Ainya, Milton Keynes , “Busy mum or dad”

Score 10.0/10

+ The condenser... Easy to store anywhere in the house, very easy to empty water after each cycle, great that it has a senser and only runs for as long as it has to to complete a cycle, when clothes are dry, it ends. Also will continue to spin the clothes every half hour to prevent creases, until I open and empty. Attractive looking too.

- None....

JOEL, SHEFFIELD , “Busy mum or dad”

Score 9.0/10

+ Easy to use, plenty of different settings and you can use the pipe provided so that you do not need to empty the water tray after each cycle - it empties itself into the waste pipe.
Good load size and in our conservatory its relatively quiet. Option to dry to iron or dry to wear is very good.
Easy access to remove fluff from clothes after each cycle. Option to set cycle for 10, 20, 30 mins etc.

- Door feels like it may not last as long as the rest of the machine.
After each load it says that it needs emptying of water, even if the tray isnt full or if its actually draining itself. Just need to turn off and on and then it's fine.

Paul, Bradford , “Busy mum or dad”

Score 10.0/10

+ Easy to empty water collector. Easy to clean fluff collector. Easy to set to the correct programme. Has a sensor which was amazing at this price. Comes with clear instructions. It has a really useful childlock you can set to prevent a little person opening it during the programme but also when it's not running so they can't climb in and make a "den".

- Slightly louder but not intrusive. It's quite angular to look at but that's really me trying hard to find a bad point!!

Lynda, Newtownabbey , “Busy mum or dad”

Score 9.0/10

+ As condenser dryers go, this is a very good and I would recommend it. Very easy to use - programmes already done and there is a facility for extra drying time where needed (although I haven't had to use this yet as all clothes have been dry at the end of programme cycle). Water and filter easy to empty. Very good value for money

- Just a bit on the noisey side - not much thought just slightly more noisey than a vented dryer.

Score 9.0/10

+ I chose this machine based on it's price, but it also had great reviews which was important when making the decison which one to buy. In the whole I'm really happy with the purchase. It is much quieter than my previous condensor dryer, and as previously said it was a very reasonable price. It doesn't seem to dry completely on any of the cycles, which has meant that i've had to put it back on for a further 10 - 20 mins but to be honest, that's not an issue. I've never been one to put the dryer on and go out incase it spontaneously combusts, so I just turn it back on and when I come back it's ready.

Kerstin, London , “Busy mum or dad”

+ I'm really pleased with this tumble dryer easy to use, and has some features as taking the dryness of the clothes.Don't have over dried clothes,and need less time then my old one.
The ironing goes faster as it is not so creased anymore.Overall price/value is unbeatable.You get for a very good price a lot, where you would pay for other brands a lot more for the same features.

Product Features

Type of Dryer	Condenser
Vented dryers have a hose which transfers the waste, damp air out of the machine and through a hole in the wall or a window to the outside. They are less expensive than condenser machines but the hose means they need to be placed by an outside wall. Condenser machines collect the excess water within the machine which can then be emptied after use. They therefore do not need a hose and can be placed anywhere in the house.
Energy Efficiency	C
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient. The most efficient products can now be identified by new ‘A’ and ‘A*’ ratings.
Drum size (kg)	6
Child-Lock	Yes
A mechanism that makes it difficult for children to open the machine during operation.
Start Delay Option	No
Enables you to delay the start of the cycle. This is useful if you want to set the machine to go on during the night so that you can take advantage of cheaper electricity rates.
Energy Savings Trust Feature	No
A Yes means this this product has been rated as being energy-efficient by the Energy Savings Trust. Good for the environment and good for your electricity bill!
Height in cm	84
The distance from the very top of the product to the very bottom.
Width in cm	59.5
Depth in cm	56

Type of Loading	Front Loading
This refers to where you can load the washing into the machine. Front loading is when the door is on the front of the machine and top loading is when you put washing in through an opening at the top of the machine. When purchasing a top loading machine, make sure you have enough room to open the hatch (top loading machines cannot be placed under a worktop). When looking for front loading machines, take note of which way the door opens so that you can make sure you have enough room to take washing in and out of the machine.
Colour	Multi
The main colour of the product.
Construction	Freestanding
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Display of Remaining Time	No
Tells you how long there is left until the end of the cycle.
Half-Load	No
When washing only a few items, the half-load feature uses less water which will save time, energy and of course water.
Energy Consumption in kWh at 1400 RPM	3.9
Number of Programmes	11
The number of different programmes available on this machine that you can choose from
Release Date	1 Jul 2006
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
