According to the Amazon product perfomances are in the model at this time (January 2015) to an outdated model. Production was discontinued product by Samsung, according to the Amazon. The machine came with Hermes by telephone appointment on time at the site. For a supplement of 15 euros takes Amazon with the old unit, for an additional 11 Euro offers on Amazon, join the washing machine. We have decided that we do for the objectification of the recession, this itself. With the manual setting up the washing machine, the removal of the transit bolts and connect without problems are feasible.
Equipment and technical details
The washing machine has energy efficiency class A +++, which is currently well under to beat. The maximum spin speed for a cotton wash 60 degrees at 1600 revolutions / minute. The airborne noise emissions during washing is 52 dB and the spin at 76dB. What does that mean? Quite simply, when compared with older machines, this is really quiet. A maximum of eight kilos laundry can be loaded into the washing machine drum, but the laundry creases then pretty, but this is normal. 8 kilos, there may be only if it is cotton. Easy-care laundry would only record up to 3.5 KG, the machine for the reason I Refill the machine not to the brim. The washing machine has a full water stop, a child safety lock, a surge protector, a Umwuchtkontrolle and self-cleaning filter. Everything was great helpers that make the subject washing safer and a little easier.
The washing machine has a VRT Plus technology, ie the drum to be balanced using a vibration sensor. It has a digital inverter motor, which is reportedly extremely durable.
Washing
The drum is illuminated by LED technology from the inside, which looks really cool. The interest to the kitchen maid perhaps not particularly, I finds chic. Filling with detergent is simple, the detergent compartment is large enough well öffnenund. It should be emphasized that an insert for liquid detergent is supplied.
By Programmwahldrehrad the programs can be adjusted. There are 12 basic programs plus additional options. One of these options is active foam for cold wash program. Washing powder is used in the program option foam Active before the flushing dissolve into the drum which is designed to improve the washing tissue distribution of detergent and penetration. Also works really well. Next additional options are Eco Wash "Silent Wash" and Speed Wash.
The following special programs are available: Saving energy, Outdoor, stains, wool, linen and dark jeans.
The provided short description in the manual is clear, so that the machine is easy to operate. The program for the drum cleaning makes the drum clean clear. According to the manufacturer of lime and detergent residues are removed. The drum should be a special care drum which little strain on the fibers. This should come particularly during outdoor clothing advantage. I have three washes with winter clothes our children washed (trade ticket). Since the hoods of the jackets have remained clean, I will not in the wash to compare before and after. All spots (sand and mud) are well gone out in the program Outdoor. The color and the textile structure have not changed. A direct spin program no longer exists. The direct spin can be adjusted more complicated than options. An individual program can not be saved. Overall, I am satisfied with the result for washing cotton, wool and delicate, long-term experiences are of course not before now.
Others
There is an app for Android and iOS, with which you can read error codes of the machine. Here will then be given by reading the code by camera concrete action points. I can not vote for this feature, because the machine has fortunately been displayed no mistake. Would be even nicer ;-)
Service and Repair:
If you already had in my life one way or another washing machine in his possession, now has two small children and always a huge mountain laundry next to the professional life is an addition to saving energy and clean linen, a most important: The washing machine must be running and is not short go defective after the manufacturer's warranty. I have since may collect as my negative experience with another Asian manufacturer ...
Samsung is on its homepage for household appliances to a warranty of twelve or twenty-four months against defects in materials and workmanship. Through Amazon this warranty may be extended by 1-3 years by relatively high costs.
In the manual a 0180 service number for 20 cents per minute is given. The hotline for defective washing machines is described by users as a rather sluggish. For a device for about 1,000 euros ex-factory price I think this is not good. Just a washing machine must just work, so that neither man, woman nor the children have to walk around as the Schlunze. The thing has to run and if something happens, the repair must be conducted immediately. Supposedly it takes up to four weeks at Samsung until a service technician will be displayed. Not good. It's amazing that Samsung the luxury of a fee-based hotline begrudge, since you can only like this when something is wrong with the machine.
My conclusion: the machine is smart (keyword: LED), efficient and quiet. In addition, she washes the offered laundry thoroughly and gently. Setting indivudueller programs is difficult to get a saving of own programs is not possible.
An assessment of the long-term quality of course I can only give when the time comes. For the paid Hotline and the poor customer service described by others, I prefer from a star.
In a machine in the upper price range, I would expect more on the service side.
There is therefore in my rating: 4 stars.
If there is something nachzutragen, so I'll do that here.
If you liked the review, please now press useful. If not, please ask the question that has remained unanswered.
Thank you!
