At a glance
The Westinghouse 8kg Heat Pump Dryer is a practical, energy-saving dryer for medium to large households needing flexible care for everyday clothes, towels and bedding. It stands out for its 7 star energy rating, Sensor Dry control and fabric-friendly program selection. A fair limitation is that it is a straightforward freestanding model without the advanced smart connectivity or premium specialist cycles found on higher-end dryers.

Things to consider
It covers everyday drying well, but shoppers wanting smart app control, ultra-quiet performance, or more specialised premium fabric programs may prefer a higher-end model.
Energy efficiency score
9/10 - Excellent efficiency for the category with a 7 star energy rating and estimated annual energy consumption of 156kWh.
Family laundry suitability
8.5/10 - Well suited to medium to large households thanks to its 8kg capacity and versatile everyday programs.
Allergy suitability
Moderate - Suitable for thorough everyday drying, but it does not list a dedicated allergy or sanitise program.
Noise level vs category
7/10 - At 66 dB, it is reasonably quiet for a heat pump dryer, though not among the quietest premium models.
Ease of use rating
8/10 - Straightforward to use with Sensor Dry, multiple fabric programs, delay start and anti-crease support.
Key benefits
- 8kg Capacity: Handles regular family-sized loads, including everyday clothing, towels and bedding.
- Heat Pump Drying System: Dries clothes gently while keeping energy use low, supported by a 7 star energy rating and estimated annual energy consumption of 156kWh.
- 13 Drying Programs: Gives you flexible settings for cotton, synthetics, wool and delicates so loads can be matched to fabric type.
- Sensor Dry Technology: Monitors moisture levels and stops the cycle when clothes are dry to help avoid over-drying.
- Reverse Tumbling Action: Helps reduce tangling so larger loads are easier to unload and sort.
- Extra Anti-Crease Option: Helps minimise wrinkles if you cannot unload the dryer straight away.
- Auto Cool Down: Finishes with cooler clothes that are more comfortable to handle at the end of the cycle.
- Stackable Design: Gives you more installation flexibility in smaller laundries when used with a compatible stacking kit.
Q: Does this Westinghouse heat pump dryer need an external vent?
A: No. WDH804N7WA uses a heat pump condenser system, so it does not need a wall vent or duct like a vented dryer. That suits enclosed laundries better, though a little room airflow is still sensible for day to day use.
Q: Will the stack kit come with the Westinghouse WDH804N7WA?
A: No. WDH804N7WA can be stacked, but the stacking kit is not included in the box. If stacked installation matters for your laundry, allow for the extra kit and make sure the washer and dryer are a compatible pairing.
Q: How much electricity does the WDH804N7WA use each year?
A: Westinghouse WDH804N7WA has a 7 star energy rating with estimated annual energy consumption of 156kWh. A higher star rating generally means lower running costs than other 8kg dryers with a lower rating, especially for frequent use.
Q: Is this dryer quiet enough for apartment or internal laundries?
A: Yes. Westinghouse WDH804N7WA is listed at 66 dB, which is reasonable for a heat pump dryer in a home laundry. It is not silent, so the sound is still worth considering if the laundry sits close to living or sleeping areas.
Q: Why can heat pump drying take longer on this model?
A: Heat pump drying uses gentler, lower-heat drying than older high-heat styles, so cycles can take longer on some loads. The trade-off is better fabric care and lower energy use, with Sensor Dry helping stop the cycle when clothes are ready.
Q: Does the Westinghouse 8kg dryer have steam or hygiene cycles?
A: No. WDH804N7WA focuses on core fabric programs such as cotton, synthetics, wool and delicates, plus Sensor Dry and anti-crease support. It is not the right fit if steam refresh, app control or a dedicated hygiene cycle are must-haves.
