Product Highlights
Effective Dries: Say goodbye to laundry day woes and hello to perfectly dry clothes with the Westinghouse 5.5kg Vented Dryer. This appliance features Sensory Dry technology, which brilliantly detects residual moisture on clothes and automatically stops when the ideal dryness level is reached. This effectively protects your clothes against over-drying and saves energy in the long run, as it only uses the precise amount of power needed for any load size.
Flip and Fluff: Enjoy even drying performance without tangling, as this Westinghouse Timer Dryer incorporates a Reverse Tumbling Action that alternates between clockwise and anti-clockwise. It also boasts a time-drying function that lets you set the program duration according to your needs.
Superb Results: During the final drying cycle, the Auto Cool Down feature minimises creases, so your clothes are ready to wear as soon as they come out of the dryer.
Breezy Operations: Easily adjust settings according to your needs, thanks to the machine’s built-in rotary dial controls. In addition, it utilises a front lint filter to ensure smooth operations.
Flexible Setup: You can conveniently place this dryer anywhere in your laundry area or mount it to your walls to maximise space*. It also offers flexible venting options (front or rear) to suit your ideal setup.
*Supports wall mounting using the ULX101 Universal Stacking Kit, sold separately.

Great affordable dryer with good featuresWe had to replace our old trusty 4kg Simpson dryer that died after well over 10 yrs of service. we selected this with its slightly increased capacity but mainly for its sensor technology.
Good looking unit, works well, very happy with it!

Reliable workhorse from a reputable Australian manufacturer[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our old vented clothes dryer died when our electrician was around installing lights but he said there was little chance of finding spare parts for that model. He recommended we buy a Westinghouse or Electrolux replacement as both well built Australian brands and ones that he can easily source parts for in the future if required.Did some research online and this came up trumps and at an affordable price. Does the job well and as we have solar on the roof not concerned at the relatively high energy use as we run it during the day.

Quiet, Affordable and Reliable[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I decided to buy a dryer, I knew I wanted a product with an excellent track record of reliability and affordability. The plus is that Westinghouse still manufactures some of its products and parts in Australia, which was a big deal for me. I have a few appliances by Westinghouse, and they have been amazing. I have a family of 5, and the dryer dries the clothes in no time. It has multiple features to choose from, and I love the iron option. If you are looking for a reliable, affordable brand, Westinghouse is it.

Efficient and good value[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing I do when needing to purchase a new appliance for home is to check out the Choice website. This dryer received the highest rating for non-heat pump clothes dryers in their 2025 reviews, and was considerably cheaper than the heat pump dryers. For our purposes of mainly using it to dry sheets, towels and occasionally jeans it's good value and does its tasks fine. It has a variety of drying options which I like and it dries even heavy bath sheets first go, no need to extend the drying time. We also find it fairly quiet. We didn't need to have it mounted on the wall as it's in our garage. Overall we're very pleased with our purchase which is efficient and good value.
