The delayed start and remaining time indication features are also advantages, making the operation of the appliance more convenient. However, the Smeg DHT81LUK has some drawbacks. Its noise level of 66 dB may be considered high in a quiet environment, and the lack of light inside the drum complicates retrieving clothes in low-light conditions.
