Advantages: Able to dry indoors without needing a vent. Disadvantages: High energy consumption in comparison to more expensive dryers.
...prices we decided on the Beko Condenser dryer. It was just over £200 and our budget could just stretch to that. We then went over to Comet to have a closer look at it before making a purchase. We then ordered it and with most places the delivery charge for a tumble dryer was quite high - £25. However we didn't have much choice. It comes with the usual 1 year manufacturer's guarantee and you can of course get extra cover at a price. It came delivered ... ...polystyrene. The only place we had to fit it was on a small work surface above the washing machine. But it fitted there perfectly! It is not a top brand that I knew of but I had read a couple of reviews that were positive so I was fairly confident that it would be a good purchase. It is a fairly big machine (85.0x60.0x56.0 (H/W/D) cm) but looks good above the washing machine. It is nothing special to look at just a basic white dryer. Although I preferred ...

Advantages: Dry to wear ( less ironing has to be a plus), easy to use, Disadvantages: can't think of any at the moment...
We already own a Becko washing machine so were comfortable with buying this make again. With such a small area to have a tumble dryer we needed a condenser, and this one seemed very well priced with lots of features which you would normally find only on higher priced machines.
I have to say I LOVE this dryer. The controls are easy to understand, the wide square opening makes loading it really easy, and the light inside means I don't leave items ... ...wear' feature has been great, and does just that. I haven't had to get the iron out for weeks now, and as I hate ironing that is a major plus for me.
the water tank placement makes for easy emptying, the filter is just as easy to reach and clean.
It can be a little noisy, but no more than any other dryer I have owned.
I had read reviews saying that it was not a pretty looking dryer, so was pleasently surprised at how good it looked in my kitchen.

Advantages: condensor and sensor features Disadvantages: doesn't seem to get clothes dry very effectively
I have found that this is quite a poor machine. I bought it because I wanted a sensor on the machine to avoid timed programmes still running once the items are dry. I have found that this machine's definition of dry and mine are not the same. I also wanted a condensing machine as it is difficult in my kitchen to vent a machine, and this wasw the cheapest machine that offered both features. However, I think it is true in this case that you get what ... ...clothing, although I usually have to add some time if I want to put clothes away immediately. Where it really has a problem is on heavy cotton items such as towels, and particularly bedding. I have found bedding gets very tangled up and takes quite a lot of unravelling and is still soaking wet in the middle of the "bundle". It also seems to take quite a lot longer than my old machine to get things dry.
One of the features that persuaded me to buy ...

Quick review of Beko DRCS68W
Don't buy it. You have been warned. We got one Feb 08. We've had the engineer out twice. Two faults - both of which we have to put up with as they have advised us of what to do to rectify. First - leaves dirty grey marks on light colours. Coming from rim (something to do with grease leaking through from internals. Advised to clean rim occassionally. Problem is you don't know when it is time until it has happened. My duvets and sheets are ruined. Second - sensor doesn't work so occassionally needs cleaned with vinegar to clear. I'll never buy Beko again. Told this is a fault with all these models. ...

Advantages: Fits into the modern family really well Disadvantages: none
...We have never owned a Beko before and really didn't know what to expect but this has been a very good buy and we would definately be buying this brand again. Would seriously recommend it over a washer dryer any day as the dryer part of ours broke down within the year and just can't be fixed. Extremely good value for money. Top marks. ...
