Hi Karen, we recommend the 'Quick Wash' for lightly soiled garments of less than 2 kg that you want to wash quickly. This option is available only when the COTTON cycle is selected. The cycle time is subject to change, depending on the detergent amount, water level, and contamination level of the load.

If it is only between the two models I would ask Samsung rather than hope for a specific answer from the public.

Hi there! Generally a full load wash will take about an hour depending on the exact wash cycle type you select. You can view the full support page and user manual for the AddWash on our website here: https://www.samsung.com/au/support/model/WW85K6410QX/SA/

Does it have both a cold and hot water inlet? Or does it only allow for self-heating the cold water? We have solar heated water, so want a machine that has a hot water inlet.

cold water only, heats itself. Hot and Cold is more common on a top loader then a front loader.
I have solar hot water too. wasted

What’s the best recommended spin speed for every clothes?

2 answers
smart customer
smart customer

Hi, I usually use 800 for spin speed and it works well with normal daily clothes.

Samsung
PhilSamsung

Hi there, thank you for your question. There are 11 different wash cycle on the machine, each cycle has a default spin speed programmed for the type of laundry which you can find more details on through the manual guide that comes with the unit. The general consesnsus is that, delicate and synthetic clothes are usually spun lower than 800rpm so there isn't a chance they get damaged, where as other types of clothes can be spun at a higher speed.

AddWash WW85K5410WW (White)

I have just purchased this machine and I am really disappointed. The clothes come out quite wet compared to the 7 year old Bosch front loader I just replaced even on the 1400 spin. The 800 spin cycle are so wet. Our Bosch was only up to 1000 and the clothes were much dryer. The clothes are also more wrinkled even when I remove them straight away. Just wondering if anyone else has found this or if I am doing anything wrong?

Hi can someone please confirm if WW85K54E0UW is now replacing WW85k5410WW/WW85K6410QX (sales guy said they are discontinued)? Also can anyone please help me measure the actual height of WW85K54E0UW if anyone has one at home please? It is advertised for 85cm height but sales guy insisted that it's actually smaller/shorter, my available space is only 85cm high so worried it may not fit. Thanks!

We just got this machine today, well i think the newest version. Samsung 8.5kg Front Load Washer
WW85K54E0UW

It is vibrating, walking and throwing itself around so bad its put a massive dent in the plaster wall behind it :( we have tried levelling legs, used a spirit level, and we have also done the recommended calibration and we are still having issues. Has this happened to anyone else??

Did you have a brick inside it?
Im actually surprised this is happening. Try a spin cycle without anything in the drum and if it shakes its obviously a warranty job, and repairs to your damaged wall are in order. Normally, all WM have protection, anti-shake sensors so if they get unstable the spin shuts off, or spins down.

No def not normal I have mine on tile floor. This machine never ever moves. The spin cycle is the fastest on 1400 and it stays steady in it's place never had an issue. Call them up coz that doesn't sound right can't believe if damaged your wall

Mine one also is on tiled floor and spins on 1400 rpm but never moves. You should get it checked under warranty.

I always use fabric softener so haven’t had that problem! You could try doing a drum clean cycle, and see if that helps?

Nic

I always use liquid detergent in mine and sometimes fabric softener. They come out smelling really nice. I think the detergent you use really makes a difference. I used to use a cheaper one and didn't get great results.

I had this issue too. I trial-and-error'd multiple detergents and found Cold Power to be the best at tackling the smell issue. I'll also add a cup of white vinegar to an extra dirty/ smelly load.

I see on the panel that the lowest temperature setting available is 20 celsius. Does that mean that the only cold wash cycle available is the 'intensive cold' cycle? How long does the intensive cold cycle take to complete?

Thanks in advance.

If you choose a cycle that automatically sets temperature you can just press the button until no temperature is selected. Some may not let you over ride but I use daily wash mostly and usually use cold water.

I have had this trouble initially when I did not take out the four carriage bolts from behind the machine. Was a terrible thing to do! They hold the internal barrel steady during transport. I hope you can solve your problem quickly.

Has anyone started to experience burning smell during the Cotton Cycle?
Our last 2 cotton cycle smelt burning whilst cycle was on and even the clothes were smelling afterward.

I have not experienced anything. Overloading the machine may cause the motor to run hot but I would be seriously concerned about any smell that represents the machine running as normal. Dont mess arround contact who you purchasrd the machine from and Samsung immediately. Dont risk further damage before it is checked out to avoid possibility of fire or damage not covered by warrantee.

Not with our machine. The DAVIDB covers it all.

Thanks, David the machine is definitely not overloaded max 5-6 kilos on a cotton load. The machine was purchased for Harvey Norman with extended warranty but is only 3 months old. never had an issue with cotton cycle before, all of sudden this smell... It smells like burning rubber, very similar to if burning electrical wires if you ever smelt it.
Surprisingly the "bedding" cycle has no issues at all.

Samsung advised not to use until technician checks it.

Btw.. when you say fire or damage not covered by warranty. Am I missing something? The machine is fairly new and we have 4 years extended warranty on top. Regardless we have warranty or not it should not cause a fire like previous models, LOL :)

It says you have next day deliveries but I can not seem to have a choice on the calendar that gives me 4 weeks wait time for delivery. How can I change this ?

2 answers
DAVIDB
DAVIDB

I think you will find the reason for the time frame wait is because it is currently out of stock. Next day delivery is dependant on availability and metro area. You should contact appliances online direct for product availability confirmation in your area. I found that once I had entered my area that a dialog box was visable to indicate what products were available for next day delivery. Check to see if the white Samsung washing machine ($100 cheaper) comes up as available for next day delivery this would confirm that the other model is out of stock for 4 weeks.

This product is available whether the white or inoc color is available globally. I did research online and found them in Samsung NZ website so it should be available in your country. Price range in NZ: white is 1298 NZD, Inox is 1698 NZD. https://m.pricespy.co.nz/category/513
You may want to check your local stores for deals :)

The unit comes with 2 years parts and labor but the digital inverter motor warranty (11years) only covers parts. ie. Parts only from 3rd to 11th year!. That's abit of a concern as i won't know what to do with a replacement motor! Can that be extended to include labour?

1 answer

You don't have to install the motor yourself, you pay a service repairer to do this. What they are saying is that if in the event the motor needs replacing, you only pay the repairer for the service call and labour to replace it !
