A freestanding tumble dryer needs no housing, so it can go in a utility room, a garage or a spare corner of the kitchen. Before buying, measure the height, width and depth of the space and leave room for the door to open fully. Condenser dryers collect moisture in a water tank, so also plan how you will empty it.

Caple's freestanding dryer uses heat pump drying. Warm air takes moisture from the clothes, the water is condensed out, and the dry air is reused rather than vented outside. Heat pump dryers cost more to buy than conventional ones but less to run, and they don't need a vent hose. For more choice, see all Caple tumble dryers or browse all Caple products.
