I am extremely pleased with this product. I bought it having consulted WHICH. I find it to be efficient, quiet and easy to use. I was at my wits end with my previous dryer and didn't know which model to choose as a replacement. I have no regrets whatsoever and recommend this wholeheartedly. For a start, the controls make sense and are easy to operate!

It does what it is suppose to - dries clothes properly! Compared to my previous dryer, it is slightly quicker, and being vented, a little more economical. I didn't really want a sensor - I have to wash my children's duvets regularly, so I needed to be sure the drier dried them thoroughly - I didn't want to chance a sensor that wan't 100%. Value for money - I give it top marks!
-
None so far! I suppose one could say it is basic, but, certainly for me, even machines with lots of different functions, I tend just to use the same few. And it should mean there is less to go wrong!

The instruction book was in several languages EXCEPT English! So it was just as well that the tumbler drier is so easy to set up.
Not really a bad point, since it did not promise the feature, but we would ideally have liked the machine to have a delayed start feature so that we could programme it to use electricity off peak.
