Re: Hotpoint WD860P Dryer too hot??

Engineer came out today, reckons there’s nothing wrong with this one. interesting that between this one and the old one they have changed the heating thingy on the dryer to a completely different part/system hmmmm.

Anyway on low heat the door has ‘hot points’ on it that would burn my young toddlers hands should he touch it for more than a second, washing comes out scorching.
Have done a straw pole around washer dryer owners and everyone seem to agree low heat should be luke warm.

Will definitely take your advice – however have to say the retailer were no help in getting our first one replaced, hotpoint suppled an authorisation code and everything and retailer didn’t want to know. Hotpoint were brilliant at sorting it out and I have dealt direct with them since. This all started in July so better get a shufty on as that warranty is ticking away.

Re: Hotpoint WD860P Dryer too hot?? Update

The engineer came out and agreed there was a problem that he didn’t feel was worth an attempt at fixing.

We received our new washing machine last week, it appears to have the same problem. The engineer is coming out today. We are now onto our third washer dryer, it seems they can’t get the technology right on their dryers. In the meantime our washing is piling up.
