Electrolux EDH903BEWA

dryer needs a yearly strip down to keep working – It started taking hours and hours to dry a load, as in 8+ hours. Have owned for only 14 months, had a technician come out under warranty and reveal that the condenser is clogged with lint that makes it past the filter. This is not covered under warranty, costs about $300-$500 for them to fix as it involves a complete strip down and clean and will… Read more

apparently need to be done every year or so at the volume we use the dryer (family and approx one load a day). Absolutely rubbish design and I will never be purchasing an Electrolux dryer again, or any heat pump dryer that doesn't have a removable condenser

Don't buy, and honestly I will avoid the brand going forward – Purchased in November 2020, seal fell off mid 2023 and has just started leaking water everywhere apropos of nothing. Since purchase it has taken forever to dry anything. Frustrating to replace less than 4 years after purchase when it was so expensive in the first place! Show details

Do NOT buy! – Dryer had a major failure after just 4 years of use - the compressor completely gave out. Only my husband and I use the dryer, and only once or twice each week. Absolutely pathetic considering the amount we paid for this. Show details

Brilliant dryer – We've had this dryer for around 8 months now and it's been great. It does really well drying things out completely. It doesn't make much noise or produce much heat. Only thing I'd suggest to the manufacturer would be having a removable filter on the bottom air intake as it builds up dust there and it's difficult to clean. A filter like a… Read more

demcifilter (https://www.demcifilter.com/products) put on top of it would make it so much easier to keep clean. Other than that, can't fault the machine

Works a treat! Can’t live without it – Works a treat! Can’t live without it. Family of 4 so washing is consistent. Plenty of drying options and also 8 star energy rating. Easy to use and energy efficient Show details

It so helpful and high quality,itsbeen working too many hours per day without any defect. Multiple functions and options – All type of clothes I am putting in and it's perfect It's easy to work and so satisfied with function and options ,It submitt great service it doesn't affect t on the clothes quality Show details

No more hanging out washing! – Dries everything gently including pillows not meant for tumble drying. Towels that were always stiff and crinkly even with fabric softener are now so soft. It’s easy to maintain and simple to use. Show details

wow great appliance – I am a little slow in embracing what i perceive to be gimmicky or too much technology. When my vented finally went after 20 odd years, i went straight into looking at another vented. Hubby said maybe try look at something else as you always complain about the moisture and the fluff. I baulked at the cost of these, but i am now officially… Read more

converted. Quiet, dries well, gentler on clothes, easy to use ( i do not use wifi feature or app), holds a fair bit and i love i can dry my shoes in it. I have recommended this model to my friends and family and i say, yes it is expensive but you save in electricity bills big time. Mine runs daily and i do not see it on my bill. Family of 3 humans and 3 furkids and we are still under $500 a quarter (we have 1 tele in the home, one computer and do not use aircon). great machine

First Condenser Dryer – I bought this dryer for $1250 at a local store, I had them price match an online retailer. I did buy an instore aftermarket warranty ontop. When opening the dryer I found a pamphlet for an actual electrolux after market warranty. Same price but direct through the manufacturer, I would have preffered this option. Something for prospective buyers to… Read more

be aware of. I wanted a dryer for my young family because we have been caught out with some bad weather not being able to dry clothes outside for several days. I chose this dryer because it had the best reviews and so far it has been great. Everything comes out perfectly dry, including my thick work socks and everything feels so much better then having been hung on a clothes line in the sun. The on/off button seems a bit tacky when you compare it to the touch start button. Very happy with purchase.

