Mr_GTI 0 Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 I take it the stuff you put in was tumble dryer safe? If so you need to get that machine checked over, last thing you what is a burnt down house, Typically its just coming up to a year old when the warrenty runs out and the machine goes bang :S Link to post Share on other sites
