    Before someone asks… only their top loaders have exploded so far… but would you really risk it?

      I purchased a Samsung front loader four years ago. Still runs fine, has not burned down my house. I would happily risk it again.

        My Samsung frontloader has been working fine for nearly 9 years. No fires to speak of.

    I got this one too…a couple months ago, negotiated $1250 delivered at HV and Samsung had $200 cash back at the time… its all about the haggle…

      it's all about the fire suppression system you have in your laundry ;)

    • metalhead on 05/11/2016 - 20:00

      Hi bowtiehoon, could you please tell me if this particular model has two water inlet valves at the back (ie one for cold water and one for hot water) ?

      I had a look through the user manual on the samsung website, but its very vague, doesnt confirm if there is two inlet valves.

      Also if possible , could you please look at the energy sticker on the front and post up the energy consumption (for cold wash and warm wash) and also the water consumption please ?

      Just wanting to compare it to our current Samsung 7.5kg washer, quite happy with its performance, only looking at upgrading because its a bit too small for our family. We do far too many loads a week i reckon.

        i upgraded from the a 7.5kg too, capacity wise this ones great…i would have gone a 15kg one if i had the space but this one is the biggest I could find based on the dimensions…

        The one i got came directly from Samsung on back order, has only 1 cold water inlet. which sucks because a normal cotton wash on a full load takes over 4 hrs!
        a cold water only wash takes a more reasonable 2 hrs, which is what we mostly use.

        energy rating 4 stars, cold water 235kwh, warm 425kwh per year.

        Now that I've used it a bit, would I make the same decision?…probably, but only due to the capacity and dimensions of the thing…the 4 hr+ wash cycle is a bit of a bummer, but at least I can control it and check how much time left on phone I guess…

        • metalhead on 06/11/2016 - 02:42

          thank you very much for your feedback.

          4 hrs for a warm wash is certainly a bit of a bummer.

          I dont understand why the manufacturers have gone to cold only inlets (cold only inlet on my current 7.5kg Samsung washing machine, but the one i had years ago, a Fisher & Paykal 7 kg toploader had both cold + hot inlets).

          I figure their logic is kind of ensuring the temperature of a wash set is then completely controlled by the washing machine (by internally heating up the water to the set temp) and not using water from a potentially dodgy home water heater.

          However when it ends up making washes longer by hours and a higher electricity bill, it doesn't really make sense.

  • niner on 05/11/2016 - 13:15

    Samsung front loaders are great!

    Top loaders are a bit of a hit and miss.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/11/2016 - 15:52

      Yeah. It they hit, there's nothing left to wash.

    will this one catch fire as well? Samsung seems to have an affinity for fire!

      REad the fscking thread before posting!!!! their front-loaders are fine.
      Though for this price you could get a couple of smaller ones. It's ideal for large families who live in small apartments.

        For how long? Samsung have a history of making products that catch fire and their fixes for these are below par. Their fix for the models in Australia that caught fire was so poor that they have to go back and perform a proper fix.

    mod, please delete, doubled up on the comment. sorry.

    We have this machine purchased from the good guys for $1250 and got the $200 back from Samsung plus a free queen size sheet set from the good guys. We went for this one because of the size our last machine was 7.5kg and the different is HUGE! I put it on overnight or when heading out so the time a load takes doesn't matter to much to me. The spin cycle is much better than on my old machine so clothes come out drier and therefore dry quicker a bonus in the winter months however they are also more crushed meaning some things never requiring ironing (like my work polo shirts) now require a quick press. Overall very happy with the machine thus far and was really happy with the price we paid with the bonus deals it was a good buy.

  • llama on 07/11/2016 - 00:55

    A standard 7kg or 8kg top loader will have larger real-world capacity than this, wash in about 1/3 the time, and cost about 1/2 the price.

    You will be able to soak your clothes if you like, and you can add clothes halfway through the wash.

    You'll be able to connect it to your hot water tap so it can do cheap warm washes, rather than using huge amounts of electricity at 35c per kWh to heat cold water like this thing.

    You will be able to operate it without having to lean down to load and unload the washer.

    OMG, the top loader will use a little bit more water… but who cares?

    I've just gone back to Top Loader from a Front Loader, and it's amazing how much better it is to use, and how much faster it washes. And the clothes seem heaps cleaner too, probably due to me adding a 30 min soak which increases the washing time for a full load to about 80 mins.

    • metalhead on 07/11/2016 - 09:49

      I wonder how these front loaders that cost $1299+ plus whatever cost of running for almost 4 hrs for a load of washing compares in real world terms to a big top loader.

      I did a quick comparison to a Samsung 13 kg top loader (washing capacity 10kg) and from what i can gather the difference in water usage is not much (95l front loader vs 102l top loader), energy consumption 235 cold/425 warm kwhr (front loader) vs 150 cold/604!! warm (front loader).

      Im guessing the top loader heats the water up as well. But 604kwhr is a big jump.

        But 604kwhr is a big jump

        Not really, the jump is only 604 - 425 = 179 kWh = $62.65 per year @ 35c/kWh. However that is not the actual increase in cost at all…

        I just checked the Standard AS/NZS 2040.1, and I THINK that I have understood it correctly…

        The Energy Rating is based on a WARM wash only. The washer need not have an inbuilt heater, and if there is a hot water connection then they base it on that, not using any inbuilt heater.

        The "energy use" of the hot water is misleadingly reported based on the embodied energy of that water if it was heated electrically. The nominal inlet temperatures for the tests are 60°C Hot and 20°C Cold.

        The formula for Hot water kWh per annum is Hot Water Litres [TIMES] °C Rise > 20°C [DIVIDED BY] 860. Since the inlet temperature is fixed at 60°, that simplifies to Hot Water Litres [DIVIDED BY] 21.5 = kWh per load. Yearly kWh on the label is based on 365 washes per year.

        Which can be incredibly misleading because most people have off peak electric HWS, or are using gas HWS. So the "cost" of that hot water usage is not the same as the cost to actually run the machine eg: cold water loads. Thus the kWh on the Energy Rating Label won't equate to an direct kWh cost like I mentioned in the first paragraph above.
