Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
I've been using simpson macines for 28 years. My first was bought while pregnant with my first of 4 kids. It lasted 17 years and didn't miss a beat. Same as my second which lasted 10. But this new one I've had 4 months. If i could replace it i would...

I purchased a Simpson SWT 801 in July 2012 and last week it fused for no apparent reason. I have been advised because the whole board needs replacing it will cost over $300 for replacement, without labour. This is a joke. I paid $757 for this machine...

Only had this washing machine for 2 yrs and now we have to buy a new one , it shakes uncontrollably, my husband has re balanced this machine a number of times, it has flooded our house on more than one occasion, beeps all the time throughout the wash,...
Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
I bought a Simpson as our previous 5.5kg model last years but upgraded because of size. We have owned this model without LCD for 6 years and had nothing but trouble. Throwing out alarms going off for no reason and the worst part is the design between...

Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
My machine still under warranty but broken twice now. Both times cycle didn't stop. First time fixed after 2 technician visits. Now waiting for 2nd repair. It looks this is going to happen again in future after the warranty. Even the problem has been...
Repeated malfunction even during the warranty period
Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
Have had this machine for 6 months now and have tried all the cycles to find one that suits. It spends more time letting water out and spinning than washing. I have to spend hours ironing each week, most times at midnight! I wish it would die now but...
Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
Water levels inadequate in most wash cycles, In the bedding cycling alone ( one set of queen sheets) I increase the water level to extra and still at end of cycle the sheets still have dry patches and left over residue or fluff. Dirt and grim still on...
Nothing
Virtually everything, this is not a good washing machine
Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
Received this machine Friday 1st November 2013, as a replacement from an extended warranty. I had no choice in the replacement. I was shocked when I read other reviews about this Simpson SWT801. I cannot believe the complaints about the water level. I...
Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
I bought the Simpson because I have always bought Simpsons and it seemed to get a good write up in Choice magazine. What a mistake. It doesn't fill up properly, it doesn't wash properly, the lid hinges are broken, and generally I am just very...
The brand - since completely disappointed.
Everything. Can't wash, doesn't even wet the washing items, gets off balance, won't remove stains, lid broke within months of owning it.
Consumer review (productreview.com.au)
I have never had such a time waster, now that I'm knowing it's not just me and there are others out there. This product is making my life hell, I have had to go back to hand washing as I can't afford another unit and I want my child and husband to look...
Nothing
Constantly unbalances, Doesn't fill to the top and can't really soak. I can't even use it to its full 8kg, I wouldn't go more then 3-4kg at one time. Almost Everything
