Capability to dry large loads in its very big drum. It also dries much faster than our old machine.
-
The venting hose supplied with the dryer is made with very thin material and tears very easily.

The large drum is fantastic, and I am finding it dries clothes much quicker than my old machine, which had a smaller drum. The large opening door makes it much easier to fill and empty, and it is simple enough to use that even the husband can do it (we live in hope!)

It has a good size drum to take the 8kg capacity load and the door opens really wide to enable easy access for those bigger items. The built in removable filter is easily removed for cleaning. Easily operated with simple instructions. So far I am impressed

The hose is quite short for those people who want to feed it out through a window or door like me as apposed to making a hole in the wall

Product is good value for money with a good load capacity of 8kg.
-
The Tumble Drier has a button which states on/off - however it only turns the machine on - it doesn't turn the machine off, so the button is very misleading. The only way to stop the drum from turning is to physically pull the door open. I use to have an old Hoover Tumble Drier and this had a door open button, which was alot easier to use.
