We were less than six months really lucky owner of this dryer. Simply brilliant, what goes up there and as space-saving is the part compared to the old wing dryer! But then ...! A beaver duvet cover was suddenly too much for the top floor. The plastic piece, in which the top floor was hooked, and broke out was the dream of a dream stand. Amazon was with regard to the complaint really exemplary and simple !!! Thank you! With the back transferred money we have now spoiled for choice, because a new dryer is needed. All research revealed that apparently all models (partially) are made of plastic. So again the Metaltex, by far the longest dry area? I am skeptical regarding the new Stand feet now, because the old model (at all four corners could take off heavy feet) were in their function really fantastic. Whether that can keep up a metatarsal there? Amazingly, that (although less material appears to be installed), the new model is almost 10 euros more expensive than the model that we have acquired in the fall of 2011! Despite all the Gemeckere Metaltex is our opinion the best thing there is currently on the market.
