I can never understand why anyone would use a tumble dryer other than for towels...As you say bubbles its dried within an inch of its life and then people go and iron it putting moisture back into it....:rotfl::rotfl:

I use a drir in the winter but not dry with an inch of its life

:rotfl::rotfl: you nut job!
I prefer winter washing as gets dried in tumble, take out before completely whizz iron over hang on hangers jobs a good un:rotfl::rotfl: i cant get in a bed without sheets being ironed though:o

When I first started living with OH, I would iron bedding.... now I struggle to wash it (well I just remind OH that it is bed change day... if he was not reminded we would have the same bedding for years!).

I have huge pile of clothes that needs ironing... my approach to clothes is... does it need ironing:-

Yes - throw it in the loft.
No - order another three of them... and live in them until they totally die!

I have had people doing my ironing, but one emigrated to Australia whilst the other emigrated to New Zealand.....if only I could keep my staff :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: or teach OH how to iron!

I rang Tefal today about my new iron I bought at the weekend.
It's impossible to see the water level so you don't know if you are overfilling and you can't see if it's running out. The plastic is opaque.

Anyway I haven't been able to see it in the daylight but took it to work today so I could take a look at it. It's impossible to gauge.
The Tefal lady told me straight away that it's a design fault and they are sick of telling the factory about it:rotfl: She said if I ironed in daylight I should be alright:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: could i take it back and get a refund:mad:

You know when you can't be bothered:rotfl:

Personally I would email the CEO, as the response from customer service is not acceptable. http://www.!!!!!!!!!!!!!/s.php?id=ceo-81955&k=58754e64&c=Groupe%20SEB%20UK%20Limited%20Managing%20Director If they are aware of the fault, they should be offering a better solution than telling you to return it to the store for a refund.
I had a similar experience with a babylis hairdryer with a design fault and could not get an acceptable resolution from CS...the CEO however, arranged for me to be sent the most amazing, and expensive hairdryer...so it was well worth the email.
