Hmmm... well. Apparently, we're not replacing the Creda, it's going to the garage instead to be used for emergencies? :(

[zanussifan13]

I recommend the Hotpoint TCM580 Or the Hotpoint TVM570

[Mielefan100]

@zanussifan13 Thanks! :D

[Mielefan100]

Thank you sooooo much anyone who has commented! I appreciate it sooo much! Looks like it will probably be a Hotpoint :) Thanks again!

[HotpointForever]

Try the Hotpoint TVM570 as my mate has one and he loves it!

Or an Indesit IDV65. :)

[Mielefan100]

@HotpointForever Thanks! :D

[Sewcoolwash]

hotpoints new range of time driven models might be worth looking at

[Mielefan100]

@Sewcoolwash Thanks! :)

[Washercrazy]

My Sugestion is a Hotpoint Aquarius TVM570 7KG vented which is £189.99 in both Currys and Comet.

[Mielefan100]

@Washercrazy Thanks! :D

[MrZanussi2011]

Argos has Xbox 360 under Brands of tumble dryers on their website lol

[Mielefan100]

@MrZanussi2011 Lol! :D

[MrZanussi2011]

If you are used to a vented dryer and already have a set up for a vented I'd stick with a vented. From own experience our vented Hotpoint TDL31 dried in 50 mins, now our beko condenser takes 2+ hours for the same load so it can be a pain when we do lots of washing

If you dont use the dryer much i would suggest like a cheap and cheerful Indepoint or White Knight or something. Comet & Currys both have an Integrated White Knight for £199.99

[Mielefan100]

@MrZanussi2011 Yeah, condensers take an awful amount of time to dry :/ Yeah, cheap and cheerful's the way :) Thanks! :D

[whichwasher2007]

yeah get a tvf770. my tvf760 is 2 years old and no signes of scrapeing or squeeking, could do with a service though (hoover out the inside of the machine)

or a WK

definatly not a hoover or candy, just take far too long to dry

[Mielefan100]

@whichwasher2007 Funny, they're only £189 now too, which is well within budget :) I def like them :) Thanks! :D

[glenfieldmathk1]

Some thoughts:

Bosch - no reverse action, tangle large loads, results in some items not drying properly.

Hoover - pretty good with big drum, but seem flimsy

White knight - good old school design, made in uk, fast at drying.

Indesit company dryers - made in uk, best for value for money, do a good job.

[Mielefan100]

@glenfieldmathk1 Thanks! Much Appreciated! :)

[glenfieldmathk1]

My best advice would be a vented tumble dryer. The Hotpoint ones are very good and not expensive. From my grandma and uncles opinion who both switched from vented to condensing ones weren't happy. They say Condensers take much longer, and some venteds are actually more energy efficient if you look and compare capacity rating plates and EU labels.

Look out for another Creda, might still sell them!

[Mielefan100]

@glenfieldmathk1 Yeah, funny, Nanny's Creda takes over 2 1/2 hours to dry :O

Thanks! :)

[marthalover4ever]

get a hotpoint like myn 7 kg  or indesit

[Mielefan100]

@marthalover4ever Thanks :) Yeah, was sort of thinking along those lines :)

[ilovemiele1]

@marthalover4ever they are good, my TVM560 (6kg of yours) has put up with loads of overloading when my mum uses it and its never had a problem.. no squeaking or scraping no wet left. its getting on 4 years now!

[Mielefan100]

@ilovemiele1 Well, that's def better than poor oul Creda! :)

[ilovemiele1]

@Mielefan100 lol. i woud say aqualtis because they are probably cheap enough as ultima washers themselves can be like 300 quid. if not i would say a bosch or a siemens.

[Mielefan100]

@ilovemiele1 Hmm, yeah, I like the Aqualtis too, thanks for your help! :)

[Mielefan100]

@marthalover4ever Much Appreciated!

[dragfish100]

Ho did it dye anyway

[Mielefan100]

@dragfish100 Well, heater went funny, wasn't heating as well as it should, then would almost over heat when put on again, and then took the back cover off, cos there was black soot with metal filings, turns out the bearings/shaft are more or less disintergrating so to speak :/

[dragfish100]

I meant indeset stupid phone thinks it's smarter then me and read my mind lol

[Mielefan100]

@dragfish100 Lol, funny, I didn't quite understand it :)

[dragfish100]

Unrest like my old grand or better still hotpoint

[Mielefan100]

@dragfish100 Lol, to be fair, I always loved our Creda :)
