What we like about Haier HD80-D357GU1-UK X5

  • Low energy use, at 0.8 kWh on a part load.
  • A 126 L drum has room for duvets and big towels.
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth control from a phone.
  • 15 programs, including hygiene and gentle drying.
  • Inverter motor for efficient running.
  • 194 kWh a year for an A++ rated dryer.

What we don't like about Haier HD80-D357GU1-UK X5

  • The delayed start can be set no more than 12 h ahead.
  • At 64 dB it is clearly audible in the house.
  • At 43.5 kg it is hard to shift alone.
  • As a self-standing unit, it cannot be built under a worktop.

Verdict

Low running cost is the first thing to notice about the Haier HD80-D357GU1-UK X5, a premium heat pump dryer for a household that dries most days. A full 8 kg load uses 1.45 kWh, and a part load uses 0.8 kWh, which adds up to 194 kWh a year. The drum holds 126 L, so duvets and big towels have room to tumble. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth let you check or start a cycle from your phone. The main limit is the delayed start, which can be set no more than 12 h ahead. At 64 dB it is clearly audible in a quiet kitchen, and at 43.5 kg it is not a dryer to shift around alone. It suits a busy home where the dryer runs every day and phone control matters.
