According to our dryer expert
The AEG T8DBE86W can efficiently dry 8kg of laundry and protects your clothing. With AbsoluteCare, you don't have to be afraid that your clothes will shrink. The dryer accurately adjusts its drum movement and temperature to the type of fabric in the drum. There are 10 different cycles to choose from. That means you can easily dry your soft woolen sweater, new dress shirt, or your silk blouse. When selecting a cycle, choose the anti-crease phase to prevent stubborn creases. Do you want to drain the condensation water collected from your clothes automatically? Connect the included condensation drain hose to your drainage system, and you'll never have to empty the condenser reservoir.

Was a bit hesitant, a heat pump dryer is admittedly more economical, but it would take so much longer for the laundry to dry than with a condenser dryer. 3x less power has won me over. It does indeed take a little longer, I also put the washing machine on eco! Are they both ready at the same time and I use even less power!

Good. Old dryer gave many and often malfunctions, and repair was more expensive than what it had ever cost new. something with chips and defects and old model... Anyway: on Sunday afternoon the men from CoolBlue came to install it. Connected to the drain, so never empty the water tank again... .and, new (for us): with a glass door.
Installation was a piece of cake: the selection took considerably longer. Because whether you choose a heat pump or not. Many complaints with heat pump dryers were about the drying result that was disappointing. But further research also showed that for properly dry laundry from a heat pump dryer, the temperature of the place where it is also important. Cold spot (garage, cold/unheated utility room = poor result, room temperature = good result). Now we have a small but modest laundry room on the first floor (= kind of room temperature), we want to try to use as little as possible (environment + wallet) the duration is not really important: never be eager to use the dryer have to shoot. And this one was on offer. Cool Blue's choice, friend discount... it seemed reasonably priced compared to comparable models (choices / options). But, that was still good and search. Anyway, after installation have a cup of coffee and watch the first wash dry together through the glass window. Something different than Netflix and quite soothing, such a revolving wax.
What was different compared to the previous one: with this one you have a lot of choice from different types of textiles to dry. Even wool and silk. And then different variations in dry: cupboard-dry (is not very dry, but if you still want to iron, more than fine), cupboard-dry+ (dry! Can go straight into the cupboard)… and something with sun… say cork-dry. We haven't used it yet and we didn't need it. What you cannot choose (with the previous one) is the temperature: you could with the previous one. Lower temperature = longer drying time, but you also have the 'feeling' that you protected your clothing against too high temperatures. We actually opted for 'low' as standard… And that is not possible here (so). But I understood that the heat pump dryer dries at a lower temperature anyway, so no worries there. It has now been in use for 2 weeks, have also used the start delay (easy, dry laundry when waking up) because in terms of sound it can handle next to the bedroom without disturbing.
In summary: Recommended? If you are looking for a good heat pump dryer certainly. Also because Cool Blue will bring it, leave it working and take the old one… even on Sundays.
