Freestanding Condenser Dryer, 8kg drying load, White

Product Information

The heat-exchanger filter is located under the flip-down plinth at the front of the tumble dryer. This one only needs to be cleaned when the warning light turns on, although Sharp recommends that you clean it at least once a month. For running costs, I used the figures from the energy label figure, on which the Indesit YT M11 82 X UK is rated A++. On a full load, the Indesit YT M11 82 X UK averages 23p per cycle, which is incredibly competitive. Only the Samsung Series 9 DV90T8240SX is cheaper per cycle, although that tumble dryer is more expensive.

In terms of drying performance, the Indesit YT M11 82 X UK belongs to Class B. While not the highest rating available, it still provides efficient and effective drying results. To test the Indesit YT M11 82 X UK tumble dryer, I put it through my standard series of tests. First, I ran the Cupboard Dry cycle. This used just 0.527kWh of power, which is very economical. And, once complete, my clothes had lost only an extra 6g of weight through fibre loss. This puts the total water removal at 106.25% of the original dry weight, which shows that the Indesit YT M11 82 X UK treats clothes gently. This Indesit freestanding Tumble Dryer features: spacious 8kg capacity drum. Innovative technology ensuring extra silent performance. Once it is on, however, there are plenty of programmes to choose from. You’ll most likely use the Cotton and Synthetics programmes, both of which have Cupboard Dry and Iron Dry options – but, strangely, there’s no hanging dry option.For each drying cycle, the LCD panel displays the programme running time – although this will change as the sensor detects how dry your clothes actually are. You can set a delayed start time, adjust the drying level, and use the AntiCrease option, which will roll the drum occasionally at the end of a cycle to prevent clothes from settling and becoming creased before you can get to the machine to unload.

Providing effective drying action for up to 3kg of mixed fabrics, there's no need to separate items, just pop them in and go! Explore Comet and discover a constellation of products from washing machines and fridge freezers to air fryers, 4K TVs, laptops, consoles and more - it’s easy to find everything you need for your home in the Comet universe. Once you’ve selected a programme, the display will show the estimated time for it to run. However, a sensor will stop the dryer earlier to save energy. You can override some of a programme’s settings here, too, selecting a delay and the dryness level you want. Cupboard Dry is likely to be the best for most situations, but Extra Dry gets your clothes ready to wear, Hanging Dry is useful for items that go on hangers, and Iron Dry keeps clothes slightly damp to make it easier to press out creases. There are two filters to clean out. One lifts out of the front of the drum, and the second one is located at the front of the machine, behind the fold-down hatch. This bottom one only needs to be cleaned when the filter light turns on; the door filter should be cleaned at the end of each cycle.

Be careful, though: turning the dial past the Off position will turn the dryer off, meaning you’ll have to turn the dial again to turn the machine on, requiring you to wait through the startup lights again. I had a similar issue with the Sharp ES-NFH014CWC-EN washing machine. A simple on/off button would make Sharp’s appliances much easier to use.

To test the tumble dryer, I put it through my standard tests. First, I loaded it with washing fresh from a new cycle and put the Sharp KD-NHH9S7GW2-EN on the Cotton Cupboard Dry setting. Here, the machine used a total of 0.704kWh of power, which is a little higher than the majority of rival appliances. This is an A++ dryer, which uses 259kWh per year, assuming 160 full drying loads. This works out to a cost per cycle of 25p, which is super-competitive. To work out a level playing field, I use an average total amount of tumble drying per year, based on 6kg loads and 160 cycles per year: 960kg of drying per year. This dryer has an energy efficiency rating of A++, with an annual energy consumption of 234 kWh and is on the energy efficiency scale of A+++ to D. It has a drying class B, with a capacity of 8 kilograms and a cycle time of 194 minutes. The noise level of the dryer during operation is 65 dB, which is relatively low.

However, there’s an Xpress 45-minute programme for up to 1kg of washing, plus special programmes for Wool, Jeans, Synthetics, Shirts and more. In terms of energy efficiency, the Indesit YT M11 82 X UK has received an A++ rating, which places it on the higher end of the A+++ to D energy efficiency scale. Its annual energy consumption is 234 kWh, making it a relatively energy-efficient choice. Note that many of the cycles aren’t particularly fast: a full load on Eco Cotton takes up to 3hrs 20mins. That’s standard for a heat-pump tumble dryer; you sacrifice speed for power, which is a trade-off well worth making. Credit subject to status and affordability. Terms & Conditions Apply.
