Hands-on test · Heat pump dryer
Verdict
The Hisense DHQE900UWDC suits families who want a 9 kg heat pump with humidity sensors, but its energy class D and 64 dB noise count against it.

Third-party reviews

What we like about Hisense DHQE900UWDC

  • Humidity sensors leave cotton ready to store, with no damp spots.
  • The 9 kg drum dries towels and sheets for four in one go.
  • The drum turns every 5 minutes after the cycle, so shirts stay uncrushed.
  • The allergy program and cool-air function refresh clothes already stored.
  • At 59.5 cm wide it fits a narrow gap more easily.
  • The fast function gives a 30 min cycle for small loads.

What we don't like about Hisense DHQE900UWDC

  • With only 2 programs, there is little choice for special fabrics.
  • A 100 L drum is small for bulky items like duvets.
  • Energy class D uses about 1.72 kWh per full cotton cycle in tests.
  • At 64 dB it hums steadily at one metre, so keep it out of the bedroom.
  • The 30 min fast cycle is limited to 4 kg, and thick jeans can stay damp at the seams.

Verdict

Big loads suit the Hisense DHQE900UWDC, whose 9 kg drum dries towels and sheets for a family of four in one go. Humidity sensors leave cotton ready to put away, with no damp spots between towels. The drum turns every 5 minutes after the cycle, so shirts stay uncrushed. The trade-offs are real. It has only 2 programs, and the 30 min fast cycle is limited to 4 kg, so thick jeans can stay damp at the seams. A full cotton cycle uses about 1.72 kWh in tests, which adds up if you run it daily. At 64 dB it hums steadily, so keep it away from the bedroom. It suits a family with a lot of bulky laundry that does not need many programs.
