Smart Connectivity and Convenience
Wi‑Fi control via the Dreame app allows users to start, pause and monitor cycles remotely, receive maintenance alerts and access tailored wash programmes. A large, intuitive display and streamlined interface make the machine easy to operate for all household members.

Dreame AI Twin Inverter L9 Dryer

Twin Inverter Heat Pump Drying
The L9 dryer combines an inverter motor, inverter compressor and high‑flow fan to deliver powerful yet fabric‑friendly drying. Low‑temperature heat‑pump technology supports 30‑minute fast drying, reduced noise and lower energy consumption.

AI‑Driven Drying Precision
Temperature and humidity sensors track moisture levels throughout the cycle, enabling the AI Drying Algorithm to stop at the ideal moment — preventing overdrying and protecting fabrics.

PressFree Steam Care
A dedicated steam‑refresh programme smooths creases in 25 minutes, reducing the need for manual ironing.

User‑Centric Design
Three drying outcomes — Cupboard Dry, Ready to Wear and Iron Dry — plus a four‑layer filtration system support cleaner air and better garment care. A premium TFT display knob elevates the user experience.

At 305 × 285 × 700 mm, the P‑Wind 10 fits neatly into bedrooms, studies and small living spaces.

Easy Installation and Smart Operation
Four swivel casters and a simple three‑step assembly process make setup straightforward. Users can control the unit via the LED display, remote control, Wi‑Fi or the Dreame app. A 24‑hour timer and sleep mode support quieter night‑time use. 
Available in black and camel.
