Why Get a Samsung Washer?

Once known primarily for its home electronics, Samsung is now a very recognizable name in the appliance market. Across its different types of appliances, Samsung combines modern technology with timeless innovation to provide the most convenient solutions and seamless user features. Samsung washers can take your laundry game to the next level with some of those advanced features, including:

  • Smart Care that uses special coding that your personal device can scan to identify issues.
  • Self Clean+ that helps eliminate 99% of bacteria that can form in the washer drum.
  • Super Speed washes a full load of laundry in 30 minutes.
  • Activewash built-in faucets on select Samsung top load washers give users a convenient spot to pre-treat clothes.
  • VRT Plus technology reduces noise and vibration for a very quiet operation.

More than just convenience, Samsung also offers powerful wash features like an ActiveWave Agitator that’s specially designed to reduce vibration and improve performance (for top load washers.) When it comes to front loaders, certain models include OptiWash, a smart washer feature that detects soil levels in the water and adjusts the cycle accordingly. And since a sanitary washer means a healthier home, select Samsung washers also come with Self Clean+ that will notify you every 40 wash cycles when it’s time for a cleaning.
