The dryer is much quieter than our last one, and despite the fact that the programs are long due to it being a heat pump dryer, generally it finishes way before the allotted timings, with the contents being dry It's important if you can't sort clothes out to choose the mixed load program, otherwise some stuff can still be a bit damp, but this is all explained in the instructions. The only program so far that has taken as long as the timer suggests is the hygiene one. We are very happy with the choice of programs, and the stuff comes out with minimal wrinkles, even without choosing the anti-wrinkle option. Overall, very pleased with my purchase and it plays a little tune when finished which is far nicer than our washing machine, which in comparison sounds very demanding ;)
