FANCY A QUICK TUMBLE...

Advantages: No need for a vent. Dries laundry well and has a sensor.
Disadvantages: Generates a lot of heat. Not the most compact model in the world.

...?t had it long enough to have to repair it yet, but the service we?ve had from Creda in the past has been good, so we should be ok there too. If you are after a tumble dryer and have not considered a condenser one before then you can?t do wrong by looking at this one. ~~If you need any info on this or any other Creda products go to http://www.creda.co.uk/creda/home.htm ~ there?s a link to the Customer Service Centre. ~~If you want to buy anything from unbeatable.com go to www.unbeatable.com...

Review of Creda T632CW Condenser Tumble Dryer

Creda T622CW Condenser Dryer.

Advantages: No hose to vent, warms up house!
Disadvantages: Noise, running cost.

...We were bought this tumble dryer as a moving in gift for our new house, finally having space to put a tumble dryer. We went for the condenser type because there is no need for a vent to the out side, which up here in the north west of Scotland is the last thing you want during a winter gale, believe me! OPERATION.. The controls for the dryer are easy to understand and operate, the timer is settable up to 120 mins and is clearly marked. The heat setting is a 'push in/out' type with two options, low or high. There is a light that comes on when you need to empty the water bottle, but more about that latter on. The instruction book is fairly good, but i didnt pay to much attention to it. INSTALLATION.. The dryer is quite heavy and i would advise you to sweet talk who ever delivers it to your home into getting it as close to...

My New Tumble Dryer Balls

Advantages: Cut down on drying time
Disadvantages: None

...the need to use a softener during washing. Dryer Balls tumble around with your clothing as it is drying, they lift and separate the clothes as they dry thus reduce the static build up and the little nodules on the balls massage the fibres of your clothing making them softer and fluffier. My Findings When I first opened the Dyer Balls and took them from the packet I was really quite surprised at how hard and solid they felt, I had imagined them to be soft, this made me very nervous at the thought of putting them in the dryer with my washing, I thought I might be opening up the dryer to find my washing all ripped up! Nevertheless I was intrigued to find out what these balls could do for my washing, so the first time I used them I decided to put them in with 3 pairs of jeans. Denim jeans I thought would stand up better to the dryer...

HOTPOINT 7KG CONDENSER TUMBLE DRYER

Advantages: Large capacity, can be put anywhere, stylish design
Disadvantages: Can make the room warm

...My husband and I bought this condenser when we were moving into our new house - previously we had a tumble dryer with a hose but in our new house there was no actual space for the tumble dryer so we had to take a cupboard out for it and it wasn't very practical to have a hose running across the middle of the kitchen to the window!! So we decided to get a condenser (my mum has one and highly recommended them), it basically takes away the need for a hose as the water goes into a container built in to the tumble dryer. This means you can put it anywhere in the house! It does still make the room quite warm but I just shut the kitchen door and it's not a problem. This particular model looks really stylish in graphite (we actually went and bought all of our appliances in this colour because we liked it so much!). It also hold 7kg...

Zanussi Condenser Tumble Dryer TCE 7277W

Advantages: Low noise level, easy to empty water container,energy efficiency
Disadvantages: Makes my washing machine look ancient!

...My Hotpoint tumble dryer gave up the ghost after 3 years & was not economical to repair!! Ciao gave me some ideas from reviews and I short listed several makes/models including a Zanussi - a make that I have never bought before as I was put off by the name (don't ask me why, the name never appealed!) My sister who is EXTREMELY fussy about everything has always had Zanussi white goods & raves over them so this time I allowed myself to look at them & glad I did! I saw the review for the Zanussi TCE7124W & decided that was the one for me, on average about £250.shame no one had it in stock! Then I was told it had been replaced by the TCE7227W & at £299-00.???OK £50 above budget but I researched it anyway & everywhere I read about it it came up glowingly! So I opted for this Zanussi TCE7227W, a large 7kg Condenser dryer...

Tesco Bounce Out The Competition

Advantages: Does what it says on the tin. Almost a quarter of the price of the "named" brand.
Disadvantages: Nothing of any note. The box is not as robust as its more famous counterpart.

