Anti Allergy
Keep your family safe with a special system that neutralises common allergens like dust mites, pet hair, and pollen. It uses controlled heat and movement to deep clean your garments without damaging the fibres.
Apparel Care
Keep your delicate fabrics looking and feeling excellent. This cycle uses a precise temperature management system and a gentle drum motion to look after wool and cashmere, fully approved by Woolmark.
Anti-crease
Reduce your time spent ironing with this handy function. The drum automatically rotates every 10 minutes for up to 6 hours after a cycle ends, keeping your clothes moving so deep creases cannot form.
Why you'll love it
Make light work of your laundry with the Hoover H-Dry 300 Lite HLE C9DG-80 Condenser Tumble Dryer. This reliable freestanding condenser tumble dryer features a large 9kg drum capacity, making it a great choice for busy families. You can easily dry hefty loads of washing in one go, saving you plenty of time and effort. Because it is a condenser model, there is no need for external venting. Steam is simply drawn into a condensing chamber and collected as water in an internal container, allowing you to position the appliance anywhere in your home.
This practical dryer fits seamlessly into your busy routine thanks to a helpful start delay option. You can set the cycle to begin at a time that suits you, helping you manage your daily schedule. The machine also features clever rapid options when you need fresh clothes in a hurry, an anti-odours cycle to quickly refresh outfits, and a pre-iron cycle that relaxes fabric fibres to make ironing less of a chore.
Please Note: Older manuals or reviews may mention connecting this machine to a smartphone app. This feature is no longer supported by Hoover, and this washer operates as a standard manual appliance without NFC smart connectivity.
