Euromaid Condenser Dryer CD6KG Questions & Answers
Verified
Euromaid ECD700W- I purchased this yesterday from Appliances online. ( along with a new washing machine. ) I used it straight away for drying a load of sheets/ towels on a cotton setting. The mechanical odour emitted is overwhelming and permeated the sheets leaving a most unpleasant smell causing me to rewash the sheets. Has anyone else had this? Have I done something wrong? Will this smell go away?
At this stage, if this is the norm, I’m going to have to return the machine as I can’t have my clothes smelling like this. Pamela Mcdonagh
I’ve been using this dryer for a few years, never had any unpleasant smell.
Hi Pamela, I'm sorry to hear of your experience. I will reach out to you directly to get some additional information. Thanks
I’m having the same issue with my new Euromaid dryer. It arrived last week and it’s making all the washing smell horrible. Did you find a solution?
Hi Elizabeth, I'm sorry to hear of this. I will reach out to you directly to get some additional information. Thanks
Hi, we have connected the drain hose as per manual, but the tank still fills up and when it's full the machine beeps and tells you to empty the tank. Sophie

Wondering if this has a reverse action with the way it spins or if sheets end up in a bundle? Thanks!
Hi Jodi, Thank you for your question. Yes is has a reverse tumbling action to help reduce tangling. Thanks
I have just been informed that a condenser dryer doesn't work efficiently in the Brisbane area due to our humidity and that I could be waiting lots of hours for towels to dry in the dryer. Anyone in Brisbane have a problem with their condenser dryer?
I’ve never heard of that BUT if you’re worried then you should definitely buy a heat pump dryer instead of a condenser dryer. They’re more energy efficient and do not release humidity at all into your laundry room.
Thanks for the reply. I think I’ve been misinformed about the condenser dryer not being suitable in areas with humidity.
hi jen,
there is no issue with condenser dryers of ours in your area :)
Thanks. I was definitely misinformed - would you believe by a staff member who works for an appliance company!
Can anyone tell me if a Condenser Dryer will keep towels soft and fluffy? Since changing from a top loader to an AEG front loader machine, I have been disappointed with my towels, despite the fact I don't put too much detergent and I also do the towels on an extra rinse. They still dry with a harder feel. Wondering if to buy a Condenser Dryer to fix this problem.
I have had a condenser dryer for 5 years and my towels are really soft.
HI Jen,
it can depend on the make of the towels etc but as above we have had no complaints on towels not being soft :)
Thanks for much for answering my query. I buy good quality towels, so want to keep them soft n fluffy. You have been a big help. I'm going to buy a dryer to do the job.
Funny how we're all different , even our just won't die 20 year old Whirlpool vented dryer makes the towels soft and fluffy . And l hate it , sheeesh !!! Give me good old sun dried hard and crispy any day . Just sayin .
My dryer has suddenly stopped heating although it still spins. I have heard that there may be a re set button. Can anybody help? Thankyou Mark
Hi Mark,
sorry to hear, can you please call us on 1800 444 357 so we can trouble shoot with yourself.
thanks :)
Hi Mitch. I contacted this number and they were unable to troubleshoot over the phone and have suggested I contacted a technician as the warranty has expired. I will try this but it may be cheaper to buy a new dryer. However, I will check the Aust consumer law reasonable life for this dryer.
I have connected the drain hose, but the water tank still fills instead of any water flowing through the drain tube. Should the tank be removed or is there a switch somewhere?
external link check out pages 6 & 7 of the user manual - hope that helps :-)
Hi Tim,
The tank will still fill and the overflow will drain out of the tube.
Thanks!
Can anyone tell me how this dryer copes with sheets?
We have a Fischer & Paykel and all it does is roll them into a hot, wet ball.
A lot of reviews of other dryers say the same.
Nobody has mentioned it here, so I'm hopeful that it's ok......
Also, can a drain pipe be attached or does it have to be only the tank to catch the condensed water?
You can drain the water through a hose, but the machine has to be higher than the drain point ( i.e wall mounted ) Sheets do occasionally ball slightly - so just stop untangle and start again ( don't have to do it more than once in a cycle ).
Thank you sooo much for your reply, very much appreciated!
Would this dryer by able to attach on top of an LG 8kg front loader washing machine?
Hi Sue, You can find the dimensions of the CD6KG at this link: external link LG should be able to tell you if it will stack on top. You can purchase after market stacking kits from outlets like Bunnings.
Thank you :)
