Samsung WF50A8600AE 5.0 Cu. Ft. Extra-Large Capacity Front Load Washer - Ivory

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded my washer after 10 years with a previous front-loader. At the time, I thought that one was state of the art. This is definitely state of the art. I am a huge fan of the Smart Things integration as well as the multiple features it includes including steam washing, workout apparel settings, and even synching with the Dryer to automatically select the correct setting based on what you chose for the washer. The spacious washer has cleaned many large loads with ease, including blankets, pool towels, etc. The washer does an awesome job spinning out as much water as possible so the dryer can do its job. I love the speed was setting as well. A small load for my kids can go in and out of both the washer and dryer in under an hour, and I have used it a lot. I know a lot of washers coming out have a larger tray to put lots of detergent - I would have liked that feature here, but it's not a huge deal to do it for each load. The color and size both are appealing and fit nicely in my laundry room. The larger lint trap is also a great feature so I don't have to do that regularly and the machine tells me when it needs to be cleaned. Definitely a big upgrade.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't use the washer as often as my wife. In case of emergency and I need something washed last minute then it's up to me to get it done. The Samsung washer was easy to maneuver considering that I don't use it everyday. I was able to choose an appropriate function for my work clothes, even for my sons soccer uniforms. My favorite is the Activewear function as well as the Superspeed wash function. I wait for last minute to get things done and these two functions get the job done. Very functional and easy to use. The washer is very roomy and quiet. The only time I hear it is when it is filling with water and when it's done. The laundry detergent dispenser is my favorite. Everything is labeled and easy access for dads.
