Is the Samsung Series 6 DV90T6240LN worth it?
Yes — if you dry a lot and want low bills.
A 9 kg heat pump rated A+++, using 194 kWh a year, so it costs very little per load, and in testing it got clothes properly dry. It's quiet, and you can watch it from the SmartThings app. The catch: the drum turns one way only, so big bedding can roll into a ball and stay damp in the middle.

- A+++: about 194 kWh a year

What owners say
Owners love how quiet and cheap to run it is. The unhappy few mostly found cycles slow and bedding tangled.
Good to know
- Cycles are long, like all heat pump dryers, and some loads need a second run.
- The drum doesn't reverse, so duvets and sheets can roll up and stay damp.
- The heat exchanger is fiddly to clean, and a few owners noticed a damp smell when it wasn't.
