Bosch WTW863S1GB

The Bosch WTW863S1GB condenser tumble dryer uses heat pump technology. This makes it more expensive to buy, but substantially reduces the amount of electricity it uses, saving you money in running costs. But is this Bosch tumble dryer really worth the...

The Bosch WTW863S1GB tumble dryer is a condenser dryer that uses a heat pump to achieve huge electricity savings, with an energy efficiency rating of A++. Be warned, however, that it takes much longer than normal to dry - typically 4 hours for a 7kg load.

We purchased on Black Friday without doing much research - a dryer full of features but fails to do the one job intended - dry clothes! Go in wet - come out wet and not even an alternate rotate anti tangle feature. They just knot up without drying.
