FAQ
What does 'value score' actually mean in this leaderboard?+
The ‘value score’ is calculated by dividing the product rating (out of 5) by its price (£). A higher value score indicates a better rating for the money spent on that tumble dryer. This allows you to quickly compare different models based on their performance relative to their cost.
Is the cheapest tumble dryer automatically the best value?+
Not necessarily. While the 'Amica ADV7CLCW 7kg Vented Tumble Dryer - White' is currently the cheapest (£189), it has a value score of 0.024.

How do I compare a 7kg dryer to an 8kg dryer?+

Does the type of ventilation (vented vs. air vented) affect the value?+
The type of ventilation – whether a dryer requires a vent to the outside or operates on air alone – can influence its price and therefore, indirectly, its value score. The HOMCOM 6kg Vented Tumble Dryer includes a vent, which may add to its cost.
What is the difference between the rating and the value score?+
The rating reflects customer satisfaction based on reviews, while the value score combines both. A high rating coupled with a low price results in a high value score, indicating excellent performance for the money. Conversely, a lower rating even with a low price will result in a lower value score.
Should I prioritise a higher rating or a lower price?+
