About Samsung Washers

Samsung washers offer a variety of features to make cleaning your clothes simple, fast and energy-efficient.

Samsung washers are available as 2-in-1, front-load and top-load models. The company offers several colors, including white, champagne-colored or fingerprint-resistant black stainless steel. Samsung washers are available online and at major retailers and home improvement stores, including Best Buy, Home Depot, Lowe’s and Sears.

Available features and functions include:

  • FlexWash
  • AddWash
  • activewash
  • Steam-washing technology
  • ENERGY STAR-certified
  • Wi-Fi connectivity
  • Vibration-reduction technology
  • Super speed

Each Samsung washing machine includes several settings for water temperature, cycle length, spin speed and soil levels. Some Samsung washers can be paired with Alexa or Google Assistant to let you control the appliance remotely.

To care for your Samsung washer, be sure to use the right detergent, avoid overloading the washer and move clean clothes from the washer as soon as the cycle is complete.

Samsung washing machine price

Samsung washers start at $600 and can cost up to $1,900. Front-load washers cost more than top-load washers, and adding certain features, such as Wi-Fi capability or vibration-reduction technology, increases the final cost of the appliance. Samsung has sales throughout the year and frequently offers free shipping on its products. Financing is available for qualified buyers.

Samsung Washers FAQ

How long do Samsung washing machines last?

With proper maintenance, a Samsung washing machine can last up to 15 years. Washing machines that are used more frequently than average, however, may not last as long as expected.

What Samsung washers have been recalled?

Samsung recalled 34 models of high-efficiency, top-loading washers sold between March 2011 and November 2016. You can view a full list of the affected models and what to do next on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s website.

How long is the Samsung washing machine warranty?

Samsung includes a 24-month warranty on all washers. You can also purchase an extended warranty that covers the repair or replacement of your appliance for an additional one to five years.

How does Samsung front load washer work?

Front-load washers fill the bottom of the inner tub with water and use the side paddles and rotational spinning to lift the clothes in and out of the water, which removes dirt and stains from fabric. Many people prefer front-load washers, though they do tend to be heavier, noisier and more expensive.

Are Samsung Washers good?

The features and functions of Samsung washers make the company a popular choice in the industry. With options to pretreat, steam and speed wash clothes, you can spend less time doing laundry. A limited number of Samsung washing machine models have been recalled, but overall, we recommend Samsung washers because they are energy-efficient, reliable and can last up to 15 years.

    I’ve purchased the top line Samsung front load washer and dryer. Worst money I have ever spent. Washer has to be cleaned constantly due to MOLD!! Smells awful!! Wish I never purchased these. Dryer has already had the mother board replaced, took two weeks. I PURCHASED 1 YEAR AGO!!!! My girlfriend has a GE stackable front loaders, never had had to run a cleaning cycle. I have to run mine every week and it still smells, tried bleach wash, no help.

    I am just ok with my Samsung washer/dryer. I have 2 separate sets with the oldest being about 10 years old and the other 8 years old. Upon reading these reviews I do need to comment that we did have the rust issue. Looked exactly like the pictures posted here. Samsung came out and replaced the pieces that were rusting. The annoying thing being that the new parts are not the same color white as the original washer so I have 2 different colors going on with the washer. The washer also becomes unbalanced all the time as other reviewers have mentioned. It then starts to add more water, one load can end up taking 2 hours. So they are not the best and seeing all the same issues I have I can see it is a common issue with these machines. I would not purchase again but can deal with until these are done.

      If I could give no stars I would. I cannot recommend enough AGAINST buying this washer. It is absolutely the worst washer I have ever owned in my entire life. It is constantly "unbalanced." The washer has been leveled, I have reset the washer, every trick to try and balance this washer. Little loads, big loads, it is constantly unbalanced. Then when it senses that is is "unbalanced" the washer adds more water to even try and even it out. It will do that for an additional hour before it stops and starts beeping at you. So you have to sit by and watch each load of laundry you do, or it will never finish. Then you still end up with dripping wet clothes. DO NOT BUY A SAMSUNG WASHER!!

