hopeless for sheets, towels etc as they just got tangled into a big ball. This one has reverse tumble and therefore is set and forget

    • Hi Shaneeo - thanks for this comment, hoping you can share some of your experience with it!! How have you found this dryer for shrinking or damaging clothes?! I currently have a normal vented dryer but worry it’ll shrink things from the heat, there seems to be mixed reviews for heat pump models but this one looks quite favourable.. would you say it’s worth buying to replace a vented model (even ignoring the energy savings)? Could you use this model to dry all your washing or still need to be selective with delicates etc?!

  • Had one for about 3 years, and it broke just outside warranty. Luckily the company is very easy to deal with warranty, and refunded me the money without much hassle.

  • +1

    Can it be upside-down with drain function enabled?

    Note: this dryer CANNOT BE INVERTED AND

    • Shame it can't be wall mounted and inverted

      • +1

        No heat pump dryers (that Ive heard of) can. Too heavy.
        This one weights 55 KG's - about twice as much as a traditional clothes dryer.
        And thats before you put another 10 KGs of wet clothes in there…

  • Have one, works well

  • +1

    Mine just broke. Approx 4 years after purchase. It wasnt doing a good job towards the end

  • Do you actually need to be replacing an old appliance to get the Qld rebate?

    • Technically, yes. But i'm not sure how they can actually enforce that?

    I put my clothes on a drying rack. Its free and they dry my clothes just fine by the next day, thats living in Victoria in the winter.

    • +1

      Not a good idea as you are effectively dumping liters of water into your house making it humid & damp. Promotes mould. Dust mites like to breed in a humid environment which then creates more allergens for those with asthma. If you have excellent ventilation you are also just pumping any heat you have just paid for out side.

        Not sure if you understand what a drying rack is from your response.

        They hold a very small amount of clothing and as, "on average, after a wash cycle and spin cycle in a modern washing machine, clothes can retain about 15-30% of their weight in water", it is very unlikely to 'dump litres of water into the house'. There is also no mechanical heating used either.

        • What's 15-30% of a 10kg load?

          • @Typical16-bitEnjoyer:

            What's 15-30% of a 10kg load?

            If you read the post by @Bullion78 they are using a drying rack so it's pretty unlikely they are hanging a 10kg load of washing on it so your point is moot.

            Also, how many people even own a washing machine that takes a 10kg load? (and to efficiently wash 10kg of clothes you need a machine with a much higher capacity than 10kg).

            • -1

              @Grunntt: I own a 10kg washer. Thus why I posted what I did.

              So what's 15-30% of a 10kg load? Or will you deflect again?

                Showing yet again that you do not actually understand what a washing machine load rating means. My comment is much more relevant than your random response of "So what's 15-30% of a 10kg load?" when I was commenting on someone using a drying rack.

                Speaking of deflection - not answering your question is not deflection. It's called ignoring something irrelevant to the point being made.

                • -1

                  @Grunntt: Would you agree 15-30% of 10kg is 1.5-3.0kg?

                    and as I've written before - are you deliberately missing the point that the person being responded to was using a drying rack so what your simplistic question has to do with it is anyone's guess.
                    Secondly, it's also been pointed out to you that a 10kg load rating does not mean that what you seem to think.

                    Maybe spend some time to develop your logic and discussion skills past the point of "simple question yes or no".
                    Accept the fact that you totally missed the point and move on.

                      Accept the point demod was correct and you're dying on this hill for no apparent reason (except perhaps stupidity)

                      • @Typical16-bitEnjoyer: So now you have decided personal abuse is the way to go when you can't support your argument - seems to confirm what I had thought when you started with your playground responses.

                        Your totally pointless posts, with nothing other than poor reading skills on display, contribute absolutely nothing here so I'll go see if there's a thread elsewhere with individuals who know how to have an adult discussion.

                            @Typical16-bitEnjoyer: And yet again you demonstrate your inability to follow what is actually right in front of you - that quote you made, as though it was the start of the bullshit, was actually a response to your trolling "What's 15-30% of a 10kg load?"

                            You know - typical trolling that hates to be called out on their inability to interact with others by supporting their point with facts rather than just throwing out unsupported 'statements'. Then just fall back on insults… Yep clear to see what you are.

          • @Typical16-bitEnjoyer: The max load ratings on washing machines are usually 'best case' that operate under one or two carefully chosen wash cycles. For the typical 'daily wash' cycles, the Bosch 10kg machines have a max load rating of only 4kg.

            I find it hard to imagine even fitting 10kg of laundry into the drum of ours.
