OH talker me into getting one of these instead of a vented one but I find that the fluff ens up all round the house. Is this right?

no. Something must be wrong. I got no fluff in the room. Make sure you do the regular cleaning via the instructions

you mean the fluff ends up round the house with a condensor one?

I have a condenser and no extra fluff around the house. A lot more condensation though!

I clean it regularly. It has done this ever since we got it (not a year yet). To be honest I am thinking of getting rid of it and getting a vented one. At the moment it is in the spare bedroom and I close the door when it's in use so it is more or less just that room which is getting covered in fluff (not exaggerating). Do you think there is something wrong with it? Must admit that cos it's done it from the beginning I never thought maybe it wasn't normal. It's a known make (can't remember what off the top of my head and too lazy at moment to go and look!!!).

I use it a lot at the moment as I can't stand having washing all round the house

definately shouldn't be doing that ,if it's not even a year old I would be contacting the people you bought it from and get them to check it out under the 12 month guarantee

Yes there is something wrong with it, phone up manufacturor as its still under warranty, it should not be doing this

I have one and will replace it with a vented one when it dies. I do not get fluff every where, but you get steam/condensation in the room. Read some where that they produce 2/3rds of the condensation as a normal one- so 1/3 still about.

Also having to empty the water tray and fluff filter thing all the time is a pain.
Also think they cost more to run than a normal one, but might be wrong.

Had mine in the dining room but moved it to the garage as was fed up with the steam.

Thanks for all your replies. Will get on to the manufacturer. Have just looked and it is Hoover.
