purchased through another store but feel compelled to warn. bought july 19,2020 delivery in august. one year two months later bearings went out. two months out of one year warranty and no compromise. had service come out through samsung. great service. 130.32 out of pocket for diagnostic, to know bearings are out (sounded like a helicopter taking off) needed new drum and back piece. couldn't find back piece out or no longer making. samsung was able to find.... so here i am 475 or so out of pocket for a repair. i see this is a big problem with this machine. never again!!!

was great while it worked, but suddenly it started to make a loud noice when spinning. broken bearing, more expensive to fix than to get a new one. sad to see a perfectly good looking machine end up in a landfield. would have been ok with there was any sort of warrantly offered on the very expensive repair.

2nd Samsung Washer Lasting Just 3 Years

decided to give samsung a second chance and bought a second washer after being in my brand new home just 5 1/2 years and the washer stopped spinning and displayed the 3e code which i've heard was quite common after researching. i reached out to samsung and spoke with overseas support who sounded as if i was the 32nd person that day with this same code and said it would cost $100 just to look at it as it was (conveniently for them) "just outside of the warranty period. the wait list was over 2 weeks long so bought a whirpool washer off facebook marketplace for less than one hundred dollars which, as it turns out, is now our "new" washing machine as (just like our first samsung washer) would cost over five hu

Terrible maintanence

the washer works fine... the issue is the maintanence. the debris filter is impossible to remove. you'll cut up your knuckles and have to use so much force pushing in then turning left that you'll break the housing unit for the debris filter. terrible filter. for that reason alone, avoid his model. you can do internet search for samsung debris filter can't remove or something along those lines... and see how much of a pain it is.

Don't do it!

there are barely enough words to describe the level of frustration, disappointment and time wasted on buying this washing machine. after multiple visits from a 3rd party contractor trying to fix the washing machine - after they identified significant internal damage...you would think that they would be able to fix the issues, and have a normal, relatively quite washing machine. clearly i was wrong. i am now out of warranty, and waiting for the day that my machine explodes, and i will buy a new one...not samsung!
