So your Bosch Heat Pump Dryer won't dry your clothes properly? I've read many complaints on forums and Bosch Heat Pump Dryer reviews stating this very thing.
I must admit that it also happened to me when I first bought the dryer. You've just finished a load of drying and you stick your hand into the drum to grab your clothes and they're still damp.
Well, after testing many options, I think I've found the solution, so I'm here to share with you how I got around this.
I hope the video helps relieve you of the frustration of this problem too.
To me, the Bosch Heat Pump Dryer is actually a fantastic machine. Don't get me started on the filter implementation though. I may need to cover that in a different video, but the smell of the clothes after having used a quality fabric softener cannot be matched by an old-style condenser dryer.
Not to mention that there is no moisture or fluff being released into the laundry, it's been one of my favorite purchases.
I hope you enjoy the video and if so, please consider hitting that like button.

Thank goodness for this video. I was told by a Bosch engineer who came out that you'll never get clothes to dry as older driers did. This is because of the Grenfell Towers disaster where a domestic appliance started the fire that spread to the cladding. An engineer who came to install my new dishwasher told me that was rubbish I had been told about my tumble drier!

@lahewson 2 года назад

Thank you. I've been very frustrated with my clothes remaining damp. I've read the manual over and over but I'll take on your tips. It seems I've had a universal problem.

Cheers for this I have the Bosch serie 4 heatpump tumble dryer and was always using the “cupboard dry” mode with max drying level and towels and bed sheets were still damp after finishing. I would rerun the same cycle and would go on for another 5 minutes and then stop. This works way better!

@JustAwesomeCommercials 2 года назад

Cheers Daniel. Appreciate the support. This video shows you how to use Manual Mode which is a must when drying sheets, towels and doonas. Cheers. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TW6rYPQJ0kE.html

Thank you for this very helpful video, we recently bought the series 6 in Spain and I’d been pretty disappointed with its performance (especially with bedsheets) and as all the buttons and the manual are in Spanish I wasn’t sure how to fix the problem, I started watching another video which I cut short after the guy began pulling out screwdrivers (our machine is brand new!), yours was the second video on the list and I’m so happy as it was such a simple fix, sheets are dry and kids beds are made, thanks again!.

@paula3582 8 месяцев назад

With bed sheets, you have to take them out every hour and put them back in. They tend to roll in a ball. I also use dryer balls to stop my bed sheets from going into a ball.

@victorialouis2736 2 года назад

This dryer is the worst! Your video is very helpful however I would still tell anyone who is considering this model to steer clear! Thanks for your advice :)

@JustAwesomeCommercials 2 года назад

Thanks for the support Victoria. There is also a Heat Level Setting along the bottom row which makes a huge difference if you're having trouble getting your clothes dry. Give that a go if you haven't already. My biggest gripe with the machine is the fluff filter. Could that thing be designed any worse? You pull it out and fluff drops out on the floor and for some reason you have two separate filters, each as bad as the other. Why? My old condenser dryers filter was so much better. Appreciate the comment. Cheers.

@markgilder9990 2 года назад

I must admit, I’ve never really had a problem with it. It does take longer than a condensing drier but runs on a third of the electric. With heat pump technology you have to get into a different mind set and play the longer game👍🏻😀

@@markgilder9990 You're absolutely correct Mark. They are a different beast altogether compared to the condenser-style dryer. They're not perfect, but the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. Appreciate the comment. Cheers.

@@armenstaubach9276 That's great news Armen. It is a fantastic machine with its own little quirks, but overall, I'm happy with it myself. The biggest bonus with the heat pump dryer is not having condensation all over the laundry as well as fluff all over the cupboards. Thanks for the comment. Cheers.

We had the same problem. Fixed by using the ‘down/wear’ cycle!! Even though it says 3 hours, you can stop it after 90 mins or so and it’s dry!

@Olliebobalong 2 года назад

Having had this dryer (series 4 but still a heat pump Bosch) for a while, I much prefer it to really any other drier, simply because it looks after clothes so much better. I think the heat inside only gets up to 40-50c depending on the ambient temperature, where as conventional driers literally cook the clothes, shrink elastic bands and pill garments while stretching them out of shape. I’m happy to wait 2.5 hours for dry clothes if it has used 1/3 the energy and actually protecting my laundry lol

@JustAwesomeCommercials 2 года назад

I couldn't agree with you more Oliver. On a sunny day, l draw in more power through solar than the dryer actually uses, so basically it's free to run. Appreciate the comment. Cheers.

@markgilder9990 2 года назад

The fluff filter must be cleaned every time. The fine mesh will block and will not let moisture pass through the condenser. So moisture stays in the drum. I clean the filter under running water and rub the mesh between my finger to remove the build up of limescale from the filter. If you can blow through the mesh and feel,the air pass through, it’s clear. Got this tip from reading the comments on another you tube vid.

Thanks for the useful info . I just bought one from a lady who used it twice and said it never dried properly . Usual excellent Bosch quality , just a bit surprised that they did not pick up a problem with drying items properly or resolve the tangling issues during testing .... surely they actually test an appliance before it is let loose on the general public ?

@davetroy5706 11 месяцев назад

very useful video, thank you!! The modes are completely useless since they always leave clothes damp for me. I have to do another 30 mins or so of drying each time. The timer is also not useful as it's inaccurate (guessing that's due to the sensor, but find it rather redundant). I defaulted to using timed progr. warm

@lynettewilliamson4453 Год назад

I have just bought a Bosch series 4 heat pump dryer and I'm extremely dissatisfied with it. They have made it so energy efficient it is useless for drying clothes. I'm surprised such a reputable manufacturer would sell this as a high quality product and at such a high price. Something is wrong somewhere. I've used mine only 4 times and I want them to take it back and give me a refund. The dryer is useless.

