Default Condensing tumble dryer

Just bought a new condensing dryer that doesn't condense too well.

Seems to us that the condensing element uses the machine's incoming
(cooler) air to chill the condenser frame to condense the water vapour
in the outgoing air. Thus the colder the room, the colder the air
going in, the better the condenser should work.

The manufacturer says no - incoming air must be warm for it to work
properly! Now we are confused.

Could anyone help please?

Many thanks.

Its the dew point if you have an ice cold beer in a warm pub the glass
becomes wet on the outside but if you take it outside in the freezing cold
it doesn't.
