So very happy with my new Samsung washer!

I upgraded from a ten-year-old, basic washer to my new Samsung Top Load Washer a few weeks ago...and couldn't be happier! We wash several loads of laundry daily, and the biggest differences for me are the strength of the agitation and how much dryer the clothes are after the spin cycle. This cuts down on the amount of time clothes are in the dryer. Between the Samsung being much better on electricity/energy usage and how dry my clothes are at the end of the spin cycle, I'm saving money on my electric bill...something I very much appreciate! The only drawback, and this is more for my Mom, who is 5'6" and in her 70's...is she doesn't like having to reach down so far into the washer to pull laundry out.. I'm 5'8" and didn't see this as an issue...but never thought to consider how Mom would use the washer. If someone is shorter than 5'6", they definitely ought to reach in to make sure they can reach the bottom of the washer without straining too much. All in all, I'm very happy with my purchase and happily recommend this model Samsung washer!

I think these newer top load washers need to be more specific on who can use these comfortably- I will not recommend this washer to anyone under 5'-4" tall. Even after standing on a step my husband built, I still have trouble reaching the clothes on the bottom. I now must use an extension grabber to remove clothes from this washer! The control panel is easy to understand and operate, it has 4 water levels and one automatic level. The noise level is nice and low, and it spins nearly all the water out of clothes making drying time less. I can tell it spins hard because my fabric softener sprays up on the bottom of the lid, it may be hard to see but I have shared a picture. The fabric softener dispenser is old school and expels the liquid using centrifugal force vs a water rinsed tray that comes with other models. Some of the liquid remains and this cup will need to be cleaned often. This model also has no liquid detergent dispenser so you just pout the laundry detergent right on top of the clothes. While I appreciate the child lock feather, it would be nice to be able to manually override it, for some simple pre-washing while the drum is filling. I know this was a feature on one of the models and I thought that was one I had ordered. This is a great get-it-done, no frills washer and I think would be great for large loads of dirty work clothes. I think this washer will be easier to keep cleaner than my old front load with that big gasket that was a mess to keep clean.

So I got my washer and the install process was pretty seamless. I had wanted to keep my dryer from my stackable but they said that it was not possible so I was like ok I guess I need to get a new dryer anyway. He tested it and ran a quick cycle I guess to rinse the dirt out or any dust. The next day I was ready to do my first wash. I went online to get an idea of what the different cycles were. The controls could have been a little more intuitive. I do appreciate how much bigger this is than my stackable. It is super quiet and I wasn't sure it was going to clean but by in large it did a really good job. Since I have gotten my washer I have been able to try out a couple of different settings. I don't know if I would definitely call it a soft close lid, but by in large it has been a really great experience. I would say that the gentle setting is my favorite because often the gentle setting is too gentle and it does not get the things done that it needs to . In terms of my three favorite features, I like the quietness of the machine, I like the auto sensing of balance and load size, and I like the notification when loads are done. I would say my least favorite feature is that I cannot let the washer load and the water to fill up. The water will only fill with the lid locked and closed.

this washer has an end of cycle alarm that cannot be silenced, not good for sleeping family members. it spends way too much time trying to figure out what to do with the laundry rather than washing it. maybe 15% of the time it just sits there trying to analyze the wash. when i want hot water to wash and disinfect clothes for work i don’t need the washer to tell me that i should be using warm water. as others have observed, if you want hot water you have to turn off the cold water supply. unlike traditional agitators that twist back and forth to break down soil, the active agitator moves with the wash basket making it essentially useless. there is little if any traditional washer agitation. if you are washing lightly soiled or delicate clothes this washer will be perfect for you.
