Tumble dryer running costs - advice please

[ChelseaHarvey]

I have no idea but my tumble dryer is on about 2 x a day & i wouldnt say i notice a massive hike through the winter with it?? I even used it through the summer alot this year as well

As i still have a chavtastic electric key meter which the previous owners had put in and i cannot find a company willing to remove the flipping thing without charging me £89 for the privilege!!! I have just done an experiment. Have just dried a load in my washer dryer which is a modern AEG one. It cost 89p on the 'leccy meter I had everything else turned off bar a light in the utility room and a laptop charger. Therefore i scientifically conclude its not quite so expensive as i thought it was

Moominmaiden So in reading replies here sounds like we should def investigate buying one and I guess if we do find it's pricey to use we can just limit the usage but I am getting seriously fed up of our spare room permanently being set up as a laundry and this is the only way I can see to remedy that
