montpellier dryers??

[aegokocarat]

this dryer looks to have some sort of EU origin by looking at the drum

Thing is though, the Chinese will copy anything, no questions asked. I could give them my ex and I would get a carbon copy lol Not that I would want two of them, one was bad enough! =D

Lol
True Andy, my cousin is giving me a beko vented dryer, she hates it (or her husband was moaning about the energy consumption lol) its weeks old too!

Montpellier TVS6 Vented Dryer

So tempted to buy one of these for myself. The build quality is the best i've seen in a long time. Just a shame it hasn't got a glass door.

Siemens Vented Multipellier dryer

I was just thinking, I have seen a Multipellier design Siemens Vented dryer here several years ago, think I saw it on Ebay.
It had the same design, juts a different drum, same door, same control panel layout, just more sensor options, and a small display.
This could explain the build quality, if they have manufactured a Siemens dryer before, then it will be very good.
It could be that it is made in Germany, or looks like Whirlpool made it, I can't see it being Hoover.

Certainly no Whirlpool or Candy accosiation, I remember this drum well from a trade fair in Germany in 2008. The front was totally different, it had a much larger solid door that covered the majority of the front (can't find a pic) and then there was another model more like this pic, but kind of looked like it was using AM components. I think maybe the design / tooling is from the dryers down under.

Hi Optima and Andy the montpellier drum looks like an austrailian fisher and paykel drum. What is the performence of it like?
