The self-cleaning condenser on the T1 Classic range is genuinely effective, but it is calibrated for typical domestic lint loads. Households drying large volumes of towels, pet bedding or fleece regularly will outpace it on a TCB130 WP, and the machine will need manual attention despite the feature. Knowing that the self-clean is a helper rather than a guarantee sets realistic expectations and prevents a lot of disappointment.
