Our old tumble-dryer is fading, and I'm pondering replacement
options. One key factor is that it vents from the bottom of the
rear panel, approx centrally. I don't want to buy a new one and
then find it vents at top left or whatever.

So does anyone (kitchen fitters maybe?) know of a source for dryer
outlet dimensions? Anything to avoid walking round Comet with a
notepad, fending off commission-hungry yellowshirts...

TIA!

Thanks. That's an interesting idea, but I think I'll stick with the trad
revolving dryer.

Any suggestions re air vent location would still be appreciated, friends.

You can get shape change adapters for the vent ducts, so the machine can
still be pushed right back without the hose getting in the way. A round to
flat rectangular box shape will fit dryers with the outlet anywhere on the
back side or front, and still allow the round the flexible duct to be put
out the hole in the wall.

Something like this
