Yup thats the other beauty of FL's they should be able to take a doona (providing the size )

[*charmalea*]

it was a single size .. i dont think it will take my king size and you can cram in loads of towells with out them spinning around the agitatior ... and they never go off balance

Yep, avoid central pillar agitators in TLs.... that takes up way too much room. Our LG TL doesn't have a pillar agitator which is one of the reasons we chose it. DH still has a tendency to stuff too much into it Can't stand that... it defeats the purpose, you can't expect a good result if you overfill it.... the clothes have to be able to move to clean.

Like the sound of condenser dryers too Cai. We rarely use our dryer... like you said, ridiculously expensive to use... I don't know how people afford it when they use dryers exclusively ie never line dry and I find they kinda wreck your clothing if you use them too much.
