• and
• an air guidance system defining a closed air flow path extending from a first portion of the washing basket to a second portion of the washing basket, the air guidance system being connected to the washing basket in fluid communication therewith for receiving air in a first condition from the washing basket and for delivering air in a second condition, with the second condition being different from the first condition, from the guidance system to the washing basket;
• and at least one Peltier element operatively associated with the air guidance system and disposed within the closed air flow path in a manner wherein a cooling side of the Peltier element is disposed within the air flow path and is configured for removing heat energy from and thereby drying air in the first condition passing thereacross, and a second warming side of the Peltier element is disposed downstream of the first cooling side of the Peltier element in the closed air path for adding heat energy to the air dryed by the cooling side of the Peltier element passing thereacross resulting in air in the second condition for delivery to the washing basket.