Good dryer – I finally got rid of the old Bosch dryer that had the clogging issue (flap/reservoir under the condensation unit). What I was looking for: a heat pump dryer, reliable (a good brand), made in Europe, can reverse tumble, not too expensive. I compared for months, read reviews and always reverted back to this Electrolux. It's great. With the Bosch… Read more ·  1

I always had the problem with bedlinen tumbling into a ball.. never liked that. I don't have that problem with this one. Drying time is ok, if you don't overfill it, it's quite fast. There are some things that I would change or make questions how long it will last:

- The door is made of plastic, same with the latch... we will see how it will hold up over time - One annoying thing is that the dryness level is default to cupboard-dry (half-full sun symbol). If you select extra dry (the full sun symbol) that setting will remain for the next load, but if you change let's say from Mixed to Cotton, it defaults back to cupboard-dry (which we then forget to change to extra dry). Cupboard dry is too wet for our taste. You can "save" one program with settings on the Favourite setting, but we often forget to use that later as well. - Now and then smaller items are getting caught between the filter and door on the left side (like kids socks etc) and just sit there during the cycle... doesn't get damaged or so, just doesn't mix anymore with the rest of the clothes. No big issue. - App not really useful, tbh.

Otherwise we are happy with the dryer so far.

Absolute excellence reverse tumble EDH903BEWA electrolux 9kg heat pump dryer – Loving this electrolux 9kg heat pump dryer and it exceeds my expectations in every way. I brought it because of previous reviews and I’m not disappointed. I researched for 6 months. My understanding is it is the only one with reverse tumble and none of our sheets or towels have got caught up in balls. Yet it is significantly cheaper (I wanted… Read more

the best not the cheapest but got both) Comes out dry and soft. I expected moisture as is the science of heat pump dryers and then you pull them out and they are dry in minutes, but it hasn’t been moist at all. Towels and sheets are soft and dry and we trust it with delicate fabrics. Our laundry has no ventilation and thus a heat pump dryer was our only viable option. Looks great, has a cute light on the inside which is an unexpected treat, and plays a sweet melody at the end. lint tray is oh so easy to clean and the water reservoir is easy to empty. I hate housework and want items to work for me not the other way around and this dryer does just that. We set it up with the hose that comes with it to drain into the laundry trough and now I never have to empty the reservoir, but is simple to do if you don’t want to set it up to drain in the trough. Only had it 2 weeks and I’m in love. Believing the other good reviews was worthwhile as this product is worth every penny. Simple and efficient to use. It is not whisper quiet, but not loud either. louder than my 42decibel dishwasher but quieter than my ducted heating. I don’t know how quiet they should be but I like the soft hum. Haven’t used the App, I am X gen and why make things complicated Appliances online delivery was awesome, i was in a meeting and they followed the instructions on my note. Even took the rubbish away. I’m on a high with this product and will now consider electrolux in future purchases

washing machine an heat pump dryer – Just bought a Electrolux washing machine an a heat pump dryer an they are amazing so quiet can do washing at night when everyone is sleeping. also cant wait to see my electricity bill going to be so much lower more money in my pocket. Thanks ELECTROLUX :) Show details

Pretty good overall – So far, so good. Dries clothes without shrinkage or any apparent damage, and sheets come out without wet spots thanks to the reverse tumble feature - this brand seems to have the only heat pump driers that have this! The drier seems to adjust the timer, reducing the time if the clothes are drier or the load is smaller, which is great to see. Also… Read more

looks great and fits well on top of my LG front loader.

Any minor issues I might be having are likely as I haven't taken the time to fiddle with the settings or am not used to the way it dries. There are times the clothes feel very, very slightly damp, but I'm thinking I might need to adjust the water hardness. I'd also like to have more control in the sense of having a program that I can throw in damp clothes off the line, but I haven't set up the app yet, so I'm guessing (based on previous reviews) this might give this option.

All in all, I'm pretty happy with my purchase and would recommend it.

So happy! – So after much researching I went ahead and purchased through AO. Amazing. I couldn’t be happier. I replaced a 21 year old vented Hoover workhorse that sounded like a jet engine was landing in my laundry and left trails of dust in its wake so yes everything would have beeen an improvement. I wanted one with an extra dry function and also an… Read more

override timer so I could throw stuff in for 15 minutes and this has both. My towels are dry and fluffy and not damaged. Yes if I add in in too many sheets they do come out wrinkled but that is more me being impatient than the machine. Using the functions as instructed means the sheets come out fine but I don’t have time for that so that would be the only downside. I’m saying that it works for me and I have no issues.

