Hotpoint CTD40P Tumble Dryer
Absolute rubbish - First one I had broke down continuously after 11 visits from engineer they eventually replaced it but only after a great deal of shouting on my behalf *(incidentally they count one fault as one visit - so if the engineer has to call four times to fix the same fault they count it as one call - unfortunatey if I have to wait in on four separate days it still counts as four days abscence from work).
As I said the offending item was eventually replaced, after the guarantee expired the thermostat died, was replaced , died again eight months later and died again six months later. Luckily I am able to replace these parts myself or I would be charged £100 a time for the engineer to fit them with the parts warranty. Still its around £30 a time for the replacement parts.
Needless to say I have given any product bearing the Hotpoint name a wide berth since I have owned this.
