Rae, Aberdeenshire

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: It's very quiet, it has pretty good functionality and is quite pleasant to the eye.
Bad points:: Some of the cycle times are 2hrs + - so it would nice to reduce them - but this is not a huge issue to be honest.
Would be better if there were more options for drying times - they are rather limited.
