re: Fehlkonstuktion / old: Very handy, even in small apartments

After a little more than 1.5 years, there was an increased Flusenansammlung in the device. This was reflected by the drying process was terminated after a short time and the display for a full water tank in the display appeared. In reality there was only minimal liquid in this. The technician has been appointed and it turned out that despite the double lint filter and clean these after every drying cycle, the drip tray in the machine with fluff was full and the pump, the water was no longer pumping into the collection container.

Angry makes me the statement by the engineer and Siemens, that this is normal wear and tear. It is better, therefore, not even to dry for example, terry goods with the device, because in the e-mail response from Siemens I was pointed out that particularly terry goods gives a lot of fluff.
Mir is now the question of why I bought a dryer, if not dry the laundry.

When would be the possibility of the drip tray regularly to free itself from fluff, as is also possible with washing machines, this problem would not even arise. In addition, the lint filter may be designed differently, resulting in less fluff would fall into the unit.

Original rating (4 stars):
-----------------------------------

The dryer I have now for about 4 months in use and am very satisfied.

My apartment is very small and before have I labored there for almost four years with a simple Flügeltrocker. I have long wondered where I could set up the dryer, because the washing machine is already in the living room (because the bathroom is too small) and ensures there regularly for a loud noise.
Shortly before the delivery I have then decided to set up dryer in the bedroom and has proved to be very workable.

The following points should be considered when the installation site:
1. The sounds are quite noisy during operation, because the drum constantly moving and is not now and then still as in the washing machine. In addition, the heat pump generates additional noise.
2. The room is heated by the dryer, it is in the winter, but not in the summer, practically.
3. The path to an outflow should not be too far, because the water collecting container must be emptied after each use and coloreds this is very full.
4. The air is a little stuffy during the operation in the area, so it is convenient when the dryer is not in the living room.

Using the dryer I can on weekends multiple washings done consecutively. In addition, no longer have the problem the moisture to obtain due to drying laundry, out of the apartment.

The dryer, I give the following reasons a star deduction:
1. The water collection tank can not be opened completely and with the time set at the bottom of the container residues (fluff etc.) fixed.
2. The dryer has a double lint filter. In general protects the heat pump quite well before the fluff, but fall when removing the sieves to clean ever now and then a couple of fluff into the shaft and can not be so removed.
