Intelligently designed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the washer and dryer set and had a great experience during purchasing, delivery, and customer service from Best Buy. Pros- It has more bells and whistles than I really understood at first but it is intelligently designed to trouble shoot problems through both the wash and dry process. -It can detect if your load is unbalanced and correct it, sense the size of your load and the weight and redistribute it before washing. -Also both have child lock safely features (which I do not need anymore) but I appreciate the safety design as a parent. -There are safety features in the dryer that can detect faulty electrical connection and a blocked/ clogged dryer vent. -Both have a large capacity to wash and dry which is a plus but you can also do very small loads too. -I like the digital faceplate and lights that make it easier to read and know how much time is left for each load. -If you don’t like the musical tone you can deactivate it. -Allows you to deactivate the child lock and add clothing after you start load. -Less soap is required than I have previously used in other washers. -The store associates really knew their product and explained the many features as well as the pros and cons for each model I was considering. -Delivery was on time and well managed. Nothing was damaged and they delivered upstairs to my laundry room. Wore masks and were polite. -Overall it washes and dries about the same quality as my former cheaper W/D but the features make it a lot more convenient to customize my laundry for the appropriate setting needed and allows for bigger capacity loads. -Dryer door can be changed to open on either side. Instructions included on how to do it in the manual. They charge $50 to do it for you (and it is still probably worth it to avoid the hassle) but I did it myself. -Lint trap catcher allows for easier removal of lint than other types of dryers. Cons- You basically need to read the entire manual to use correctly. -The slanted dryer top does not allow for putting things like a basket or folding clothes on top. -They say “fingerprint resistant” but that includes the sides of the machine-not the top area where you constantly touch. -Top areas of both washer and dryer scratch easily from normal use. -Surprisingly tangles loads pretty well in the washer without an agitator. -Dryer will detect items are dry and turn off even if it is a wadded ball of sheets and the inside is still wet. You have to keep unwadding and restarting to finish drying. -Static cling attracts all the lint to the top/sides of the machines. -Would not recommend this washer for anyone shorter than 5’4” as it takes a serious nose-dive to empty out the wash basin. A step stool would be helpful or even necessary otherwise.

Fast and big washer, 2 thumbs up
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great washer. It has plenty of bells and whistles, plus it works like a champ. It can hold a lot of clothes and handles the bigger loads no problem. I replaced my older front load LG washer (which was a lot smaller, and broke after five years) and plan on buying the matching dryer this year as well. Very pleased with this washer. I would recommend to others. FYI, I have only used this for a month. You can still tell it’s a quality washer, but things eventually have issues. I will write an update at six months.

Washer is nice but not delivered with care.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife and I were excited for our new washer. Ordered online and received it promptly. Unfortunately for us, i didn't know I had to remove the old washer so the guys that were going to install didn't. It was easy to install thankfully,but as I was leveling out the washer I noticed a dent on the side,which put a gap on top of the washer under lid. It doesn't affect performance thankfully. Other than that the experience was nice and I recommend it. Just inspect it beforehand so you're not surprised. Also the claim I did was really easy and they agreed to reimburse me within 14 days which it has been a bit over 3 weeks now. So again just be cautions and patient.

Excellent washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced my 3.5 cubic LG front loader with this Samsung washer. I hated the mold that grew in the front loader and it always had a smell to it no matter much I cleaned it. I am so happy I got this washer. It is so much bigger. It doesn’t smell and clothes come and very clean. I also like active water jet feature. Nice upgrade. Lots of bells and whistles without going overboard.

Water Jet is life!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I’ve only had this washing machine for a few days but I absolutely love it! My favorite feature is the water jet feature that allows you to pre-treat clothes. So when I need to pay special attention to armpit areas or a particular stain, I can do that right from this washing machine. A little back story. We bought an LG back in 2015, it clunked out on us in August. We got an open box Maytag and immediately noticed the same day it wasn’t agitating. Went back and bought a new Maytag and the agitator stopped working exactly 2 weeks after purchasing. I was hot! School was starting and we are a family of 6. I saw this one and exchanged it. Back to the washer. I have caught up on 12 loads of clothes and they are clean and exactly what I expect out of a washer. It can handle heavy items like blankets and jeans with no problem. The tune that plays at the end to let you know that it’s complete is just an added bonus. I posted on Facebook, about my happiness when the washer was delivered. A school friend replied that she bought the same set and she loves it as well. I hope that this continues to work as expected for many years.

