bought from currys 14 months ago and has started making a nasty burning smell

spoke to the retailer who are saying its over 12 months old so go do one.


anyone offer some advice on where i stand?
 
stripped down theres a small amount of dust and fluff but nothing overly so. going to try some further investigation into the "burning smell"

its still working fine, just giving off a burning odour after a couple of minutes use. hmmm


maybe some carbon trim will help?
 
You getting only a burning smell ? Or what about the odd squealing noise (and no not from her when she picks up your socks ;) )



pfft sorted now :)

stripped it down and got in about it with the compressed air, was surprisingly cleaner than i expected but there was the odd bit of lint kicking around, an hours use since rebuild and no burning smell

Yaaa man points
 
currys was where i bought it, phoned them this morning regarding this "issue" and got nothing but abuse and stupid comments about it only having a 12 month guarantee as its only a tumble dryer.


but as above stripped down blew everything out with compressed air and its tickety boo and thats now 2 loads that i've ran through it quite happily :)


still think it needs lowered and a bit more oomph from the motor, maybe some carbon trim might help?
