Have used the machine quite a lot already. Build-wise, slightly less robust than I would have expected from a Bosch (fairly flimsy water collection drawer and main door) but so far it has done its job and dried clothes well. The drier has fewer automatic programme settings than our old machine (cheaper brand) but two big positives are that there is a double 'fluff filter' which helps prevent clogging up, and it is far cheaper to run. Although drying times are a lot longer than the old (condenser) machine.
