Hi, thanks for that trilobite.

Re: Is a condenser dryer worth it?what should i look for?

you’re right wayne.never judge a book by it’s cover. shouldn’t generalise products cos their cheaper. the parts inside them may well be used by the “brand names”. we can’t tell and the manufacturers have got us by the short and curlies. why do most products seem to malfunction just after the manufacturers guarantee runs out?

Hi Trilobyte,

Thanks for that.

Just thinking is it worth getting a condenser/dryer. i hate the fact that you have to use a vent pipe with a usual tumble dryer and stick it out the window. or i could make a hole in the wall.

looking at the responses, i’d say condenser/dryers aren’t worth it. i may have to convince my Mum to stick with a usual tumble dryer.what to do?

thanks all 🙂

You can could get a WhiteKnight, which some models as others come with a Drain Pump with hose to drain water down a stand pipe.

Another good brand is Whirpool, My advise would be steer clear of brands like Proline, Hotpoint , Indesit etc although you only get what you pay for.

Trust Me I repair whitegoods for a living.

Hope This Helps

thanks for your honesty wayne, it is much appreciated.just the name zanussi brings me out in a sweat because of the extensive problems that i have had with their washing machines and washer/dryers in the past.

most models these days have a bottle at the top.

i thought hotpoint would have been one of the better brands to go for.they don’t make things like they used to.

do you have a condensation problem with your machine? do you need to keep windows open?

i’ve always regarded white knight products as cheap and not as good as other brands, maybe that’s wrong. you would know better.i’d better stop writing, people will be gtting bored.

thanks again Wayne

thanks for the response.

it is just a condenser dryer she is after.

i’ve read reviews about them and they don’t seem to be very good.
