Heat Pump tumble dryers are super-efficient, but to save the most energy, programmes may take a little longer to dry your clothes than on standard dryers. It’s important not to overload the drum either, so they can perform at their best.

Can’t wait to get everything put away and the chores done for the day? Let this Hisense 9kg heat pump tumble dryer sort out the last leg of the laundry. Its Auto Dry setting uses sensors to detect when everything’s ready, so you won’t pull out soggy shirts or over-dry them. That’ll save your fave tops from extra wear and tear. You won’t miss a trick with the Drum Light too. Odd socks will have nowhere to hide. Plus, the Reversible Door means you can have it whichever way suits your setup.
