Roger, Canterbury/Kent Frequent user

Score 7.0/10

Good points:: We wanted an easy to use product. This is exactly that. Open door, place washing in what is an excellent size drum. close door. Turn dial to number of minutes you want drying cycle to last and press the start button. So simple by 6 year old can use it!
Bad points:: The Condenser Dryer Vent seems so much poor powerful than any other model we have owned. The draw back of this is that the fluff that is powered out the machine in the condenser collector is blown out at at such a velocity it blows out the condenser unit and we seem to be forever clearing up fluff from arround the machine.

Good points:: A very easy machine to use, quiet running and well built.
Bad points:: some washing programmes can take a long time. No hot water feed so heats cold this adds to time, but still a perfect wash and great value.

Product Features

Type of dryer	Vented
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.
Drum size (Kilograms)	6

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.
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.
Type of drying control	Timer

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	85
The distance from the very top of the product to the very bottom.
Width in cm	59.5

Depth in cm	56.2

Noise level (Decibels)	69
Measures how loud the machine is. For quieter machines, look for models with a noise level under 60 decibles.
Display	No
Display of remaining time	No
Tells you how long there is left until the end of the cycle.
Child lock	No
A mechanism that makes it difficult for children to open the machine during operation.
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.
Drying efficiency	C
Measures how efficient the machine is at drying. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient.
Heating system	Electric

Release date	2008-04-22
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
