Costing around 18-20 pence per load. Quiet enough. Pricey but worth every penny. Mine is just plugged in, but planning to connect it to the water. I was recommended this by a friend and I’m glad to have listened. This is my first ever dryer, I have nothing to compare it to. The only thing what a lot of people don’t know is that after every cycle the lint container and the water tank needs to be emptied. Amazing to see the amount of dust comes out of the clothes and the amount of water would evaporate if clothes air dried.

Thought long and hard about buying this as let’s be honest it isn’t cheap, but is it worth it? So far I am delighted with the product, haven’t had to buy a new machine for years and the difference now is incredible, much much quieter than our old machine and so many different options, looks good and cleans well. Not sure it needs the WiFi option as this is a bit of a novelty which we haven’t used yet, can’t really see the point! Overall made the right choice, you get what you pay for and time will tell I suppose, should review this after say 5 years which would be more relevant but at the moment it looks good and does exactly what we want it to.

It's great that this dryer includes a drain connection so that we don't have to manually empty it. The light inside that comes on when opening the door is a great touch to see what you're doing. The filter is very easy to change. The touch-activated buttons are a bit of an unnecessary gimmick. I'd prefer normal buttons that give tactile feedback. I have no use for the wifi connection either. Who needs an app for a tumble dryer? Just another thing to go wrong and a possible vector for compromised security. I've found that things aren't entirely dry after a completed cycle, even after 3 hours from a load that had a full spin in the washing machine. Perhaps I need to play around more with the settings, but I'd have thought it would be simpler. The machine seems to know when a load is already mostly dry as it reduces the cycle time automatically, so it should know when the load is still damp. Maybe I'm expecting too much.

Excellent machine. Very quiet, energy efficient and aesthetically pleasing. Runs effective and the app does its job well.

so far so good, good quality dryer, looks nice and runs quietly and efficiently

Perfect product

Lots of different programmes but clothes always damp when cycle finished

Great looking product and great energy rating. It may be me fumbling to work out how to use my first heat exchange dryer, but so far I’m struggling to get clothes dry! A load of cotton/linen some dry others not. A large faux fur blanket requiring a 3 hour cycle also came out damp (and quite a bit of condensation inside the dryer). So, initial impression is not great for a pretty expensive dryer. Also, AO advertised with a 5 year guarantee to be claimed via Samsung website - when I looked, after buying, the offer expired last year!
