Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

It doesn’t have to be me making the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

I have a bosche condenser we do not like it our clothing comes out damp still.

Yeah they're not very good and take an age to run. I looked at heat pump options when we got a dryer and the cost savings didn't stack up against the extra purchase cost unless you were running multiple loads a day through it. We only use ours in winter so not worth it.

Is it this one? https://www.harveynorman.co.nz/whiteware/laundry/clothes-dryers/bosch-8kg-heat-pump-clothes-dryer.html

In the consumer.org.nz reviews, they have 22 dryers ranked and that's the only Bosche one. It came second to last overall. They rank based on multiple things but their drying performance score was 56 compared to 83 for the highest ranked model (there was one that got 85 for drying but was further down the ranks because of other scores).

That looks like a newer version of ours, we have had it six years

Sounds like they haven't got any better at drying...
