This tumble dryer has a nice big opening at the front.
I've also connected the hose to the washing machine drain, so I don't need to empty the water at the front.
It's a little bit tricky to figure out what setting does what - still working on it - and clothes are often still damp at the end of the cycle.
Glad I went for the heat pump though - much better than the previous vented dryer as it doesn't expel warm air into the room. It's slightly noisier that the previous dryer, but it's worth it to save electricity.
