...internet looking at the latest Hotpoint appliances . Which I must say helped in the decision making . The Hotpoint VTD20. Tumble dryer. * Freestanding - will fit where required. *Front loading - the door is slightly wider than older models for ease of use. *Vented - requires a hose to release steam during the drying process.

...start button. Finally the Hotpoint logo is placed to the lower right side of the door . Boasting the dryer to have "reverse action". To my delight this means less tangled laundry !

Advantages: Timer delay, finish alarm
Disadvantages: Not found any yet

...I had just bought a Hotpoint dishwasher, I thought I would try their tumble dryers. This is a vented machine so is cheaper than the condensing variety. Advantages:- Very quiet in operation - much much quieter than my last one - or is that because it is in the garage in the new house, which means I can't hear it!!!! It has C rating which means it's not the most efficient but it isn't the worst - anyway you have to pay a lot more for an A rated ...

Advantages: 6kg load, cool cycle, timer and alarm, front opening, reliable
Disadvantages: Some people may find it too big - same size as a washing machine

I have had my Hotpoint VTD20 for just over a year, and have used it regularly, and quite heavily in the winter months. I have a 6kg washing machine and can easily get the entire contents into my drier. The beauty of this machine is that it will do delicate items without damaging elasticated parts, and in a reasonable time. If you want to be alerted at while the machine is in use, or when it finishes, there is a timer with an alarm. I have found the ...
...I have dried jeans because the rivets can get extremely hot. The filter is very easy to take out and clean, and the machine itself is an attractive addition to the other appliances in my kitchen. As it is a front-loader it is easily tucked under kitchen worksurfaces, or with an attachement, fixed on top of a washing machine. I had debated about paying the extra (my last tumbler cost £100), but have been very impressed by the ease of use and general ... Read review
