Our first choice was a vented dryer, since the practical condenser but a corner formerly expensive. However, after a few price comparisons, we came across the Whirlpool AWZ 61225
Good customer reviews; Efficiency class B and a very favorable price incl. Delivery 'which was to be our new tumble dryer. After doing some research we found out that the unit is also offered identical by a well-known German brand manufacturer. Again, the same outstanding values; only numerous poorer customer ratings because of the high volume at which the unit operates.
========================================
How to order?
You could say I had my order almost not even sent as already called the shipper to settle with us a handover date.
Shipping & Delivery: TOP!
========================================
Installation & Commissioning
Unpacking 'switching' GO 'after removing the packaging, I had actually only the plug into the wall socket (and' IMPORTANT !! 'take the manual and warranty card from the bowl!) And you're able.
Commissioning: TOP & easy
========================================
Technique, results and consumption levels
The operation of the device is super easy; overflying the user manual (1 sheet) is sufficient to know the most important things. The laundry is super dried and comes almost finished cabinet from the drum; much must not be ironed.
The device seems to deal fairly careful with the laundry. So far, no damage.
Peaks in electricity consumption
So far, no drying process has consumed more than 2.7 kW / h; that is sensational.
(5kg spun at 1,400 rev / min .. including a complete charge towels). The manufacturer's specification is 3.38 kw / h.
We use the dryer only when there can be no dry laundry. These consumption figures are absolutely great for a low-cost device.
The device itself has to make 3 maintenance tasks:
- Empty the water container
- Empty the lint filter
-Clean the exchanger every 30 operations
Everything is easy to accomplish, and the drier logs even by signal when the work is due.
Function & Usage: TOP!
========================================
Criticism
In the recessions of the customer 'sister unit' there were frequent criticism for the loud operating noise. For this we can say one thing:
Loud the Gerät'und is true loud.
I appreciate that the dryer twice as loud as our old BOSCH-dryer is about to work. To solve this problem we simply close the door of our laundry room ..
In one bedroom apartment or in the kitchen, the safe nerves enormously; but we are power consumption, earnings and the favorable purchase price more important.
========================================
Conclusion
An inexpensive dryer with low energy consumption, which we were looking for and the Whirlpool AWZ 61225 also found. If now even has something '
JUST GREAT!
