Rated 5 out of 5 by Victor from Just what I look for in a dryer I bought this a month ago. It has a huge drum which easily accommodated the largest thing I can think of drying, i.e. a king-size comforter, and dried it thoroughly. Doesn't steam up my laundry, so airflow is better than my old dryer. Controls are easy to understand - 1 simple selector dial, and 1 on button. Lint filter is tucked into the bottom frame and takes seconds to pull out and clean. Sensor stops load when dry or at dryness setting chosen. Reverse tumbler during drying stops tangling. And continues even after completion at intervals in case you've forgotten the load, preventing creasing. Quick, quiet, and chime on completion. What more could I want?

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sonja from Solid Basic Dryer - Good Value I have had this dryer for a few weeks now and am very happy with it. It is big enough for a family of five and is simple to use, quiet and dries efficiently. It is solidly constructed and the only weak point that I can forsee is the little clip on the door that locks in to the main body of the machine when the door is shut. It is a little stiff so you have to open and close it quite firmly. The dial to set the dry time has different tones as you turn it for the dry times and OFF and so would be fairly easy to use for the visually impaired. Overall, a good machine for the price.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Nicp from Less than four months old and the belt has broken I bought this less than four months ago and it started making a thumping noise and stopped spinning. Got technician out and he says the belt is worn and about to snap and it had come off. I have to wait another week or so to get it fixed. I had my last dryer for 8 years and still it never wore the belt. Obviously this is a cheaply made model. Don’t buy it. I’m not that happy with the dryer on a whole and to be needing a new belt already I’m not holding my breath that it will last long at all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Suzyhen from So simple to use Bought this after having a laundry full of wet washing that I couldn’t hang out due to weather, it is a dream! Select ‘cupboard’ as drying option and it does what it says, so can put clothes away. Also very quiet

Rated 5 out of 5 by 490092 from Reliable with the right extras I have had my Simpson around a month and have used it quite constantly. It takes a little working out as to how long to dry the more delicate things, but that is a small issue. I love the reverse tumble, nothing gets tied in knots (as my last did). It has a decent size door and front filter (which I find hard to remove so I leave it a bit loose now and that works), timed as well as programmed options. Quiet, efficient, good beep to let you know it has finished. Very happy so far!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tegan from Amazing Absolutely love this dryer. I had one previously that left so much condensation on my floors it looked like I had squirted water on the floor. The Simpson dryer does not do that, depending on the weather maybe slight condensation on the walls but never on the floors. Love the feature of having the ducting coming out either the front or back. Very quiet to run and dries clothes good. We are a family of 6 and this size dryer is perfect. Very happy.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Sandy from Happy I recently replaced a condenser dryer with the Simpson vented dryer. I am happy with it as it dries towels etc. thoroughly, unlike the condenser dryer which was very hit and miss, but the only downside is that it causes a lot of condensation on the laundry walls even with the window open, so it really does require a venting kit to avoid this.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JamesN from Useful features I’ve had this dryer for over a month now and have found it to be excellent. It can take big loads (e.g. two queen sheets) without just turning everything into a ball with the outside dry and everything in the middle still damp. The automatic drying settings work well, only running the cycle until the clothes are dry. Definitely would recommend!
