    Different country, all our dryers and appliances run off mains power - 220v 10amp. The big issue is that they can’t be mounted upside down, so we can’t have one.

      That’s definitely a unique mounting circumstance, I’m very curious why specifically upside down mounting

        Because you put them above the washing machine, and flip them upside down so you can reach the buttons - its a space thing. They even have mounting brackets they come with and the front panel removes so you can turn it upright. I never did though, mine are upside down. But I don’t care.

        But yeah, means we can’t use heat pump or condensation dryers unless you have extra space.

          Is it like a top load washer or something? I have the melee heat pump dryer and the matching washing machine and they come with a stacking kit. I don’t need to flip it upside down because all the controls are on the front anyway rather than the top

          They are quite compact, as I am using them in an RV at the moment so I needed something capable of fitting through a 24 inch door and those were just fucking barely able to do it at 23 and a quarter inch

            Top load washer, front load dryer. Its a lack of floor space - just uses the empty space above the washing machine. Out of one, into the next, towels over the shoulder to go on the line.

            I never knew you could get stacking kits for heat pump dryers - just told that you can’t flip them so have to be on the floor
