This video was very beneficial, I have this washer dryer and didn’t have a clue how to use the dryer until watching this. Thank you!

Ive had the previous model of this machine for a year or so, to say I've learned a lot from this video is an understatement. Thanks!

I second what Peter says,I always enjoy your vlogs,I've learnt a few bits and pieces over the time I've been watching. I think we just appreciate the time and effort you put into them. Good job 👍

As always, a thorough and informative review / demo of another great product. You knowledge of the goods you supply is second to none and the time, care and attention to detail you go into, to provide your customers with important information is hugely appreciated. I love visiting your channel, if only to educate myself on the potential pro's and con's of new technology. Thank you and keep them coming.

Thank you this was very helpful as I moved into a furnished flat and had no clue how best to utilise this machine. 😊

How do you use dry only?

What I want to know is, if I want to use this as a dryer only, what should the main control knob be pointing at or doesn't it matter ?

Great review,Big Help Thanks

Excellent video, thank you. Wish I'd watched it before. I used my new machine as a washer dryer last night for the first time. I think I may have set the dryer time to A3 because with the very basic instructions that came with the machine I didn't appreciate the difference. In fact I didn't get anything other than a basic sheet of instructions and nowhere does it mention the dryer settings. My problem was that the machine indicated that there was 1 minute to go so I went and made a cup of tea and it still indicated that it had 1 minute to go, After 30 minutes it still showed 1 minute to go and the machine was getting very hot. After 40 minutes I turned it off at the plug and had to wait for it to cool down.At this point I couldn't open the door. Eventualy I managed to turn to back on, set it to spin and drain which it did and I was able to open the door to a very creased duvet cover and pillows which even after ironing are still creased. Have to say I am not impressed. Is it a faulty machine? Or is this the way it indicates dryness? Please can anyone advise me.

Ive just got the 9635 9kg washer dryer, although one of your videos does seem to cover most, can you tell me if you will be doing a video on the 9635 any time soon. I think I have the gist from your other video but still unsure what I am doing. Thankyou you instructions are clear and easily understandable.

Great video. I notice this machine has a Woolmark Green sticker. I didn't see if yoiu commented on what this means and whether having it results in a better wool wash. Many thanks,

Great video for overall use. However I am struggling with the dry only option. Whichever cycle number the machine is on it appears to be drawing water in while drying. Is this normal? My previous two machines; zanussi & LG did not do this they had dry only buttons and did not Mable the noises of drawing water. Of this is a fault I’d appreciate your knowledge or at least a lesson on what I should be doing. Thank you. Would appreciate your reply.

Hello really pleased to find your video - watching it has been really helpful., the literature provided is inadequate. Our machine was delivered today by HOTPOINT and we discovered within an hour that the display does not work. I know this is not YOUR problem but it is really annoying. The delivering person tried the machine before leaving - surely he must have noticed, but he said nothing. We have reported it to Hotpoint and now have to wait for another engineer, we had 7 appointments before the insurer decided to provide a new machine !!

If it is faulty within the first 28 days of purchase, then it should be exchanged by the retailer you purchased it from.

Very helpful and informative, though perhaps instructing slightly slower could help; very warm presentation though. I did hit pause often. The only thing missing which would help is how and where to pour in power or liquid detergent ? I note that some cycles don't take powder. The section for soap looks a bit complicated.

How do I find the lint screen in these heat pump machines. I'm used to the lint catcher removable screen types in a regular machine that you clean after every load. But I'm flummoxed now. Pieces of lint gather around the door but a washed jumper was covered in lint after a wash cycle. What am I missing.

Hi, is there an option to select or limit the drying temperature? I have clothes that can only be dried at low heat, and washed with the synthetic cycle. Do I just select the drying option along with the synthetic cycle?

nice review

How the hell do you run a dry only! As no matter what setting if you click only dry option. It runs the setting that that’s apply to and pumps the drum full of water! It’s never going to dry. They should have removed the dry setting to a separate program so it will only dry like my previous hotpoint

Must admit it is not easy but if you select program 1 on the dial, then press the dry only option, the the drying options are underneath in the Dry button. You are correct that they should have a separate option for drying on its own.

Dry Only Issues with Hotpoint washer/dryers…. In order to get the machine to do a dry only cycle you need to press the dry only button, however what is not made clear in the instructions is that it DOES NOT WORK ON A RAPID 30 wash setting. In order to get it to work correctly you must first select on the main dial any other setting other than rapid wash 30, preferably select the type of fabric you are drying, ie cotton or synthetic, the dry only button will then work as described in the manual.

The machine won't weigh the clothes, it will normally be a process of guessing unfortunately when it comes to the weight and capacity of the clothes for each program. The only actual way is to physically weight the clothes on scales, which obviously will be a hassle each time you want to do a wash.

This will be for the full eco wash and drying program. There will be a way to reduce the time of either the washing or drying if you need it quicker. Don't forget that the drying will be on a sensor drying program, so it will adjust the time of it depending on the load and moisture content.
