Dunelm cuts price of heated airer to £76 in 20% off deal

Dunelm has cut the price of its Three-Tier Heated Airer to £76, down from £95, as part of a 20% off deal. The appliance, which costs 6p per hour to run, is designed to speed up indoor laundry drying, according to the retailer's online description.

The airer features a vertical three-tier design that folds away after use. It is made from sturdy aluminium, offers 20m of drying space, and can hold up to 15kg of washing.

Customer Reviews Highlight Benefits

Dozens of customers have left glowing reviews, with many saying the device has made their lives easier. One reviewer said: "Excellent, it dries clothes perfectly and doesn't take long. Great purchase." Another added: "Excellent dryer, it's going to save us pounds. Helps with clothes that you can't tumble dry too."

A third customer wrote: "This dryer with cover dried a whole wash load (which didn't have towels) in a few hours, very impressive." Another claimed: "I've had a heated dryer for many years and find this item a very needed item. Best thing ever invented."

Mixed Feedback Among Over 1,100 Customers

However, among more than 1,100 customers, some reported issues. One said: "Doesn't dry the clothes any more than air. Clothes take just as long to dry." Another commented: "Far too big to fold away neatly despite it being sold as easy to store." A third suggested: "Leaves clothes smelling musty. Flimsy and ineffective."

Despite these criticisms, the majority of reviews were positive. A five-star reviewer said: "This is a big item but fits a good amount of clothes on and definitely makes life easier by drying items much quicker." Another wrote: "It is a game changer when drying clothes inside that can't be tumble dried. It is so quick, easy to use and folds away in the cupboard, and even the cover is easy to put on and take off. I love it!"

One more customer noted: "Used this daily since we bought it. We were undecided to make this purchase, wary of effectiveness and running costs. This airer has been a great help at getting laundry dry in this extremely wet time. We use it to complete the final stage of drying before putting away. Needless to say, we have been very pleased with our purchase."

Alternatives and Accessories

Dunelm also recommends pairing the airer with the matching Three-Tier Cover, reduced from £16 to £12.80. The cover is said to create a warm, enclosed space that speeds up moisture evaporation.

Alternatives are available elsewhere, including the Pifco Electric Three-Tier Heated Airer from Home Bargains (£74.99) and the Argos Home 21m 3 Tier Heated Airer (£105). The Dunelm version remains on sale in stores and online.
