Q: QuestionCan you use a homemade detergent for this washer?

Asked 7 years ago by cMAND.

• A:Answer Hello cMAND, Thank you for reaching out and letting us know your inquiry about using a homemade detergent for this Samsung washer. We understand that this information may be essential for you. We're here to help. As per checking, your Washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents. Use high-efficiency detergents such as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE, or Gain HE*for best cleaning results. High-efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently, maximizing cleaning. Regular detergent is NOT recommended. Please use HE detergents only. For reference, please see page 26 to know more about the detergent use of this Samsung washer. https://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201904/20190416101808805/BETTER_WF42H5000-DC68-03397A-14_A2.pdf For other concerns, do not hesitate to reach out via our Support Channels below: 1.

Q: QuestionShould the debris filter slide out easily? As I turn it counterclockwise, it just clicks and keeps on turning.

Asked 7 years ago by Smiles.

Q: QuestionAfter more than a year of usage, the door is locked after running, only removing all water unlocks door again, is there a permanent solution or work around for this problem? Can BestBuy/Samsung provide support if the product is within two-three years?

Asked 8 years ago by Krishna.

• A:Answer Mine has this problem after 8 weeks, and the service dept. said it’s a control panel issue and not properly draining, you’ll need a tech to service it. If you’re outside of the 1 year warranty, good luck finding service, I can’t even get a tech show up after 2 weeks of trying. Horrible service. Just don’t purchase Samsung anymore.
