      It’s funny because I love my Samsung washer and dryer and I didn’t even buy them new. Now, granted, it is actually the second washer and third dryer after a quick succession of failures with buying used, but once I found the good ones I was set. I am now 6 years strong on them and the total cost was still significantly less than buying new.

      My only complaint it the washer door seal molding and no easy way to replace it, so you have to deep clean it every 6 months to a year. Otherwise the only maintenance is standard ‘de-scale and odor eliminator’ packets.

        I’m happy you got a good batch. My sister’s owned two of them, against my advice, and they’ve both been shit-heaps. On the first, the transmission went out after a couple of years, and it was cheaper to replace it than repair.

        On the second, it would get off balance during the spin cycle. I replaced the suspension dampers and less than 2 years later, it’s starting to do it again.

        Everything else I’ve bought from them is great.

          I have a set. Bought before my dad said I should avoid them. But I haven’t had any issues aside from the dryer making a weird sound for a short period of time then never happening again. They’re almost 3 years old currently.
