RE: Feedback on Samsung 4.5 Cu. Ft. Front Load Washer and dryer

If you’re considering the Samsung models also check out the Sears Kenmore Elite models which are built for them by Samsung. We got the 263 649 308 4.0 cu ft model (Canadian #) in the Blue Silver color. It is based on the Samsung 218/219 model with extra features (a diamond drum, 1300rpm withVRT, small items “catch basket” and a front drain hose). It also has side handles . . . really nice to help put in place when the fit is tight . . . these are very heavy machines (maybe all FL are????). It has a very good energy rating . . . in the top third of machines I believe and very simple to use.

We are very happy with the performance. A much better job than the Whirlpool top loader it replaced. I would recommend using about 60% of the recommended amount of HE powder and simply white vinegar for the rinse.

Also check out the “appliance” section of this forum. . . . Good discussion on Samsung and other makes.
