Q: My current Samsung washer and dryer play a happy tune at the end of the cycle. Does this one?

A: Yes. They both play the same tune my -2 year old set played.

Q: The washer works with Alexa?

A: Great question, Maryfe! While this washer is able to connect with other smart home products, we are only able to guarantee full functionality with other Samsung products. If you have additional questions about the smart features, I recommend reaching out to our dedicated SmartThings team by calling 866-813-2404. ^Jecca

Q: can the doors be switched to open on the other side?

A: Great to hear your question, Kimmie. You can't change the direction of the washing machine door, just the dryer door. Have a great day. Melardo

Q: How much space do you need to leave for hoses etc behind the washer. I am asking because it is 2 inches deeper than the 4.5 cu ft. model. Thanks.

A: Hi Steve, We are glad to hear that you are interested in our Samsung washer. We are happy to help with the connection dimension of this washer.

Q: What size drain pan can I purchase for this washing machine.

A: Hello there. Glad you asked about the washer's size of a drain pan. A drip pan, also known as a drain pan, is required when the washing machine is not installed on the ground floor of your home. We recommend low-profile drip pans for front-load washing machines because they allow access to the pump filter (which requires routine cleaning). Certain models (such as the WA54R7200 series) may require the drip pan's bulge to be less than 5/8 inches. You can find drip pans on Amazon. Please see the list below for the dimensions of our current models. 27 inches (D) x 24 inches (W) 32 inches (D) x 27 inches (W) 33 inches (D) x 27 inches (W) 34 inches (D) x 30 inches (W) Thank you for being a valued customer of Samsung. Have a great day. ^Camille

Q: Hello. When looking at the back of the washer, what side is the hose on and how long is it? Thanks in advance :)

A: Hose is on the right side if looking at the rear and at least 6' long. Left side if looking from front to rear. Quality hose and bracket to hold it in the drain.

Q: what is the motor size in terms of strendth?

A: Hi, rob. Glad you asked about the washer's motor strength. If you mean the RPM of the motor, it would be 1300 rpm for the spin revolution. Thank you for being a valued customer of Samsung. Have a great day. ^Camille
