You can buy a Top Seller with confidence, knowing they’re some of the most popular appliances in their category. If you’re on the hunt for a new clothes dryer, this article has the lowdown on the best clothes dryers in Australia – tried-and-tested faves that’ll make you wish every day was laundry day!
What Makes A Top-Selling Dryer?
So how does a clothes dryer grab that top spot? “Your dream dryer will need to be a great fit all round – from the physical space it’ll live in to the size of your laundry loads,” says Peter Simic, The Good Guys Buyer – Refrigeration and Laundry. “More and more, customers are looking to heat pump dryers for optimal energy efficiency for lower bills. If you have a smaller budget and a small laundry, a compact vented dryer might be the perfect pick for your home. If venting isn’t an option, a condenser dryer can be installed pretty much anywhere in the home.
“When it comes to forward-thinking features to make your life easier, look out for supersized drums for bumper loads and shorter dry times; ultra-efficient heat pump tech that’s kind to clothes, the environment and your power bills; and auto-dry tech that monitors temperatures and moisture, and adjusts drying times accordingly.”
What Are The Best Heat Pump Dryers?
Heat pump dryers use the same technology as reverse cycle air conditioners – using lower temperatures to dry fabrics quickly and carefully. Well-known brands such as Westinghouse, Bosch and LG all make powerhouse dryers that garner rave customer reviews for being gentle on laundry and avoiding the dreaded clothes shrinkage. Miele keeps big families happy with dryers that can even handle a king-size doona. Hisense’s Power Dry 30 is the perfect tumble dryer for small loads and busy people, saving time and money with a speedy half-hour of power.

What Are The Best Washer-Dryer Combos?
For homes where space is at a premium, a washer dryer combo might be the ideal choice. With the convenience of continuous wash-dry cycles, appliances from Haier, Chiq and Fisher & Paykel all delight customers looking for a small-but-perfectly-formed laundry set-up. Customers with vertical space to burn go wild for LG’s range of WashTowers, which combine the drum capacity of two separate appliances with the floor space of one.
“I'm so in love with my Haier heat pump dryer – there are so many fancy features … It has an 8-star energy rating which just blows my mind. I could honestly rave about this all day.”
What Are The Features To Look Out For In The Best Dryers?
When it comes to looking for a dryer, it’s important to make the right choice to suit your home. This means choosing a capacity that suits your family’s needs - keep in mind how often you use your dryer, as this will affect the load size.
If you have a specific aesthetic in mind for your laundry, choosing the right style can also be an important decision. Whether you want to go for a dark modern aesthetic or the classic white look, we can help you find the perfect dryer for your home.
