Why a Dryer is Essential in Canberra
Canberra winters are cold, crisp and often overcast. From June through August, outdoor drying can be impractical for days or weeks at a time. Frost, rain and low temperatures mean clothes left outside stay damp, often developing a musty smell. A dryer solves this completely and pays for itself quickly in convenience.
A quality second hand dryer from Appliance King costs a fraction of new retail price. Every dryer we sell has been tested by our technicians. Heating element, drum motor, belt, thermostat and lint trap. We only sell dryers that are working correctly.
Vented vs Condenser Dryers
Vented dryers push hot moist air out through a hose to an external vent or window. They're the most common type, generally more affordable to buy second hand and cheap to run. You need a way to vent to outside air, which most laundries already have.
Condenser dryers collect moisture in a tank you empty after each cycle. No external venting required. This makes them ideal for apartments, units or anywhere without external vent access. They cost a little more second hand but can be used anywhere without needing external ventilation.
What Capacity Do You Need?
Dryer capacity should ideally match your washing machine capacity. If you have a 7kg washer, a 7-8kg dryer is ideal so you can dry a full load in one cycle. Most households manage well with a 5-7kg dryer. Larger families with regular bed linen cycles benefit from 8-9kg.
