Been looking for a dryer and beko come up best value.
Was looking at cheaper condenser ones for around £200 but this is the heat pump a++ rated one . It's £325-399 everywhere but with code cpe20 it's £279.99 plus £4.98 delivery. 2% TopCashback as well
From memory it's 25.8p a use so paying the extra will pay off in a year or two compared to b and c rated ones
Yes only one year warranty but for additional 2 it's only £38 extra. John Lewis will match £304.98 but not the £20 code I have tried. They offer 2 year warranty so if you pay £38 3 year cover it's only £15 more than jl for extra year warranty.
Seems good to me anyway for a heat pump dryer
And before people say it will burn your house down that was a few models not this one in 2012 they have now been changed.
Might buy a smoke alarm for the garage though haha

Normal condenser usually b or c rated are around 50-70p a use. A heat pump is the same but it re pumps the heat back through the clothes re using it instead of wasting it.
They take slightly longer to dry clothes but heat pumps are a rated so near half the energy cost per use.
Done a lot of reading on it the last 2 days as I was about to buy a normal condenser
Check this website out. It's good to compare dryers
It's rank 31st but look at the prices of all the ones ranked above it, some are £1000+. This beko is by far cheapest in the top ranked dryers. £449 for a Siemens to £1899 for a meile. The costs are not much different to this £285 one. Bargain for what you get imo

Exactly what I was about to do, was after the 7230 black but this come up when I was searching for it with a++ rating so looked into it to see why it was rated much better.
Can't find a heat pump one anywhere near this price any make or shop. Even currys have this at £399 with £20 off today and they seem to be having some decent bargains on at the minute. Only downside I can't get it in black. Sitting in a garage so not too bothered.

Mmmm do these work out cheaper if they take 3 hours to dry clothes compared to 1.5 hours a standard dryer takes. Its A rated but takes longer to dry so it probably works out the same.

The cycle costs are half the price.

See that link I posted . Change to before 2013, it tells you price per kg and price per cycle. If you look on beko website the time per cycle is like 5 minutes longer, I don't mean it takes hours longer. The price per cycle is the price per cycle. If you use it every other day 25-40p each time soon adds up. Even the b rated one is about 52p per use from memory and the price difference is £70 to buy extra so that's worth paying. But I wouldn't pay £399 for this as that's £180 extra and would take years to pay for its self. If this lasts 10 years you should save in energy more than it cost compared to buying a c or b rated one.

You need to educate yourself on how the EU energy label system works.
