We have a Hotpoint Dryer, six years old
I have received an offer from Hotpoint for an Extended Warranty,

Any thoughts

If you'd stuffed a fiver a month in a shoebox since the machine's
original 1 year warranty expired, you could go out and have your
choice of many Hotpoint 7/8kg condenser dryers now ...



True. But not the question I posed.

Or even a proper gas one. ;-) Of course getting gas installed where
you want it might make it unviable.

Well, there is no mains gas in the village, so that's out. I don't know
if they even do Calor Gas dryers, an interesting thought. But I'm happy
with electric anyway.


Looking at the figures for heating, LPG is still way cheaper than
electricity. Dunno how it would compare with a heat-pump based electric
machine though. Installation cost (if you don't already have lpg would
rule it out I guess. LPG machines do exist though.
