Monsoon season means laundry that will not dry on the bamboo pole. We priced seven heat pump dryers on 30 October at the brands' own stores and COURTS, and checked every model against NEA's energy label register: an Electrolux 8kg is $799, a Beko uses the least power of any 8kg here, and a Samsung 9kg costs about $57 a year to run.
Three weeks of grey skies and the towels still smell damp. A heat pump dryer fixes that for less than you think.
> Quick view: best value is the Electrolux 8kg at $799 (to 31 Dec); most heat pump dryers run $899-$1,799. Only 5-tick models take the Climate Voucher, and only in store.

Beko is the quiet bargain of this list: $100 more than the Electrolux, but it uses less power than any other 8kg dryer here. PRICE: the 8kg heat pump B3T4824DW is $899 at COURTS (RRP $1,388).

Over five years that gap is roughly the $100 price difference.COURTS CODES: online, 50LDA takes $50 off every $500 on large appliances; it does not combine with COURTS' sitewide discounts or limited sets, so check the code applies at checkout.BEST FOR: anyone who runs the dryer most days and wants the lowest bill.

The local brand undercuts the big names on capacity. PRICE: the 9kg 5-tick heat pump EDY8900E is $999 in white and $1,099 in gun metal on EuropAce's own store (listed at $1,499). The 8kg EDY 8801Y is $859 (was $1,199).RUNNING COST: NEA lists the 9kg at 5 ticks and 363kWh a year (about $98) and the 8kg at 312kWh, so these cost a little more to run than the Beko or Samsung.SMALL SPACES: the Moon Series 5kg compact dryer (EDY3501ED) is $389. It plugs in, can sit on a counter or be wall-mounted, and needs no stacking kit, but it is a 2-tick vented dryer using 418kWh a year, so it does not qualify for the Climate Voucher.THE DEAL: EuropAce's Ace of Home promotion gives gifts worth up to $1,357 when you buy any 2 items worth $400 or more, until 31 Dec 2026, and shipping is free with no minimum spend.BEST FOR: families who want a 9kg drum under $1,000, or renters who only have room for a compact unit.

Prices and promotions were read on 30 October 2026 from Electrolux Singapore's dryer, promotions and product pages, Samsung Singapore's dryer pages, EuropAce's online store, Sharp Singapore's store, and COURTS' dryer listings, product pages and online promotion terms. Tick ratings and annual kWh come from NEA's Energy Labelling Scheme product register for clothes dryers, matched by exact model code. LG sells no dryers on its Singapore store, and Bosch's own store would not load, so Bosch is priced at COURTS. Prices include GST and change often, so check the link before you buy.
For most homes, a 5-tick heat pump dryer. On 30 October 2026 the best value was the Electrolux UltimateCare 300 8kg (EDH804H3WB) at $799 on Electrolux's store with a free stacking kit, the most efficient was the Samsung 9kg DV90T6240LE at $1,499 (212kWh a year), and the cheapest 9kg was EuropAce's EDY8900E at $999.
Yes, if the dryer is rated 5 ticks. Clothes dryers became eligible on 15 April 2026. Vouchers must be scanned at a participating retailer's physical store, not online, and are valid until 31 December 2027. Six of our seven picks are confirmed 5 ticks on NEA's register; we could not find the Hisense DH105M3 there, so check its label in store.
The models we checked use 212-363kWh a year on NEA's label, which prices out at roughly $57-$98 a year at 27 cents per kWh. A vented dryer uses far more: EuropAce's 8kg vented model is rated at 683kWh a year.
For most Singapore homes, yes. Heat pump dryers cost more upfront but the ones we checked use a third to half the electricity of a vented model, dry at lower temperatures that are gentler on fabrics, and do not need an outside vent. Vented dryers like Beko's 8kg ($669) only make sense if you dry rarely.
