Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by Eddie from Seems great for 88 year olds Winter is falling on the ACT and we are hesitant to use the steps to our Hills Hoist when they are ice covered. We have never owned a dryer before and we are surprised at the ease of use of the Simpson 5.5 kg model. It works well and, to our surprise, appears to be no way less efficient than natural sunshine and wind. There is one adverse comment to make :- the instruction booklet is too small for older people to read and we had to enlarge each page to A4 size. Suggest this should be the minimum size for all instruction manuals.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Erin from Great easy-to-use dryer Really happy with this dryer so far. It's fairly quiet compared to other dryers we've had before, and the 30 minute cycle seems to do the job to dry most loads.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JVDR from Great value Great dryer for the price. Good capacity and quite quiet to run. The included template made wall mounting quite simple. The front face plate has the controls written in both directions so that they can be read when dryer placed on the floor or flipped for wall mounting. Very happy with the unit so far.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Peter from Great features Easy to load and unload and it works upside down alright and if you put on an exhaust tube not only quite but less heat and dust.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Pengaani from Love this dryer I have had this dryer since January. It dries my clothes in like an hour compared to my washer/dryer combo that can take 5 hours all up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cassy from Going great so far! I ordered this clothes dryer 3 weeks ago and I personally think it's a bit too soon to give a good review but so far, so good. This is my first clothes dryer. My husband persuaded me to get one after the birth of our 5th baby, to make our big laundry loads easier to keep on top of and it's definitely helped a lot. It's a great size, easy to use and I now couldn't live without it!

Rated 2 out of 5 by FrankT from Progress...backwards!! This is partly my fault for not doing enough research. We had a Simpson dryer for around 15 years. We were happy with its performance, so when it died recently, I went out and bought another Simpson, based on load size. We were gobsmacked to find there is no sensor in the machine,. With the old unit, we loaded it and turned it on, and when it had dried the clothes, it turned off and told us. With the "modern" machine, we have to select a programme, and check the clothes when the programme ends to see if the job is done. If not, guess an additional time period and try again. What a crock! We never even considered that Simpson would reduce amenity and efficiency to this extent, and manufacture a product which appears inferior to one produced over a decade ago. We are so impressed with this "advance" in technology, we haven't bothered to use the machine. I'm trying to decide who I dislike enough to send it to as a gift.
