Well my Tumble Dryer did cut out.Dont store wet clothes in it, also leave the door slightly open after use, this seems to cure the wet in the electrics

Apart from a few snags this product seem to do a great job.

It was 1 month after the year and the display burnt out. Called hotpoint as they have a 5 years free parts warranty and was quoted £120-00 for the job. I asked if I could have the part to carry out the repair myself (5 screws and a clip) and was told they could not give me the parts.

Looks nice, when it works it works well. Three breakdowns in one year (the third just days after warranty). 2nd and 3rd faults cut off all electrics in the house. Customer service not helpful, engineers weren't available at a convenient time and when they came did not have the parts to repair. (read more)
