I'm still amazed at how shows like this don't actually understand how a heat pump works. Jon says that the heat pump dryer re-uses it's hot air, well so do ALL condenser dryers. A heat pump dryer IS a condenser dryer. The difference is that it has a refrigerant gas which works like a fridge to convert heat in the air into usable heat for the dryer.
@@aledhutchinson273 In what way don't I understand? The refrigerant gas is compressed and condenses into liquid, giving off heat which it uses inside the drum. What is it I don't understand. The moisture also condenses, and the condensate is pumped into a water container for disposal. Heat pump dryers are condenser dryers as they take the moisture from the clothes in that way, just as do non-vented standard condenser dryers. Maybe it's you who doesn't get it.
So true. They totally miss the difference between the way a traditional dryer heats the air with an element drawing some 3.5kwh in the process to the heatpump technology that warms the air using tech similar ro that found in your fridge and draws around 700w in the process. It's far more than just recycling air!! I have the Samsung Series 9 and it is fantastic.

@@bennie7755 Nope. I’ve had a terrible experience with Hotpoint and indesit. Caught fire in my kitchen. Also, the quality was very poor. I’ve had Bosch, Miele and AEG in the past and it’s lasted years. It’s what ever you like in my opinion. If you like Hotpoint go for it 🤣
My Washer is near top of range Hotpoint (last Hotpoint washer lasted 17 years - just needed $25 power suppressor box). I have LG flagship eco hybrid dryer (heat pump), Smeg dish washer, Samsung fridge, LG OLED TV. My point is I buy top end stuff, but nothing beats the Hotpoint washer for your money (650 GBP it cost few years ago). If I spent double on washer it would have got me extra Wi-Fi gimmick (my dryer, fridge, dishwasher & Bosch oven has Wi-Fi). Wi-Fi is only good if it loaded the clothes/dishes/food etc. otherwise its of no use, especially if you can use time delay on Hotpoint lol 😂 😂 (we hardly ever use wi-fi on appliance's except for Oven)
I have the Samsung one, very good; totally drying all. Also I keep it at room-temperature ~20C, perfect. Hooking it up to SmartThings is also brilliant.
Me too, I have the same as in the video. It's 5 years now and still works good, every load is completely dry. Too bad there's no light in the drum though.
I have a Samsung series 9 (which is really expensive) but the Hoover H-DRY 300 looks good value. My old B rated indict used 3 times more electric per dry. Drying times were also similar.

Just Avoid hotpoint and indesit .
Whats really interesting about tumble dryers these days they just don’t thoroughly dry clothes. The sensors are just not sensitive enough to detect moisture in clothes. On test 2 they all could still feel moisture in the garments, which for me is an immediate fail, the customer needs the option to turn the sensor off. Because slightly moist socks just isn’t good. I also think dryers are viewed in a way that the customer has unlimited amount of time to dry there garments. In this day and age, speed is just as important as efficiency as there’s going to be more times where you need to turn a garment around quickly but with manufacturers focus on efficiency has meant a quick turn around isn’t possible.
It doesn’t help that this was not a fair test. Heat pump tumble dryers need ambient room temperature of at least 10ºC to work properly and manufacturers do not recommended they be used outside as the air they take in is just not the right temperature/humidity. I've had tumble dryers for about 25 years now (3 different makes) and the majority of the time my clothes have come out perfectly dry.
Moisture sensors these days just aren’t that accurate since there’s only 1 moisture sensor as opposed to dryers made many years ago that had multiple inside the drum to give a more accurate reading. Maytag here in the US invented moisture sensors as far back as 1960, they put the moisture sensors in the baffles to give a VERY accurate level of dryness and probably was one of the best moisture sensor dryers EVER made. Even a simple auto dry timer that advances the timer motor when the heating element or burner cycles off is a bit more accurate as well.
I have an LG head pump dryer. If I put it on cottons + cupboard dry, then everything comes out slightly damp. If I select extra dry (takes about 20min longer) then everything comes out bone-dry. I'm quite pleased with it. It gets the job done in nearly the same amount of time as my old Miele condenser dryer, while using 1/3 of the electricity.
@thesodaboys I have a Miele heat pump tumble dryer and everything comes out dry if I use cottons or automatic drying. And it only use 20p per hour. My old white knight condenser used 90p per hour. They take longer yes! But for how little they use I think it’s worth it. I had mine 2nd hand as just to expensive upfront. Compared to an ordinary dryer.
It's only as good as it lasts. Reliability isn't good. I worked in appliance repairs for Currys/pc world for 8 years in an engineer/repair agency. I would still choose AEG and Samsung over Hotpoint.
If you set the Samsung to dryness level 3 they would have dried perfectly. When you get a new machine try different settings and see what is best for you. That’s what I did and love my Samsung heat pump dryer.
I have been watching other reviews of heat pump dryers and it appears they all, even the best and most expensive ones, render the clothes a little damp at the end of their cycle. However, reviewers discovered that a few minutes of exposure to the air took care of the residual dampness and the clothes were totally dry. Perhaps you needed to go back and check the clothes a few minutes after they had come out of the dryers?
hotpoint definitely won and definitely takes a win for looks over the aeg, seems a fairly fair test although weather they activated hotpoints active care button which also tumbles after the end of a cycle we won’t know but id definitely choose the hotpoint
@@paulhilling6208 I can't see how it something so complex would be more reliable than my tumble dryer which has a heater, motor, timer and vent. Not much to go wrong and hasn't in the 25 years I have owned it. I doubt these would hast more than 5 years.
@@UnCoolDad I had to replace the heating element twice and the opps panel as the power button failed, on my old beko. Unless the gas escapes from a closed system or filters are left to clog should be fine.
If you really want a dryer that’s energy efficient to use and drys fairly quickly, a gas dryer is your best bet. Probably one of the cheapest dryers to use since they only pull 300 watts or so of power when running vs the over 2000 to 3000 watts a electric version will use.
you're still burning gas on top which isn't cheap. Plus there's no heat pump involved in the equation so no recycling of the heat in the drum. I'd rather have an electric heat pump. I only pay 5p per kWh off peak so it's way cheaper for me and much more efficient than gas
@@alcurtis93 I live in Southern California, if you were to use a electric vented or heat pump dryer, your bill will be over $500 to $600 in the spring and summer months and easily close to $900 or $1000 in the winter months if you have a home that’s all electric and heated only with electric. A gas dryer (and gas appliances in general) will reduce your bill be hundreds since you are only consuming only 300 to 400 watts of electric vs the amount a electric version will use. A heat pump might be slightly more efficient but is more complex since it after all is a refrigeration system and you can’t fix them by yourself if you don’t have the equipment and in some areas you may not even be licensed to work on any sort of refrigeration system since you have to properly dispose of the refrigerant and such.
@@seana806 things are quite different in the UK. The energy markets have gone mad. I don't think you'd save anything with a gas machine presently and they don't sell them over here for that reason