@piccineko2299 Год назад

First of all, you have to turn off “Easy Iron” setting EVERY TIME! “Easy Iron” means keeps the laundry damp for ironing. Anyway, I usually use cotton settings for all my laundry, because none of other fancy settings dry completely. Frustrating! Thanks for posting though, I didn’t know it’s a common problem. I thought I was doing something wrong.

This was the first thing we did. We’ve tried everything from twisting sheets by hand(how ridiculous), but nothing works. And by the way, why have lesser settings. Who puts your clothes on to make them just damp? This machine wouldn’t even do my socks and undies with a small load on the highest setting for 8 hours!!!!!

@misskitten31 Год назад

I have the series 4 only use the time setting have it run for 3 hours still damp and have to run a further 3 hours

@danielchurchley140 2 года назад

If Bosch made dryers with a reverse tumble action, bedding wouldn’t roll itself up as bad and would dry better and quicker and therefore be more economical.

@JoJoKaat Месяц назад

Reading your comment I now understand where part of the problem is with this dryer.

@JoJoKaat Месяц назад

Thank you for posting this but I regret getting this machine 3 years ago. Where we live in NZ it’s possible to partially dry clothes over most of the cooler months, and normally I would use a dry to fully dry linen etc. HO dryers won’t manage to dry items that are damp/cold at all. Making the husband rather miffed that the only alternative is to use drying racks to get items properly dry so they don’t smell

@kiwinoybrothersworld Год назад

I also have the same dryer that's why am here. I have never used the cotton setting because of the length of time displayed and all the other settings don't dry our clothes. We have been using the last setting the timed program warm by setting it to 2 hrs and that's the only way it dry our clothes. Now we have a problem as the dryer stops/pauses and beeps every like 20 minutes showing the water sign even when the water tank is empty and the filter is clean. It has been like that for 2 months now so we just have to keep pushing the button to continue the cycle until the clothes are dried enough. If we don't, the dryer is continuesly on it won't off but does nothing. Anyone know how we can fix this without calling an expensive technician? TIA.

@andreirusu1987 9 месяцев назад

Hi, we have the same problem with a 8 series, stopping during a cycle and beeping, even though the water tank is empty. From what I noticed, it happens mostly during summer when it gets quite hot in the house and when We are drying our second cycle of clothes in a row. We still don’t have a solution for this..

@tomwilson5334 2 года назад

Why should you have to do this for every load when it has lots of programmes and a sensor ?

@JustAwesomeCommercials 2 года назад

Hey Tom. The sensors seem to have issues when it comes to detecting the moisture left in things like towels and bed sheets. When it comes to drying a load of clothes, it works just fine. As to why this happens, I don't know. For me, it was just a case of how to get around the problem.

but for ever drying target you have 3 drying level to adjast you know that right? so most of peoples will use mix with level 2 (the 2 suns) and everything came out dry you can chose 3 sun for the thick stuff! and but the way, cold timed program doesen't dry at all is just air. sir you miss understand the basic setting of your machine! so you dont have to switch from closeth to closeth plus but leave closeth and add 1 or 2 or 3 sun before to switch to closeth plus that is to much and even in closeth plus you can still regulate 3 sun

@g-zer0factory221 Год назад

I use the settings you pointed out there for 5 hrs!! None of the settings remotely work. The spin dry of the washing machine works better. Since day 1 this dryer has never worked properly. My old $200 dryer works better than this $1500 crap.

@lizw2853 Год назад

My old fashioned 25 year old dryer had 2 knobs warm or hot. A mechanical wheel allowed me to set the time. No stupid sensor, no endless settings! It was cheap and efficient and I only upgraded due to no parts available! Never any failures. The craziness of todays models is frustrating and unnecessary. Who thinks these overcomplicated ideas up?

@wozzgalaxy 2 года назад

My biggest problem with these is the design is absolutely horrendous for long term use. After about 2.5 years i noticed the drying time significantly increased (got to the point of taking 7hrs to dry a single load at the 3 yr mark).. i had cleaned all 3 filters every load.. i pulled it apart which is definitely not designed for average users (about 40 torx screws, removing the entire drum and horrible plastic clips over the evaporator).. the ENTIRE dryer was caked on the inside with lint. Literally every nook and cranny.. really lucky this didn't start a fire.. ive worked on many very OLD standard dryers and never found anywhere near this level of lint. Anyway it took a few hours to clean, now it's good as new.. but seriously this means the average user would have to fork out a few hundred dollars for a service tech after warranty expires, or buy a new dryer.. disgusting way to fleece customers out of money. Highly recommend avoiding bosch heat pump dryers to anyone considering unless you are happy to waste a few hours of ur time every couple of years!

@JustAwesomeCommercials 2 года назад

Hey Wozzgalaxy. Sorry to hear about the troubles you've had, but I'm not surprised. The design of the filters themselves are what drives me crazy. You pull the filters out to clean them and bits of fluff go everywhere. How this passed the design and testing stage, I'll never know. Appreciate the comment. Cheers.

@wozzgalaxy 2 года назад

@@JustAwesomeCommercials yeah i noticed that too! When i pulled it apart i also realised the drum is designed with small circular cutouts at the back which i think helps lint get spread through the machine! My experience was with a series 4. Painful for such an expensive dryer!

@VisualPrecisionLtd Год назад

I did the same, deconstructed right down to the condenser box. I cleaned it all out (very caked with lint) and the dryer started performing again. Trouble is, 12 months later, the performance has, yet again, tailed off significantly and I'm faced with either pulling it all apart again, or getting something rather better, including a reverse cycle. A very poor design from Bosch. (mine is a series 8)
