LookInto Winner in Best tumble dryers UK 2026, ranked by what one load costs

The cheapest heat pump dryer we could price from a fiche, sold by Amazon on 6 October 2026. A full 8kg load costs 54.7p at the October cap and a half load 30.5p, which is 6.8p a kilo. That is the highest per kilo figure of the four heat pumps, and it is still less than half of the best condenser or vented machine.

The catch: a full load takes 3 hours 40 minutes on the fiche's standard cotton programme, against 2 hours 50 minutes for the Candy vented model.

Look Into researches products from published sources: makers’ pages, retailer listings and regulators. We have not handled or tested these products, and a blank field means we have not recorded that figure yet, not that the product lacks the feature. Awards are Look Into editorial picks, not Amazon or third-party awards. As an Amazon Associate, Look Into earns from qualifying purchases; commission never decides a ranking.
