Best Asko Heat Pump Clothes Dryers

My experience with the Asko heat pump dryer has not been good. I’ve had it for a couple of years now and the entire time the pump has been an issue.… Read more

Asko have fixed it but never replaced the pump and it continues to be an issue now that the dryer is out of warranty. The machine stops multiple times through a drying cycle requiring the water container to be emptied but there’s actually no water in the container.

towels to take about 3.5 hours to dry. Ok, admittedly that's the trade-off for a very efficient heat-pump dryer, but the noise is unbearable. We purchased the dryer in 2022 and initially it was a bit loud, but tolerable. We adapted to the slow-drying cycle and regularly cleaned the filters as instructed. But now it rattles and cranks along like an old tractor. Given our experience with the call to Asko's service on the washing machine, we've decided to do nothing and just tolerate the aural abuse until the darn things wears out. Ok, we should have purchased a good old fashioned Electrolux or Fisher & Paykel tumble dryer without the heat pump, which would have delivered much quicker results, and certainly much quieter. We have a household of eight and have had to ban the dryer being used after 9pm because it's so loud and uncomfortable. It was meant to be a premium product, but our experience suggests otherwise. I don't usually write negative reviews, but in this instance the manufacturer for this appliance has tortured us long enough!