You still can have dry clothes while you sleep with one third of power that you use for your with the old tech dryer. I wonder, why did you wake up in the night to check the clothes?
Why did they conduct the test in a non-domestic setting? What temperature was the workshop? - expect it was not the right temperature for a heat pump dryer to work effectively.

Omg the test wasn't controlled you should have dried all the cloths in each one, repeating on each machine. Splitting the load isn't correct as different cloths materials end up in each dryer. Leaving the dryer to perform the entire cycle. Then monitor time and power usage
You can’t grab a handfull of clothes, scrunch them together when getting them out and then complain that there are a few creases! Take items out one at a time you absolute thugs!
Quite frankly I couldn't care less how much energy they use - if I cared about energy, I'd hang my clothes on a line... if I use tumble dryer I expect full load of clothes to be bone dry in less than 90 minutes. None of these seem capable of such feat which is disappointing...
Drying a handful of rags in a tumble dryer in the middle of a garage is NOT going to give realistic, real-world results. Also, you say they all ran for 1hr 45 min when at one point one of them clearly shows 2hr 51min on the display! This is not a fair test at all and as it is sponsored by Curry's, I think we can all work out why you've chosen the ones you have! What an absolute con!
Worse things ever clothes tangle as they dont turn both ways when on cycle take hours to dry and clothes come out smelling fousty worse £450 spent gave it away and went back to my old crusty in the shed again

Quite frankly I couldn't care less how much energy they use - if I cared about energy, I'd hang my clothes on a line... if I use tumble dryer I expect full load of clothes to be bone dry in less than 90 minutes. None of these seem capable of such feat which is disappointing...
Buy a condenser then.
Drying a handful of rags in a tumble dryer in the middle of a garage is NOT going to give realistic, real-world results.
Also, you say they all ran for 1hr 45 min when at one point one of them clearly shows 2hr 51min on the display!
This is not a fair test at all and as it is sponsored by Curry's, I think we can all work out why you've chosen the ones you have!
What an absolute con!
Worse things ever clothes tangle as they dont turn both ways when on cycle take hours to dry and clothes come out smelling fousty worse £450 spent gave it away and went back to my old crusty in the shed again
IDGAF about energy efficiency Are my clothes dry... how quickly do they do it and do they do it without ruing my clothes. These are garbage
Had a Hotpoint heat pump dryer over 5 years, broke down six times. 4 times out of warranty. Totally useless pile of junk. AVOID this advert for them!!!
