    A stackable heat pump dryer? Well I'll be.

    • tp0 on 05/07/2022 - 21:37
      +6

      They're all stackable within the same brand with the supplied bracket kits. You just can't wall mount them.

      • lgacb08 on 05/07/2022 - 21:54
        +10

        doesn't need to be same brand, as long as it fits the top of your front loader nothing will happen, dryer spin much slower and won't vibrate or move around like front loader.

        • Davesday on 05/07/2022 - 22:02

          Is it safe to presume most front loaders will be heavier than the heat pump dryer (e.g. getting a 8kg dryer to stack on top of a 10kg washer)? Meaning it is safe to stack them on any brand front loaders as long as front loader is bigger than the dryer.

          • lgacb08 on 06/07/2022 - 09:01
            +2

            @Davesday: Almost always, front loader has bunches of concrete inside as counter weight to hold the drum. Weight difference between a 6kg and 10kg front loader isn't much.

        • Ryanek on 05/07/2022 - 22:04
          +8

          No, you need a stacking kit otherwise it's very dangerous. You say it doesn't spin as much but what if you run both at the same time.

            @Ryanek: I’ve run a Bosch FL and an Esatto heat pump on top simultaneously for over a year. No stacking kit, no issues.

            @Ryanek: I have Beko heat pump dryer on top of my bosch washer for 2 years, have a anti-vibrate matt (called something like that) in between that bought at Harvery Norman. As long as the top of the washer is bigger than the legs of the dryer, i think it's fine. My heat pump dryer haven't move a mm as I check sometimes.

            • Davesday on 06/07/2022 - 12:07

              @stevelo: This. Appliance Online actually sells the anti-vibration mat. I think it also keeps the heat pump dryer in position.

              • Thy-San on 15/07/2022 - 09:14

                @Davesday: I had LG dryer on top of samsung combo for a very long time with the same anti slip matt

    Anyone know if Appliances Online matched the price with the equivalent Esatto heat pump dryer when aldi had these last year? Not sure I'm up for the battle / stock lottery at aldi.

    • nikoris on 05/07/2022 - 22:53

        It's well known that the 7kg is a rebadged Esatto sold by Appliances Online. Not sure on this 8kg model being sold in 2 weeks, maybe a new model?

        • nikoris on 05/07/2022 - 23:10
          +3

          I mean, it's common sense they wont price match a product from a different company, even if it's only the sticker that's different

            @nikoris: That’s not true. Bunnings lowered ozito prices to match mitre 10s similar product - happens more than you think.

              @dammit: Lowering prices to stay competitive in the market is totally different to price matching by customer's request a similar product

                +10

                @nikoris: I mean die on whatever semantic hill floats your goat. But it’s not an uncommon for people to describe the practice of price reductions in response to a competitor brand sale as price matching.

                Appliances Online have adjusted their prices to reflect competitor product sales many times in the past. And chatting about 18v battery tools to staff at bunnings, they’ve referred to price matching Ozito to Aldi and Miter 10 brands when I’ve talked to them in the past, and it’s how many people refer to the practice in OzBargain threads.

                Price match guarantees probably won’t apply, and non commission sales staff probably won’t be able to on the spot price match across brands. But asking if somewhere like Appliances Online will price match if you ask seems like a sensible question to me.

      • herbo on 05/07/2022 - 23:18
        +2

        Could have framed the question better then. I mean match as in what bunnings does with ozito power tools whenever aldi has similar. The Esatto dryers have been around $600 previously.

        You do realise that the "warranty" advertised by retailers is in addition to the statutory warranty, right? No reasonable person would expect a major appliance like this to last less than 5 years. 7-10 even.

      I bought the Esatto Heat Pump dryer from Appliances Online and it lasted just over 2 years despite not being a heavy dryer user. But no appliance repair tradies want to service Esatto where I live on the Gold Coast. So I can't even pay to get it fixed. Have been battling both Appliance Online and the distributer Residentia for MONTHS. They are both extremely unhelpful if their crappy, cheap imports fail. They say it is out of warranty so too bad, so sad. I expected more from Appliances Online. I have certainly learnt a lesson.

        The energy consumption/year was higher than the washing machine, but I thought dryers would be less energy efficient.

        Is that a 7 out of 10 energy rating? Always thought the ratings were out of 5 or 6 (forgot which).

    • stevelo on 05/07/2022 - 23:31

      Heat pump dryer consume around 30%-50% energy vs vented dryer. Eg, heat pump $0.70-$0.90 per circle, vented dryer $1.80-$2.20 per circle (at $0.30/kwh).
      Save around $0.80 by wind dry compare to heat pump everytime.

          I will never go back to vented dryer, the main reason is that vented dryer humid my house and dirty my laundry, energy saving is just another big bonus. Condenser dryer is quite expensive as well, I will just pay a bit more for heat pump?

      • AlienC on 06/07/2022 - 02:24

        My question is can I put this in another room and not just the laundry room. I have space in a lounge area but it is carpeted but I can run a hose out the window but the window will be higher than the dryer.

        Other option is to run it in an empty shower near the washing machine and it will just drain off there into the unused shower.

        Yeah my main question is it safe to use on carpet floors.

        • ntebis on 06/07/2022 - 07:59

          Imo, I would just empty the container for carpets, but from memory reading the instructions for my Beko, the hose can't be too high

            @ntebis: Ah damn so looks like I have to find a floor drain to drain it out.

          It gets bit humid around the dryer. So, I am not sure it is a good idea to put it in the lounge room or living room. Maybe you can test it one time by putting it in the lounge room and using the water tank.

          • AlienC on 06/07/2022 - 18:51

            @Sub: Oh if it creates a lot of humidity then yeah I can see the carpet getting mould and what not so waterproof surfaces and flooring only.

        • stevelo on 06/07/2022 - 17:12

          I will just empty the tank manually if you put it on carpet. My washer is 1200rpm, drying 7kg cloth will fill the water tank to around 40%.

          • AlienC on 06/07/2022 - 18:53

            @stevelo: Knowing me I would probably forget or be too tired and come back to water overflowing everywhere so then that counts out carpet and puts it to only waterproof surfaces and flooring so maybe one of the unused showers downstairs will make a good fit just gotta put a sign not to take a shower with the dryer lol

              @AlienC: I don’t think it’s a good idea put dryer on carpet. But also my Beko heat pump dryer will stop automatically if the water tank is full, I have to empty the water before it can be start again. I don’t know if other heat pump dryer will do the same though.

                @stevelo: Oh that's good. What model or name is your heat pump dryer and would you recommend it or choose another dryer if you could change your mind and get another right now.

                Yeah that's a really good feature on the auto stop function when the water tank is full.

                Why do you think it is not a good idea to run a dryer on carpet is it because of the water spill potential or fire hazard or stability or other important reason?
