Happy & sane

published

This machine has saved my sanity after the last machine made clothes dirtier than what they were before they were washed as it had no lint filters, this machine has 2 lint filters & they work well. It's nice & quiet, easy to use & produces clean clothes, so all in all I'm happy with it.

Nice Machine, Not Just At MASTERS

published

Good do far

published

I just got mine on Thursday from Betta Home Living. Good Guys have them also or can get them if not displayed. Small physical size for the kilo rating. The pipe out the side is the new modern way as the new laundry troughs accept pipes into the side and all the taps are located inside the trough cabinet. No more ugly taps and pipes above your washer anymore.

WARNING- Make Sure You Have Room For The Drain Outlet

published

Brilliant

published

I'm speechless at how good this product really is. it surpasses all other products in my opinion. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.
Water level can be adjusted from extremely low to very high. It spins so quietly that it cannot be heard unless you are near it, never goes out of balance, except for one time when we washed several towel ls with sheets.
The two large lint filters very efficiently remove all lint and are very easy to clean.
The tub clean warning indicator is great, but it can be fooled, we had to stop using fabric softened and switch to a good quality liquid detergent, otherwise it indicated tub needed cleaning after a couple of washes.

Reliable And Efficient Machine

published

This machine is great! I had a front loader which was killing my back being so low on the ground, this machine saves my back and delivers a clean load every time, real value for my money, great warranty, decent size. Does what it's supposed to and good solid construction. Well worth the purchase.

One great Washine Machine

published

Bought this for my mother (who's in her 70s). She insisted in getting a top loader as she feels she cannot bend down comfortably if we got her a front loader. Bought this in March this year.

This machine hasn't disappointed since getting it. It has double lint filters which work really well and with the controls at the front of the machine, it is easy for my mother to comfortably access the controls. The glass top is a welcome touch.

I'm also surprised how quiet the machine is and if placed well in your laundry, it is well balance smooth when on spin cycle.

My mother loves her hew WM and this validates my decision to get her a Samsung WM despite the major recall issue plaguing Samsung at the moment with one of their WM models.

Awesome machine: love love love it

published

I've only had it for a week, after my old 6.5kg Simpson died after 15 years. Chose this one for the price, I'm on a tight budget. Got this under $600 from 2nds World - it was a display model and came without a box. Was a tad worried due to the bad press re: Samsung washers igniting. Bought it online, delivered and installed the very next day - 10/10 for 2nds World.

It is massive, I wash every other day. Large loads mostly for a family of 4. Clothes come out squeaky clean, ultra dry...probably because of the air turbo dry option. It's super quiet, simple to operate, lots of wash cycles to choose from....and it sings you a tune at the end of the cycle..lol

It's only early days - but I am super duper happy at the moment.

Happy Customer

published

We have this washing machine since early June15 and so far we are very happy with it. The clothes have no lints on it and they are quite dry after the wash. The fuzzy cycle may be too strong for some clothes so I may need to adjust to different cycle .The clothes do tangle when I use the fuzzy cycle but compares my old Hoover it is much better.

Needs service technician, and Samsung are trying to get out of paying for it, even though still under warranty. Samsung is the culprit trying to get out of repairing

Samsung WA85F7S6

published

Have owned for 3 months now.
Washes clothes very well.
Very quiet operation.
Good range of cycles, although fuzzy is the main option for us.
Doesnt take too long to complete a wash.
Spin drys well, even though its not as fast as other machines.
For me, having a bit of a mechanical background, the machine sounds no different in its operation from light loads, through to the heaviest of loads. This points to adequate design and engineering.
Electronics, who knows? Time will tell with this.
So far, so good!
Mike.

Great machine and super quite

published

All good washes really well and is super quite compared to my old Fisher and Paykel. Great looking machine probably a bit big for my needs as you can put so much into it. Looks like I only need to do 1 load a week. Great price as $645 from Bing Lee @ Fairfield West.

Excellent Product. Our clothes have never been cleaner.

published

We purchased one of these machines after our front loader Electrolux died and we are absolutely wrapped with this machine. The clothes come out much softer and cleaner and there are loads of wash options. I would highly recommend.