I’m still getting across the functions but the cotton, mixed, bedding and delicate work fine and no shrinkage. Yes it about 2 hours to dry but that doesn’t phase me as that’s how long my old dryer took too. Given it’s pretty quiet I throw it on and don’t give it another through until my phone reminds me and as I had to open all doors and windows this is a definite upgrade. The timer functions means I can throw in damp items for about 30 minutes and it works a treat.

The water is reused and the filter is super easy to clean.

The measurements are a bit off and AO told us it wouldn’t fit on my current AEG washer but it does easily and no issue with stability etc. I’m so happy with this and hope to still be in a few years time.

Can't live without it – I have to dry everything for about 8 months of the year as I live bordering a rainforest. I've had the machine for about a year now and I absolutely love everything about it. I've tried all settings and everything comes out perfectly dry to my chosen settings. The cupboard dry feature is excellent and super handy to get the clothes out and put… Read more

them away with very little wrinkles. I haven't quite figured out the drying rack yet, tried once and failed and haven't needed to try it again. It's great drying wool, no issues at all. The filter is amazing. It catches everything, even sand from kids pockets. It's super easy to use. I love that I can take out the water waste and reuse it to water the plants. The time delay is super handy to dry at off peak. I find it really quiet to all other dryers I've previously used. It's a big machine and make sure to measure your laundry area prior to purchasing to ensure it fits. Edit 2 years later: still no issues whatsoever, still going strong and working perfectly.

Resolved all concerns about heat pump dryers – I did months of research on heat pump dryers before finally buying one - was very nervous about the numerous reviews on leaving clothes damp, etc, but with the way our laundry room is, heat pump was simply the best option for us. Waited till EOFY sales, got it at a great price (had Harvey Norman price match Appliances Online). After all of that… Read more

stress, I cannot believe how excellent this dryer is. It has really good reverse tumble (goes for long enough to loosen any balled laundry), and the sensors seem to work perfectly - the loads are definitely dry. I've washed loads on a few programmes, always using "cupboard dry," which is the middle option (not even choosing "extra dry") - the only (very) slightly damp load I've had is when I tried the "energy saver" program, but no issues on the other programs. Regardless, it was super easy to just add another 10 minutes on at the end that one time. Emptying the water drawer was easy, and once I had a chance to hook the hose up to the sink, that process was easy as well. I am blown away by the filter (which is very easy to access). It's not the easiest to clean because there are multiple filters in it (it sort of opens like a book, with 2 filters inside, 2 as the 'covers', so 4 total) so there are more edges and such than a normal one layer filter, but the amount of stuff - lint, sand, dust, dog hair, really anything - it catches makes it worth the extra 30 seconds. Basically once I've pulled the lint off each 'page' like a normal filter, I just shake it a bit above the bin and everything else comes out. As to noise - we can hear it, but its definitely quieter than our previous cheapo vented dryer, and isn't bothersome. I wouldn't say its entirely silent...but I'm not sure how quiet a dryer can ever get? The one thing is, the reverse tumble (which I love) means the noise isn't just one droning white noise, it changes from time to time when it reverses direction. So while it's quieter, you might notice it a bit the first few times you use it. I did try the quiet setting, not sure it made a difference. I suppose if I have one concern it's that the door feels a bit flimsy - it's plastic and a bit difficult to open, so a bit nervous I might break it at some point? But I think that's being nitpicky, to be honest. I do love that you can reverse the door opening for however works best for your laundry.

I don't often leave reviews, but considering how much I stressed over choosing a heat pump dryer, I thought this review might help people. It's admittedly early days (had it less than a week, so not tons of laundry yet), but if I have any problems I'll come back and update this. Otherwise, assume its ticking along as magically as ever!