...down, and having limited my previous visits to Tesco to things of a generally edible nature, I wandered, ever so slightly dazed and confused, down the cleaning and laundry products aisle in search of ?tumble dryer sheets?. I eventually found what I was instructed to retrieve ? an attractive looking yellow box of ?Bounce Summer Breeze? ? but baulked when I saw the £3.37 price tag. I had a vague idea of what tumble dryer sheets were supposed to do (make your clothes smell nice at an educated guess) so when I spotted a plainer and slightly less loud blue box of Tesco ?Summer Fresh? Tumble Dryer Sheets next to it for the more reasonable and miserly sum of £0.94, common sense kicked in and I plumped for the "value" alternative. USE & PERFORMANCE This is simplicity itself. Just place a sheet in your tumble dryer with your wet wash...

Outstanding Tumble Dryer

Advantages: easy to use, automatic sensor drying, anti crease function, timer function
Disadvantages: none

...display and a dial is used to select the desired program. The machine has a sensor to detect how much moisture is left in the laundry and adjusts drying times accordingly. Positioning There is no room in our kitchen for a tumble dryer and space in the rest of the house is at a premium. The only place for it to go was in the garage, and as vented models tend to be cheaper than condenser models we decided to get a vented model. Plus there was already a pre cut hole in the wall for the exhaust pipe. This did mean however that we had to tidy and clean an area of the garage. The dryer must be located in a clean place with plenty of space for air to circulate freely around it. The air intake grills are on the rear of the dryer and must not be obstructed. The dryer must also be level on a hard, flat, heat resistant surface. It has adjustable...

A great tumble dryer

Advantages: Drys clothes in no time
Disadvantages: Slightly noisey

...Having three kids and a husband, my washing seems to be never ending, and then trying to find enough drying space was also a nightmare, so about two years ago we decided to buy a tumble dryer. We bought the Proline TDC7A from a local shop and it cost around £190 including delivery, The tumble dryer was delivered the following day. The dryer is quiet heavy but it`s on wheels and it is easy enough to move about, as this machine is a condenser we were able to put it anywhere in the kitchen which was handy. Features of the tumble dryer include two heat settings, 140 minute spinning time, a water drawer, and a warning light when drawer is full and on the dryer is a list of times that it should take clothes to dry depending on what tempeture you choose. Using the dryer is quiet easy, once clothes are loaded you choose which...

Energy Efficient Tumble Dryer

Advantages: Extra Large 7kg Capacity, Energy Saving, 6th Sense Technology System & Filter Full Alert
Disadvantages: Regular Cleaning Required

...The Whirlpool AWZ7913 tumble dryer also known as the 6th Sense condenser dryer is ideal for those rainy days when its impossible to hang your clothes outside to dry. I'm not too keen on tumble dryers but had to get one for exactly that reason. I went with Whirlpool because of the good reputation it has in manufacturing these types of appliances. The tumble dryer comes in only one colour, white which would fit nicely in any kitchen. The main features and functions of the Whirlpool tumble dryer are: - Extra large 7kg capacity which is excellent for drying large items, the extra space helps reduce tangling and creasing also makes ironing much easier. With more room for the clothes to move around, laundry dries faster which in return saves energy and time. - Energy Saving, the tumble dryer is recommended by the energy saving trust...

Review of Whirlpool AWZ7913

A really great product.

Advantages: Everything.
Disadvantages: None.

...Tesco Tumble Dryer Sheets: Living in a second floor flat makes drying my clothes difficult; I have a washing line but who wants to carry a basket full of heavy, wet clothes down two flights of concrete stairs? Instead I rely on my tumble dryer to dry larger items such as bedding and towels, (the rest get dried on a washing line in my bathroom). I find that a lot of the time everything sticks together and this means the outer parts start to over heat, (my tumble dryer is ancient and the thermostat either doesn?t exist or doesn?t work), and the inside bits stay damp. I decided I needed to fork out for a packet of ?Bounce? but was dreading it as the price is ridiculous, (£3.47 for 40 sheets). Well to say I was pleased to see the Tesco own brand at 96p a box is an understatement so into the trolley they went! The box the sheets come in is...
