Q: Loud

A: Did you remove the shipping hardware from the back? 4 large bolts must be removed as stated in the manual.

Q: Can pods (detergent) be used in the Samsung front loader? It shows liquid or powder but does not mention pods.

A: I've been told that the plastic does not dissolve completely and clogs up the drains resulting in costly repairs.

Q: could I wash a queen size comforter?

A: Yes, the WF42H5000AW is actually large enough to fit a king size comforter, so your queen size comforters can fit. - Ms. Samsung

Q: How long does a normal load take to wash?

A: Quick wash is I think pretty close to 25 mins, and normal about 40 mins, and heavy is about an hour.

Q: Could I stack my old Duet Sport Dryer on top of this?

A: Yes. We stacked out Duet dryer on top of this Samsung dryer. The washer is larger but that is not a problem. You will have to buy the Samsung stacking kit as the Duet kit will not work.

Q: Power cord for washer

A: Hi Jpoole23602, Samsung Washing Machines do come with the power cord factory-installed. Thanks for the question, and for choosing Samsung! Ms. Samsung

Q: Does the washer come with the water lines

A: Hi Jacob, The WF42H5000AW comes with the water supply and drain hoses. Thanks for your interest, Ms. Samsung

    Love this washer

    I purchased the matching dryer about 4 months ago and I knew right away I had to have the washer. I LOVE THIS WASHER.. MY CLOTHES ARE CLEANER AND MY LOADS ARE LARGER !! Also, Best Buy was the only store out of 6 that had this delivered to me less than 24 hours after purchase, the other stores were going to be 4 days or more!! The delivery guys were super nice and very careful with my washer. Will definitely purchase more appliance's thru BEST BUY!! THANK YOU!!

    Good deal for a high efficiency washing machine

    I was a little worried when I bought this washing machine, to be honest. At only 4.2 cu ft, I wasn't sure if it was going to be big enough to wash a king size comforter but in fact it is just big enough. I've had these a couple of weeks now and ended up getting the pedestals recently which help to bring them up higher. This machine is so much quieter than my old top loader too. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and Best Buy delivered and hauled away my old one at no extra charge.

    Very different from my old one

    This is our very first front loading washer and I am still getting use to it lol. It works great, but is just so weird not to have to choose the water level or anything. It does it all for you. Our laundry comes out cleaner and spins out fantastic. I only have to use 1 detergent pod even in large loads. Everything comes out smelling nice and practically dry. It is no problem fitting large comforters in it with some room to spare.
