That's a very nice tumble dryer you've got there. It certainly looks smart and has a good amount of features.
The John Lewis model looks similar in terms of appearance, features and price but it looks as though you've made the right decision!
Happy Drying!

Erm....
See my disclaimer on pic 2- its for baby clothes lol!

Glad you like it- its defiantly trying to be above its Zanussi roots lol ;-)
Jonny
It will be stacked on an Electrolux Insight washing machine with exactly the same design control panel. The only thing that wont match is the Zanussi - Electrolux branding. Still for what it cost me I really cant complain-it was about 45% off the normal cost price!!

Happy drying, Seamus.
Where is the lint filter?
If this is a condensing, where is the water dump? Does it have a hosepipe?

Filters..
Hey Lawrence
There are actually 2- the main one slots into the door,see pic one- you can see the recess to remove it on the top. This is very fine so it should remove most of the lint. The 2nd one is at the bottom of the drum opening- its most obvious in the last pic
.
The condensed water container takes the place of the detergent drawer and pulls out in the same way. It can be converted to permanent drain if required
Seamus.
P.s Darren-it should be delivered tomorrow- will sort pics asap

hope yours is better than mine!!
I have the same dryer bought from Powerhouse. The sensor is spot on.... the baby dry is VERY gentle..... the easy iron is great for part drying shirts then hanging them to dry, ironing is a breeze....
BUT
I have had this annoying squeak or clicking noise from the day I bought it. Problem is that it is intermittent and is impossible to pinpoint when it is going to happen. HAd Service Force out 3 times and the damn thing behaves itself every time!!!!!
I am now out of warranty and thinking about trading it in for another model....solely for the annoying noise, otherwise it is a great dryer.
If there is a white goods god, i hope he smiles on your machine!
Good luck
Peter

oh and by the way....
The quick dry just takes 5 minutes off the cool down process....
In my opinion condensor dryers need extra time to cool because of the high temps they work with. that of a way of introducing fresh air into the machine on cool down...

Nice one Seamus
I`m sure you could get a Lux drawer & substitute the water container, failing that get your art pens out,
And I want to see a seamless stacking kit...LOL

High Temperatures?
Everytime I read that in a UK thread I wonder what on earth??? Condensers, at least in Germany do not run at "high" temperatures.
Has anyone actually go thermostat specs proving they are much warmer than conventional dryers?
I think it more likely that they run quite a bit longer than do exhaust dryers and for this reason the clothes come out feeling warmer.
I just can not imagine a dryer with "delicate" or even "permanent-press/synthetic" settings running "hot".

My discussions with Miele
Indicate that the Miele Condensor dryers run at about 50degC whereas most vented dryers over here run at 40-42degC
That said, my new Miele condensor dryer even on low heat shrivels up anything synthentic. I now have lots of expensive underpants and socks that now have elastic like a scrunchie. The other thing I've found with a condensor dryer vs a vented dryer, is that Knit fabrics, like tshirts, tend to shrink badly, whereas in a vented dryer the shrinkage was much less slight.
I'm very dismayed that Miele didnt tell me about the 30 day return policy on dryers when I bought it, as I would've returned it and bought an F&P TL dryer instead. So I now have my early 70's whirlpool dryer stacked on top and put all synthetic items in it, leaving the Miele to dry the non synthetics.

50° is
Not really "hot". By any index.
However, the problem is easily solved - just have the thermostat (whether mechanical button) or (calibrated diode/resistor) swapped out.
Funny, neither my ancient Mielen nor my "Matura" (AEG) nor my current AEG have ever shrunk or damaged anything. All three were MOL at the time I bought them.
I am not doubting you, I just don't understand it. And 50° is by no means warm enough to explain the damage.
(50°C =122°F)

A hundred and 122 degress F??? That's even cooler than my Whirlpool gas dryer on delicate! The commercial Dexter dryer at work runs at 185 degrees F!! The towels that come out of it are like sand paper!

Wow...
Now ive had a chance to put it through its paces I have to say the difference in performance compared with the 2000 model Creda is replaced is astounding!- not only does it take at least 15 mins off the dry time for a full load, it also collects maybe twice as much water!.
A load consisting of 2 pretty thick bathmats, one large bath sheet, couple of white tops and a single bedding set spun @ 1200 in the Insight was done in under 1hr 20. Thats at least 15 mins less than the Creda!
Overall I like it

Seamus,
That tallies very well with my AEG which, when I bought it, was one of the "least slow" of the condensers. I use the water (through a Mellita coffe filter, first) for my steam iron and cleaning - it is effectively de-ionized.
What do you use your's for?

Condensed Water
Hey Keven
I have to admit it normally goes down the drain, maybe I will rinse the bath with it if ive just got out tho!. I have a filter jug for drinking water and the iron is filled from that.
Another thing I forgot to mention im really impressed with is the lint filtration- its far better than the Creda as well!!
