I purchased this machine second hand just over 3 years ago for $150 (it was about 2 years old a the time so total age is approx. 5 years). It hasn't skipped a beat and is the perfect size for a couple. Despite being a 50 L machine it is very roomy (perhaps due to the unobtrusive rotator design).

All you need to do is turn it on and press go, the machine works out how much water it needs and adjusts the time accordingly - perfect. There are plenty of other programs and adjustments if you want to do quick or delicate load etc.... and it is si...Read more

We bought this top loader washing machine (SW50USP) after our NEC machine had broken. The machine broken two weeks ago because the valve became rustic and water leak to the Control Board. Control Board somehow didn't give signal so it didn't wash, Cold Water wouldn't get into the machine. End up repairer suggest us get a new one, the repair may cost the same as the new one.

we bought another one and this time we go for European brand. we only have tiny space to fit the washing machine by the time I thought we don't have too much option. Now...Read more

I had one of these machines and it worked fabulously, then it started to show black bits of something all over the clothes when the cycle finished, despite me cleaning the filter each time. I put in a service call and told them the issue, can't remember what I was told, but it was a tale of spin. Because I was happy with the rest of its operation and assuming it was a one iff issue, I tossed this and bought another one the same. After some use, same thing, spitting out black bits of something all over the clothes. Also about every fourth wash o...Read more

In 18 years My Simpson Delta 422 never required any service. It was however, showing symptoms of fatigue. Poor thing. I replaced it with a Samsung SW50USP thinking that if I got half of 18 years I would be doing alright. However, within 2 weeks I returned it to the supplier. It emitted a very loud bang when I manually changed water temperatures, as well as, during a full automatic cycle. Perhaps water pressure or valve related I considered this to be a serious mechanical problem. Apparently, this problem has been identified in other models, yet...Read more

I would have been really,really happy with this machine ( would have given it 5 starts) if it was not for a known fault - It started leaking water within 6 months and the repairman said it was a known fault - They advised me to only turn the taps only a little bit. I think he replaced the hot water inlet valve, which was inside the machine and he said it was a known fault. I have been really careful with the taps being hardly opened but after only a few months,the machine has started leaking water sometimes. Looks like I will have to get it re...Read more

I recommend this little washing machine for small households (we are 3 adults)- we have had ours for 4-5 months and have been very happy with it. Hopefully it continues to please.
I have the 5 kilo version of this machine and have been delighted with it, it washes well, the lint trap works very well and it has this happy little tune it plays when it's finished, makes me laugh every time I hear it. It also has a large capacity, lets you know if it is overfull, and the turbo dry does really get the things close to dry. It took our queen size quil...Read more
