About this product
The Hoover HLE C8LG Condenser Tumble Dryer is the perfect choice for medium-sized families, blending style with everyday practicality. With an 8kg load capacity and 14 versatile programmes—including 4 intelligent Sensor Dry options and a Timed Drying function—it adapts effortlessly to your laundry needs. As a condenser model, steam is drawn into the condensing chamber, converted back into water, and collected in the easy-access bottom container. Efficient, stylish, and family-friendly, it's designed to make drying simpler and smarter.
The innovative Sensor Dry Technology gives you complete control over your laundry. Simply choose the level of dryness you need—Store Dry, Hang Dry, or Iron Dry—and the machine automatically switches off once your clothes are perfectly ready. It's the smarter way to care for your garments, saving you time, preventing over-drying, and keeping energy bills low by using only the power that's needed.
Smart Laundry, One Touch Away: This dryer features innovative One Touch Technology, giving you seamless connectivity with your Android smartphone. Simply tap to unlock extra programmes, monitor your drying cycles in real time, and run quick diagnostic checks—all from the convenience of your device.
Less creases, less effort: The Crease Free feature is the perfect solution for drying mixed fabric loads. By maintaining the ideal humidity, it helps minimise folds and wrinkles, making ironing quicker and easier. Smarter drying means smoother clothes and less hassle for you.

Cycles are too long
The drying cycles are so long! It is good that it stops if the filters need emptied but on average takes about 3 hours to dry towels which is a bit excessive