Excellent Washing Machine
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We recently purchased a new home, and we needed a washer and dryer; we settled on the Samsung 5.0 cu.ft. models, and we weren't disappointed. There are options for any sort of load that you need to do, and the settings are highly customizable if there isn't a particular set that fits your needs. The operation is simple, the installation is easy, and the cycles are very quiet. It is a little on the expensive side, but it is well worth it.

Save your money this thing can't do your laundry.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washer looks fancy and has huge capacity, but that all goes for nothing when it doesn't wash the clothes you put in it. That washer DOES NOT have the ability to pull the actual clothes under the water. They just sit on top of the water with an air bubble in them and get half washed. The wimpy jets and weak churning motion of the tub does nothing to actually pull the clothes under the water to wash them. VERY Disappointed in this washer for $800 it should be able to wash one jacket or small throw blanket. Unfortunately, it cannot. I tried all different cycles and even put it on deep water setting for one jacket and wasted a ton of water just to see if it would submerge and wash the coat. NOPE! Attached a GIF of the washer cycling with jacket just sitting on top doing nothing. This was on a Heavy Wash cycle with deep fill option selected. It was only ONE coat in washer, this washer just cant do it. Horrible.

Posted .Hi there,
Congratulations on your new Samsung Washer. I see you have a few concerns and I would like to make sure that you are getting the best performance from your machine. See link below: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01108627/
Thank you for choosing Samsung. ^Brad
Q: QuestionNone of the links provided by the Samsung Ambassador work, can anyone offer info on the water levels? I need a new washer and would prefer a top loader but am concerned that the newer HE models do not use enough water to get clothes clean.
Asked by CT74.
- A:Answer I just purchased the washer/dryer set and was also looking for one that has a full water level. I am very happy with it, there is a deep fill option that fills the water to the top so that heavily soiled clothes get clean. In order for the deep fill option to work it has to be on certain cycles (heavy, colors) it does not work on a normal wash cycle. This is a great choice if you are looking for a deep fill option.

Q: QuestionIs there a lid lock mechanism that will prevent me from adding clothes to my wash after the cycle starts.
Asked by Maintainer.
- A:Answer There is a pause button that stops the washer and unlocks the lid to allow adding what you need. Once the lid is closed and pause button resumed it relocks the lid and continues wash.
Answered by EdTX
Q: QuestionDoes this machine control water level by clothes weight? I mean how the machine determine the water level? I need to wash very small volume sometimes in this huge machine.
Asked by Ivy.
- A:Answer The machine does have sensors in it to control water level. I've used it to run single items through and it has no problem using a minimum amount of water while still getting things clean. Works great when you need to wash things like pillows or blankets. Even works on stuffed animals.

Q: QuestionHello, What additional parts/connections/etc. do I need to purchase in order to install this washer? What additional items should I purchase to install this washer? Hoses, Lines, etc.? Thank you, Jonathan
Asked by JMA.
- A:Answer I purchased: Smart Choice - 6' Stainless-Steel Washing Machine Fill Hose (2-Pack) Model:5305516562 SKU:5446387. However, if you buy the matching dryer with the steam option you will need an additional fill hose.

Q: QuestionTwo questions. Someone said that it leaves white marks on black and blue clothing. Why, what causes it, and why would you buy something that would do that? Second question, what is the manufactures warranty?
Asked by Patchez.
- A:Answer I read those reviews as well but decided to take a chance. I’m glad I did. Since buying it in 5/20/20 we have done about 30 loads with no white marks. Most of my clothes are black dress slacks and a variation of black blouses. No spots on any of those and none on jeans (we have both blue and black jeans). I’m assuming the reviews were because of a wrong type of soap maybe or overloading the soap dish - not sure. We have had nothing but great results and are very happy with our purchase.
