I'm sure this dryer is very efficient and does save costs... but as a tumble dryer.. it doesn't do it's job very well! It struggles to dry my towels and sheets after 8 hours or 2 full cycles, sometimes running into the second day of drying. It can get quite tedious in a large household with lots of laundry to do. I much prefer the old condenser dryer that I had switched from to be honest. On the off chance that I have a faulty machine I've contacted AO who sent me contact info for Haier who in turn weren't much help. Hopefully others have a better experience with the actual drying performance of the machine (not just it's costs effectiveness) but I wanted to share my experience.

Fabulous product, lots of useful settings and we can dry a load of clothes for about 55p (useful to know in the current climate). The product is really heavy and seems great quality, easy to empty the water, lint and condenser filter too. I’ve already recommended this product to other people.

I must admit coming from a condemning drier it takes notably longer (I find the average load, from a full washing machine takes around 3.5 - 4 hours), but I worked out the cost to be around 45p per load, as opposed to £1.35 with the previous machine so it's worth it. The drier goes on around 7 times a week with small people getting messy, so I think I'll make the cost back in electricity bill savings in around a year and half, and that's ignoring the current price increases! Machine does a fab job, and modifies the dry time depending on how wet things are for you, and the handy phone buzz to tell you it's done is great too! Well made and very quiet. Feels a quality product.

Very quiet dryer easy to operate and install

Quiet Heat pump tech seems to as well as a normal condenser - hopefully the A++ rating brings some returns over time

Compared to my old tumble dryer, it uses less energy and drys clothes in a similar time or quicker. All in all very pleased with my purchase.

Great delivery - drivers kept in contact and were speedy dropping off. The dryer is great, takes a while as others have said but not a problem for us.

Great easy to use, plug and play dryer. Only issue is the smart i-sense detection of clothing dryness is poor, shuts off premetuly leaving items slightly damp.
