The Creda Electra 37290 tumble dryer gently tumbles clothes in a large drum while providing a steady stream of warm air into the drum. This process is very similar to a standard clothes dryer, but the construction of the tumble dryer differs from today's units. For example, the dryer vent, which filters mist air away from the clothes, mounts to the door of the unit. Due to it's age and the lack of features found in newer dryers, the instructions for using the Creda Electra dryer are straightforward.
