Great DryerA wonderful dryer!
My dryer, which would have been 30 years old, suddenly passed away, peacefully, at home, full of clothes :(
Every replacement I looked at was an amazing mix of settings and powers and lots of buttons and selections and all I wanted was a dryer that worked on hot or warm and with a timer.
Just as a dryer should be...
Just like the old boy...
This is THE ONE!
Just select hot or warm and turn the dial to how long you want it to dry for. Somewhat better than my old mate because the filter is a simple thing under the door that is easy to remove and clean and it does a minute drying one way and then a minute the other to reduce wrinkes.
So easy to use and the perfect dryer for me.
Great price, great delivery to the door and in this weather he's a Godsend.
Love him to bits

Great choice, easy to use.Great dryer, I was concerned that it had a warm and cool switch, but no hot like the old Simpson I had. It seems to be just as good as hot, don't know how. It swaps direction every few minutes to prevent tangling which is great. A great simple design, which is hard to find. My only criticism is that of all dryers, none have an easy ability to install castor wheels, I wish they did. I checked them all out underneath and none did. I preferred wheeling my old dryer out to balcony, but this one is very quiet.

An exact replacement for the Simpson eziloader 4kgAbsolutely identified in operation to the Simpson eziloader 4kg that it's replacing.
Same physical dimensions, slightly rounded styling up front, even the drum, lint filter and operation are completely identical.

New Plymouth Review[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new Westinghouse Dryer is very quiet.... our old F&P was very noisy by comparison.. It has taken us a while to get used to the manual settings for time, as the F&P used a humid sensor to determine when the clothes were dry, this model relies on us humans to determine when the clothes should be dry, fair bit of guess work required, there is also a two way switch which allow us humans to determine if the tempwerature should be hot or just warm for drying.. more guess work, but not withstanding these short falls an excellent dryer. very efficieent in the venting and fluff filter works fine..

Affordable and user-friendly dryer!Had this for some weeks now, and couldn't be happier with the purchase. A great dryer compared to some of the more high-end expensive products on the market. I love this dryer because:
~ It didn't cost the earth. Affordable piece of whitegoods that does exactly what it is meant to do.
~ Easy to operate with a turn dial and two settings with the flip of a switch - no LED displays or dozen different settings to confuse. Less chance of anything breaking down.
~ WHISPER QUIET when operating and barely know it is running.
~ Large door to get laundry in and out of.
~ Easy-access lint filter.