      The washer does not add enough water to wash your clothes properly. Sometimes there isn’t even half the Water needed to complete a load. It’s very disappointing to wait for the entire load to finish only to find out that everything on top is still dry and has never even been touched by water..

      I just purchased a new Samsung Washer and dryer and the washer leaves soap scum on my clothes so had to turn it rinse 3 times which I do not find effect for water use because I live on a farm and haul water. I have a upgraded water system with filters and pressure pumps and dishwasher shower, etc. Have more than enough pressure. No lack, almost too much pressure. The dryer takes at least 3 drying cycles to almost dry clothes. I have run dryer empty for a few minutes, opened door and not even hot. Bad results for upgraded high efficiency appliances.

      Samsung says I have to hire a electrician and a plumber to make sure my services are adequate to run appliances. Have had a washer and dryer for several years with no issues with adequate power or water pressure. They refuse to have them serviced until they receive a report from a licensed plumber and electrician. Have asked a manager to contact me. NO call back 3 times now.

      I have owned the new set for a few weeks now and no effort to help with the issues, just excuses that it is my house's services. They were going to send someone until I have a land location for farm, not a physical street address. That's when all the excuses and added requirements started. It's my soap. Sent picture and use from tide acceptable for high efficient washer and checked Samsung website also acceptable detergent for my washer. Dryer 220, dryer plug acceptable for dryer but needs testing but works properly for other appliances. Believe me I checked. Just overall bad customer support. No returned phone calls and get hung up on when I ask for a manager.

      Samsung is not a good washer at all. 120 days in now and it's throwing error codes and stops washing as it begins to spin. Costco refuses to take it back and Samsung will only send someone out to console me. I had to dry my clothes soaking wet or rewash them after clearing the error code. The error code turned out to be of an unbalanced load. I wash with only one half load. This is unacceptable. This washer is only good for washing light loads such as underwear. If you want to move up to towels or garments, my suggestion is NOT to purchase Samsung. I have the 5.5 top mount impeller washer. I do NOT recommend this product.

      I would not recommend Samsung washer….I purchased a new Samsung washer and dryer and then after 3 years the washer is having problems with the spinning cycle. Whenever it spins, it is banging from side to side and get a UB error, then it goes to pour water in and wets up the clothes all over again and cannot spin to, leaving the clothes soaking wet. Save your money and look at another, more reliable brand. If the model is WA50A5400A. After 3 years the washer is no longer working.

      I purchased my washer in the spring of 2015. The plastic part that covers the bolt in the center of the wash tub broke within the year, called Samsung voiced my concerns was told I would receive a call the following day, still have not received that call. Then in 2017 I purchased a Samsung dishwasher, not knowing the problems I was going to be having later. In 2019, both my washer and my dishwasher started to rust, the dishwasher started first and it was just one of the posts which had been bent so I figured that was the problem, no biggie, right, WRONG! After that, all the wheels on the bottom basket started to rust and fall off then more of the posts and the sides on the baskets. Then the washer started, first around where the door hinges are, then the softener and detergent compartment, and then all around the bleach fill area.

      So in 2021 once again I call Samsung to tell them what the problem is, told the first person was asked to hold and was transferred to someone else, told them the problem and once again they took my information and I was told that I would receive a call the following day and I am still waiting on that call. I feel that my clothes should be cleaner when they come out, however, they are not because of all the rust and debris going into it during the wash. So now I am back to washing dishes by hand and I am having to wash each load of laundry twice and wash the washing machine in between loads. Laundry should not take this much effort. I personally will never buy another Samsung product.

      The Samsung Smart Care VRT Plus is the absolute worst product. The washer has very loud operating cycles and the washer doesn't fill according to the size of the load so all of the clothes don't get wet/clean.

      Samsung front load doesn’t get even the smallest loads completely wet. I have resorted to adding about 20 litres of water to most loads through the soap dispenser. I don’t want to have to do 5 loads when one should do. Electricity is expensive here.
