Mine came from the tip 'cos the drum had broken away from the bearing
carrier at the rear. Three small coachbolts and some nylocs and it's
still going nearly five years later. Not bad for a condensing dryer.
On a related note, I notice that condensing dryers always score badly on
energy consumption ratings, but I feel that's a bit unfair. We only use
ours when it's too cold and damp to dry outdoors or on the rack winched
up into the stairwell. In these conditions the heat from a vented dryer
would be lost to the outside world whereas ours is kept in the house,
usually on a day when the heating would be on anyway, so though it uses
more energy and electricity isn't as cheap as gas, at least it isn't
thrown away.
