How do you choose an affordable dryer?

Dryers up to € 550 are almost always condenser dryers. Thanks to the high drying temperature, your clothes dry relatively quickly. A full drum with space for the laundry of 1 or 2 people is dry in 2 hours on average. The disadvantage is that an affordable dryer uses a lot of energy. Due to the high drying temperature, your laundry is also more likely to shrink.

What you can expect:

• Almost always a condenser dryer.
• You pay a lot in energy costs with a B or A++ energy label (not energy-efficient).
• Laundry wears out and shrinks faster.

Do you choose a dryer between € 550 and € 600? You can mostly choose between dryers with an A++ or B energy label. A dryer with an A++ energy label is a heat pump dryer. Thanks to the heat pump, you can dry at a low temperature. As a result, your laundry doesn't shrink. This energy label isn't energy-efficient yet, but doesn't use as much power as a condenser dryer with a B energy label.

What to expect:

• Dryer with an A++ or B energy label (not energy-efficient).
• Your laundry takes longer to dry, but stays in good condition for longer.

Within this price range, you'll have more heat pump dryers to choose from. Most appliances have an A++ energy label. This allows you to dry at a low temperature, which is better for your energy bill. Most dryers within this price range are suitable for small and medium-sized laundry cycles.

What you can expect:

• Often an A++ heat pump dryer.
• Often suitable for small or medium-sized wash cycles.
• Your laundry takes longer to dry, but stays in good condition for longer.

If you want an affordable dryer, consider a Second Chance dryer. This means you purchase a dryer that has minor damages, ranging from light traces of use to visible damage. A Second Chance dryer also may have been used and returned. That's why you receive a discount.

With a dryer subscription, you have an energy-efficient dryer for a fixed monthly amount. This way, you don't have to pay a large amount at once. The useful thing about a subscription is that you have a dryer that always works. If the product breaks, we'll replace it for you within 48 hours. Are you moving? We'll move the dryer with you.
