Rated 2 out of 5 by JoJoJoJOJoJO from Needed technician to come out after 1 use I bought this dryer to replace my previous dryer of the same model. My previous dryer lasted 8 years with no issue. This new one had 1 use and then the next time i turned it on, it sounded like grating metal from the machine. A Simpson technician had to come out and fix loose parts in the machine. It makes me concerned that there will be future issues with this machine.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Raym from Only average The heating /drying seams to be a bit hit or miss . ie sometimes it does not heat.Did not realise on purchase that at the end of cycle Machine does not shut off , instead turned the clothes every so often

Rated 5 out of 5 by Markn from Awesome long life I bought this dryer solely because 37 years ago, my sister in law gave us a Simpson Dryer as a wedding gift. It died finally. There was no possibility or thought given to any other brand. They were there shiny and probably had flash features but I didn't care. I wanted a Simpson. One salesman even said "the replacement won't last as long" but I didn't care. Your name and reliability sold it. In this throw away world your employees proved they could build an awesome product once therefore the possibility of it happening again may be slim, but what the heck. I have told this story to everyone and continue to do so. You, whoever you are should be immensely proud of your team of 37 years ago. Some would say it's bad for the company bottom line to make a product last this long, but they're wrong. Keep the bean counters away from production. Keep building the best. I will look for the name from here on.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Cozz from Crap I've had this dryer for over 6 months and it's useless, it takes all day to dry and nothing ever ends up being dry. You put it on "extra dry" setting and it's still damp but it's been on for hours. I've never been so disappointed, Usually by the time a load is finished in the washing machine, the load in the dryer is also just about done. It's the worst money I've ever spent and I'll never buy another Simpson product after this. DO NOT BOTHER WITH THIS MACHINE. What a waste.

Rated 4 out of 5 by BullyBear from Good dryer, good price! Very happy with dryer. Dries a lot quicker than my old one. Dial doesn't line up with options, which is annoying but only to look at. Works great. It spins for 30 seconds one way, then stops and spins the other way for 30 seconds for the whole cycle. There is nothing in the instructions to say this is normal so I actually thought it was broken but the instructions says it's designed to spin both ways so I assuming this is ok. I tried to get through to customer service a couple of times to confirm but was on hold for a ridiculous amount of time so have up. Overall quite happy.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Karen 3006 from Very easy to use I have always had a simpson tumble dryer and this new one has lots of new features, such as sensor drying. The only thing I don't like is the fact that the timer doesn't count down when you select a 30/60/90 minute drying option.
