Best Tumble Dryers

Make light work of laundry day with this tumble dryer from Beko. With an 8kg drum, it’s ideal for medium-sized households. Because this is a condenser model, the moisture collected during the drying process is stored in a removable tank. This makes it easy to empty and means you can place this dryer anywhere in your kitchen, as it doesn’t need external venting. You won’t have to separate different fabrics before throwing them in the machine either, thanks to the handy Mixed Dry cycle, which lets you dry synthetics and natural fibres together. And the Cupboard Dry programme leaves clothes bone dry, so you can put everything away as soon as it’s done.

Gone are the days of relying on the weather to dry laundry, thanks to this nifty black Electra tumble dryer. Because it’s a condenser model, it removes moisture from clothes and collects it in a tank that’s easy to remove. Not only does this mean it’s simple to empty, but the dryer can also be placed anywhere in your home as it doesn’t need to be vented. It’s great for medium-sized households too, because it has an 8kg drum. And, to make things even easier, there’s a range of programmes to suit each load – the quick dry option leaves everything ready to wear in no time, while the shirt cycle is more delicate, protecting the cuffs and collars on your officewear.

Thanks to the wool programme, you can keep all your favourite knitted items looking great as well, as it uses lower temperatures to protect delicate fabrics. This model also works with the Smart Touch app, which lets you monitor the cycle and even download new programmes from your Android smartphone.

Effortlessly tackle the laundry heap with this tumble dryer from Sharp. It has an 8kg drum capacity, meaning it’s great for medium-sized households. And thanks to its Heat Pump technology evaporating moisture from your clothes by recycling hot air inside, it’s more energy-efficient too. There’s also a handy Allergy Cycle, which is a programme that uses higher temperatures to get rid of allergens like dust. This means you won’t be sneezing away at work when wearing your favourite woollen jumper. Plus, the Easy Iron Function gently tumbles your clothes to reduce wrinkles and to save you from ironing in the morning before work.

Leave your laundry perfectly dry with this graphite tumble dryer from Beko. It has an 8kg drum, making it ideal for medium-sized households. Because this is a heat pump model, it saves you energy by recycling the hot air used during the cycle, so it’s kinder to the environment. You won’t have to wait for your clothes to get cold before they’re ready to put away either, as it automatically cools the load at the end of the programme. You can then pop everything in the cupboard right away. If you’ve been caught in a rainstorm while out walking the dog, there’s also a handy Extra Dry setting, which will leave even the bulkiest winter coats as dry as a bone.
