The Gold Standard in Washing Machines
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This is the gold standard in washing machines- it’s features can be programmed perfectly for the ultimate in function and convenience. The app shows me where in the cycle the wash currently is while also alerting me when the cycle is finished. If you’ve purchased the matching dryer, they will communicate with each other to set the dryer to the perfect settings for the type of wash cycle completed. It’s like controlling a spaceship.

Nice machine, please use cutters and not channel l
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.I had a Samsung washing machine for over 10 years. Naturally once that machine needed upwards of $900 in repairs it was a no brainer to stay with Samsung. The first machine that was delivered leaked all over my basement. I thought I'd have to fight tooth and nail to get a replacement, but Donna was so accommodating and apologetic. She immediately set me up for a pick up and delivery of a brand new machine the same week. We have had no issues with the new machine for four weeks now. The problem I had was with both deliveries. On both occasions the delivery guys messed up my waste pipe by using channel locks to rip off the zip tie that had been put there to hold the hose in place. I had to replace the pipe (not really a big deal, but it shouldn't have happened once, let alone both times.)

Works fantastic!
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.We are very pleased with the performance of this machine so far. Admittedly, we haven’t owned it long. Our previous Samsung washer gave out after about 7 years and the cost for repair was more than the cost for a new one. Here’s hoping we have better luck with this one!
