When I bought my £1200 Dyson Washing machine 8 years ago the company was shouting from the rooftops that it would LAST FOR 20 YEARS. The faults started almost strait away and it was twice exchanged for drum bearing faults.
Since then it has had a further 3 drums and various other parts costing me nearly £300 in repairs from Dyson.
It is once again broken and since I am just outside the 12 month repair warranty Dyson do not want to know. I am told that they no longer have any new parts for this machine and that they cannot repair the bearings any longer.
I could have bought a brand new mid range washing machine EVERY YEAR for the amount that I have spent at Dyson. This company has GONE TO THE DOGS, they have sacked all of their best engineers and do not care about their customers which in reality was their only strong point. Even the vacuum cleaners are now OLD HAT and you can buy better vacs for a fraction of the price. Shame on you DYSON.

I bougt my Dyson CRO1 in 2002, which cost me over £1000, i have had nothing but problems with it, the problems started 2 weeks after the 2 years guarantee had run out. The engineer has been out on countless occasions. In October i paid £95 for a service, all was ok until April when the problems started. The lastest was yesterday, when i was told the bearings have gone and they no longer repair it as they are unable to get parts because they are no longer making them. I was offered ...- Read Kayla67's review (128 words)

The Dyson CRO1 washing machine has a great load capacity - I used to have to do a load a day (2 person household) with my old washer, with the CR01 this is down to 3 loads a week! Now we have a young baby we're up to 4-5 loads a week, I'd expect to be doing 8-10 in my old washer. Clothes come out looking and feeling cleaner and dryer and take less time in the tumble dryer despite my last washer being a 1600 spin and the Dyson only being a 1400.Dyson service - it's a fixed price repair for the ma ...- Read AlexV's review (375 words)

Our Dyson CRO1 broke down at the end of November. Engineer came and said that it cannot be fixed due to there being on spares for it. My wife is upset to say the least. We will miss this machine very much.- Read G R Evans's review (42 words)

Clothes washed with the Dyson CRO1 seem much cleaner than before, lower temperatures too. Best machine I've ever had. Shame they've stopped making it.- Read Guest's review (46 words)

Very dissapointed after paying £1000 on the reliability of my Dyson CRO1; has had 6 major faults in under 7 year and now will not repair free is quite old but they said tested to 20 years have said engineer may waive the fee but it is a chance i take on another 95 if he charges me.- Read Guest's review (63 words)

I bought my Dyson when they first came onto the market paid £1100 think that was in 2002. I've never had a days worry or an engineer to visit. I loved the innovative mechanical genius that went into the making of it and as I had back problems it was set up on a plinth. This also helped access to the hoses but they havent been a problem.
Its only in the last few months that the drum made a terrible grating sound and then spat out an almost whole credit card. unfortunately the rest must be ...- Read hellsgrannie's review (330 words)

I bought my Dyson CR01 six years ago.When it was 12 months old it developed a fault with the bearings, dyson replaced the machine without question.In 2005 i received a phone call from Dyson customer service stating that they were offering upgrades to the older CR01 models that would give them the improved capability of the newer designs (hardware and software upgrades). I was initially skeptical, but when I asked what the charge would be they stated it was a free service; true enough the upgrad ...- Read bigjd66's review (191 words)

This machine has iconic classic looks from the outset but it's not just a pretty face; its functionality is phenomenal. It's a machine that works as beautifully as it looks. I bought my Dyson CR01 nearly 7 years ago. It developed a problem after 5 years of use. The problem it had was it started leaking water from underneath the machine. I called Dyson and the engineers replaced an outlet tube that was punctured. No charge was made. The machine then developed a fault with the drums. Again I call ...- Read eyeno's review (392 words)

What a waste of money this machine has been. Within 12 months of purchasing it I noticed small holes in lots of our clothes, I realised it was the machine causing the damage when I put a brand new top in to wash and it came out with 3 holes. Dyson tried to say it was bra wires causing the damage, until I pointed out I handwash my bras. They then suggested it was moths, until I pointed out moths don't eat synthetic fibres! They eventually changed the drum - guess what! 12months on and the holes a ...- Read booster's review (234 words and 2 comments)

Although Dyson don't make the CRO1 any more they still service them which is just as well as it breaks down thoroughly every 6 months or so. However, although it has taken up to 2 weeks for an engineer to come out they haven't yet charged and have replaced lots of bits.
They were way too expensive when they came out and the engineer said the colours weren't popular or they would have done better - On balance I still wish we hadn't bought one as there are more reliable and effective models out t ...- Read AnnB's review (113 words)

My Dyson CRO1 washing machine was bought in preference to a Miele with a 10 year guarantee. Obviously given with some confidence. The Dyson serviceability has been dreadful. 3 inner door handles, one new outer door, several leaks, one complete new drum assembly and another awaited. My last washing machine lasted 18 years, with 13 house moves, and it only needed a new set of motor brushes.
The Dyson is a triumph of style over substance. Well, reliability at least. When working it's bril ...- Read paulowen's review (110 words)

I adore my Dyson CR01, it does what every other machine I have had has failed to do, large loads and 1400 spin. The coin trap is invaluable to me. Yet, I have had the engineer out at least 5 times (nice man though) and had to have my original CR01 replaced and there was a fault that could not be fixed. The one I have got now has suffered a cracked inside door (probably from doing a hot wash so the man presumed) and lcd screen was becoming unreadable. Extended guarantee is £99 a year, cheap ...- Read sandy75's review (280 words)

I purchased the first model of Dyson washing machine (Dyson CRO1), since then I have had the engineer out to it five times out of five years, each time it has been the gear box at fault, preventing the machine from spinning. £1,100 is a lot of money to pay for a continually faulty washer!
Though I must say, the engineers are very good.- Read keyhole kate's review (72 words)
