Have any TWTD'ers had any of the publicised problems, or have you been offered the modification by the manufacturers? Just wondering as my dryer falls into the faulty group, it's been no problem in 4 years, but I've unplugged it till further notice!! |  | | |  |

This is more of my wife's area of expertise but as I understand ours fell into the faulty category and hot point exchanged without any problem, at least I didn't hear of any! Our was only 18 months old | | | |

Didn't have any problems with ours. They offered to come and check it and make any modification necessary but was going to be nearly four months later. We accepted an alternative offer to replace. Delivered within seven days and old one taken away. |  |

Ours was one of the models needing to be modified.
If you call up and say it is smoking when being used they just exchange for a new one as quickly as they can. | | | |

We had ours modified last year. After they failed to sort it when promised, I complained politely via Twitter and had it done within a week. |  |

I've asked my maid/cleaning woman and she said phone hotpoint, give them the details and they will replace it.
She also suggested if you're not going to use take a blowtorch to it and tell hotpoint it caught fire. Also get down the tip get an old tv etc also blowtorch them and tell hotpoint when it caught fire it also damaged the TV, microwave, camera etc standing near the dryer and you need brand new replacements for them |  | | |

Just had mine fixed this morning! 😃
We kept taking the fluff out after every wash, and the engineer said that was the reason why ours was in good condition and wasn't likely to have caught fire any time soon |  | | |

Registered about 18 months ago when they first said there was a fault .
Had the letter to say either they wouold be out in two months or they would replace the 7 year old model with a brand new one for £69.
No brainer brand new and two year gaurantee? |  | | |
