Hisense 8kg Washer Dryer — Laundry Finished Indoors
A washer dryer earns its price during the rains. From March to May and again from September, drying clothes outside in Kampala becomes a guessing game — you hang a load, it rains at three, and everything sits damp on a line under the veranda for two days smelling of mildew. This Hisense washes 8kg and dries 5kg in the same drum, so that problem simply stops existing.
It is also the answer for apartments with no outdoor drying space, for anyone with a baby producing constant laundry, and for households where the washing has to be done at night.

What To Know Before You Buy A Washer Dryer
The drying capacity is smaller than the wash capacity, and that is not a fault — it is how every combo unit on the market works. Clothes need room to tumble in hot air. If you wash a full 8kg load and want to dry all of it, you take half out and dry in two batches. People who do not know this feel cheated. Now you know.
Drying uses a lot of electricity. Considerably more than washing. On a prepaid meter you will see it. Most of our customers use the dryer during the rains and hang clothes out the rest of the year, which is the sensible approach and keeps the bill down.
Requirements
Piped water with decent pressure, a drain point, a level floor, and a properly earthed socket on its own circuit. Do not run a washer dryer off an extension lead — the heating element draws real current and a thin cable will get hot.
If you do not have reliable piped water, this washer dryer will not work for you and a twin tub is the honest recommendation. If you want automatic washing but do not need drying, the TCL 7kg front loader costs considerably less.
Leave the door ajar between cycles so the seal dries. Clean the filter every couple of months. Use less detergent than the box says.
