Tumble dryers

How the dryer dries makes most of the difference. A heat pump model uses far less energy, dries at a lower temperature and is gentler on fabrics, though its cycles take longer. A vented dryer needs an air outlet to the outside. The filter and water container need regular cleaning, and a moisture sensor, more useful than special programmes, prevents over-drying.

The buying guide

Choose by use

The right product depends on the situation. Each page below takes the category’s criteria and changes their weight for one specific need.

Tumble dryer for a large family Tumble dryer for a household with several children: drum capacity and cycle speed matter more than quietness or purchase price here. Read Budget tumble dryer for a small home Tumble dryer for a studio or small flat: consumption and price come first here, ahead of drum capacity or drying speed. Read

What we rate in this category

Every product in the category is rated from 0 to 100 on these criteria : the same for all of them, whichever merchant sells it.

Read the full method
Capacity
This criterion indicates the weight of laundry the drum can dry at once: the longer the bar, the more a large load fits in a single cycle.
Quietness
This criterion measures the sound level during drying: the longer the bar, the less the appliance is noticed around the home.
Speed
This criterion measures the duration of a standard drying cycle: the longer the bar, the faster the laundry gets dry.
Consumption
This criterion assesses the energy used to dry laundry over a series of cycles: the longer the bar, the less it weighs on the electricity bill.
Price
This criterion compares the price found to that of other tumble dryers on the market: the longer the bar, the better the price.

Price brackets by tier

Orders of magnitude, not displayed prices: a price only appears on Kalyneo once it has been collected from a merchant, with its collection date.

Under 350 €

Basic vented or condenser drying, modest capacity and high running costs, with no humidity sensor to stop the cycle at the right time.

350 to 600 €

Heat pump technology appears, capacity grows and a humidity sensor limits over-drying, trading longer cycles for lower running costs.

Over 600 €

Large capacity, quiet and fast heat pump drying, easier filter upkeep, for low energy use load after load.

The buying guide for this category Buying guide: how to choose a tumble dryer A tumble dryer is chosen mainly on capacity, noise level and energy use over time. These factors matter more than the purchase price alone, since they show up every week in the home and on the electricity bill. Read the guide
