That would be very much appreciated.

Well, it duly arrived on Wednesday and so far I have been running it
with the reservoir rather than plumbing it in but this will happen in
due course.

First impressions: very impressed.

The performance is as expected - it just works. The timings in the user
guide are quite accurate for a load straight from the washing machine.
It dumps a lot of heat into the room but I am not aware of any water
vapour escaping.

The filters are easy to get at and clean, and the water container is at
the top of the machine, in the same place as you would find the powder
drawer on a washing machine, so it's easy to remove and empty.

I have never had a tumble dryer before, only washer/dryers and it is
easy to see why a dedicated machine is a big improvement.

We previously had washer/dryers becasue we hardly used the dryer at
all - I suspect that now we have a tumble dryer it will get used a lot
more...

Let me know if there is anything else I can add or expand on.
