Third-party reviews

What we like about Hisense DH3S902BWCC

  • 16 drying programs cover most fabrics and needs.
  • Wi-Fi lets you control and monitor it from a phone.
  • A full load uses 1.92 kWh, and a part load uses 1.08 kWh.
  • Its 59.5 cm width suits a tight utility space.
  • Guided dry helps you choose settings without guesswork.
  • A reversible door suits either side of a room.

What we don't like about Hisense DH3S902BWCC

  • You cannot choose the drying temperature.
  • At 64 dB it is noticeable in a quiet kitchen.
  • The Wi-Fi features need a home network to work.
  • A full load uses more energy per cycle than a part load.

Verdict

Sixteen programs are the headline of the Hisense DH3S902BWCC, a 9 kg heat pump dryer for households that like the machine to make most of the choices. At 59.5 cm wide and 59 cm deep, it suits a tight utility space. Wi-Fi and smart pairing link it to your phone and a compatible washing machine, and the consumption statistics show how much energy each load used. Guided dry helps you pick a setting, and the allergen and baby programs add choice. A full load uses 1.92 kWh and a part load 1.08 kWh, so smaller loads use less. The trade-off is control. You cannot choose the drying temperature, and at 64 dB it is noticeable in a quiet kitchen. It suits a busy household that wants automatic help without fiddling with settings.
