At a glance
This Haier Laundry Centre combines a large 12kg washer and 9kg heat pump dryer in one compact vertical unit, making it a strong fit for busy households that want high capacity without using side-by-side floor space. It stands out for simultaneous wash and dry operation, strong 5-star wash and 8-star dry ratings, and useful hygiene features. The main limitation is its tall fixed format, which may not suit every laundry layout.
What it’s great for
- Large Family Laundry
- Space-Saving Laundry Setups
- Frequent Washing
- Wash-and-Dry Convenience
- Hygiene-Focused Clothing Care
Where it works best
- Family Home
- Apartment Laundry
- Townhouse
- Compact Laundry Room
- Busy Household
Who it’s for
- Family Household
- Busy Parents
- Apartment Owner
- Renovator
- Convenience-Focused Buyer
Things to consider
Its stacked laundry-centre design saves floor space, but it offers less placement flexibility than buying separate washer and dryer units for custom side-by-side or under-bench layouts.
Small apartment suitability
Good for apartments that need to save floor space, provided the laundry area can accommodate a taller vertical appliance format.
Family load fit
Very good for medium to large households thanks to the 12kg washer and 9kg dryer capacities.
Energy efficiency score
9/10 - strong 5-star wash and 8-star heat pump dry ratings make it a very efficient combo for its size.
All-in-one convenience rating
9/10 - combines large-capacity washing and drying in one unit, with simultaneous operation and smart combined cycles.
Key benefits
- 12kg Washer Capacity: Handles larger household loads more comfortably, helping reduce the number of wash cycles needed each week.
- 9kg Heat Pump Dryer: Dries substantial loads while using heat pump technology and an 8-star energy rating for lower running costs than less efficient dryer types.
- Simultaneous Washer and Dryer Operation: Lets you wash and dry at the same time to speed up laundry days in busy homes.
- 10 Smart Combi Cycles: Simplifies fabric care by coordinating washer and dryer programs for convenient end-to-end laundry routines.
- UV Protect Wash Modifier: Supports hygiene-focused washing by helping kill more than 99.99% of bacteria in supported cycle settings.
- 5-Star Wash Energy Rating: Helps keep washing energy use lower with a strong 5-star Australian energy rating.
- Wool Cycles on Washer and Dryer: Gives added confidence when caring for wool garments with dedicated cycles on both machines.
- 13+ Wash Cycles and 11+ Dry Cycles: Provides broad program choice for everyday clothes, mixed loads and more specialised laundry needs.
Q: Can the washer and dryer run at the same time?
A: Yes. This laundry centre has separate washer and dryer sections, so both can operate simultaneously or individually. That helps on busy laundry days, but clothes still need to be moved from the washer drum to the dryer drum by hand.
Q: Do clothes move straight from washing to drying automatically?
A: No. Haier HLC1290CTB2 is a stacked washer and dryer, not a single-drum wash-dry machine, so there is no automatic transfer between cycles. You wash in one section and then load the other yourself before drying starts.
Q: Will a full 12kg wash load fit in the dryer?
A: No. The washer takes 12kg, while the dryer takes 9kg, so a very large wash load may need to be split before drying. Smaller everyday loads are a better match if you want to wash and dry in the same session.
Q: Does this heat pump dryer need an external vent?
A: No. The dryer uses heat pump technology, so it is designed to dry without a traditional external vent. That makes placement easier in many laundries, but the unit still needs front access and some surrounding airflow for normal operation.
Q: Will this laundry centre fit under a standard benchtop?
A: No. Haier HLC1290CTB2 is 1500mm high, so it will not fit under a standard benchtop. It is designed as a vertical laundry centre, so check the full height as well as the door swing and access space in front.
Q: Can this replace side-by-side washer and dryer units?
A: Yes, if the space suits a vertical format. Haier HLC1290CTB2 uses a 600mm width and 690mm depth instead of a side-by-side layout, but the fixed stacked design gives you less placement flexibility than buying two separate appliances.
