When you’re considering a household appliance purchase, you’re considering a major investment—an investment you want and need to last for a long time.
For dependable appliances you can rely on, and some of the neatest enhancements in the market, we recommend you take a close look at Samsung.
Yes, we’re talking about that Samsung. Not solely a purveyor of cutting-edge electronics and big TVs, Samsung has made a respectable name for itself in the household appliance marketplace. With downright cool features, highly efficient performance, and notable longevity, Samsung is a favorite and often recommended brand among the appliance experts at Albert Lee.
In this guide to shopping for Samsung household appliances, we’ll explore some of their kitchen and laundry offerings, proprietary features and tech, and even walk you through using our special Samsung online catalog.
Why Consider Samsung Home Appliances?
You’ve probably heard of Samsung.
They’ve made consumer electronics since the 1960s and have been producing washing machines and refrigerators since the ’70s. You may have owned a cell phone, PC or HDTV from Samsung, or even a VCR or air conditioning unit in the past; they’re a prolific brand and have been trusted market leaders for a long time!
While we don’t dabble in the aforementioned appliances, we are passionate about some of their other products—namely their fridges, dishwashers, microwaves, ovens, cooktops, washing machines, and dryers.
Samsung offers an impressive array of appliance features that are sure to give your kitchen or laundry room a sleek appearance—not to mention, they impressively perform endless functions.
Samsung Appliances
Samsung manufactures household appliances in the following categories:
Kitchen Suites and Single Appliances
If you are looking to reinvigorate the heart of your home with a complete makeover, there’s a good chance that Samsung could serve the exact look you’re going for in your kitchen.
Our Samsung kitchen packages bring a designer-inspired look to any space, and the dishwashers, refrigerators and freezers, microwaves and ranges we’ve expertly paired together are sure to deliver the performance you need and expect from your appliances.
Fingerprint-resistant, stainless-steel ranges and French door refrigerators with plenty of finish options will give your kitchen an everlasting gleam—even after the kiddos attempt to wreak havoc with their sticky little hands. In addition to form, Samsung appeals to function—high-tech features abound in their kitchen appliances.
From their industry-exclusive StormWash™ dishwasher feature (rendering soaking and pre-rinsing needless, even for pots and pans) to ovens with dual-convection cooking (which can shave 30% off your regular cook times), Samsung’s appliance features guarantee a relentlessly modern kitchen.
The brand’s proprietary refrigerator CoolSelect Pantry™ feature lets you choose your climate, with three temperature settings that chill or defrost your groceries. On some models, the CoolSelect Pantry becomes the CoolSelect Plus, a versatile extra compartment with four temperature settings!
Speaking of versatility, Samsung’s WiFi-connected smart Family Hub™ takes convenience to new heights. Fridges with Family Hub™ keep you connected to your loved ones and your routine and grant you more control of your kitchen via voice and touch screen controls.
The cutting edge and easy-to-use Family Hub™ lets you grocery shop and browse recipes on an integrated touch screen on the door, or if you’re at the grocery store, to check on the contents of your refrigerator. You can play music from apps, mirror your Samsung TV screen, manage calendars and to-do lists, and even receive your smart appliance notifications when a dishwasher or laundry load is done.
The benefits don’t stop there: Your laundry room has a lot to gain from a Samsung laundry pair.
Laundry Pairs
The beauty of a washer and dryer pair is, aside from the coordinated aesthetic or budget-friendly pricing, the features of one machine complement the features of the other. This means the time it takes you to figure out how your new machines work will be shorter, because they’ll function similarly and have alike interfaces.
Front-load bundles are stacked with steamy features like:
- Steam Sanitize+ to remove 99.9% of germs and bacteria, pollen and dust mites
- Multi-Steam to nix odors, static and wrinkles
- Steam wash cycles to nix both stains and the need to pre-treat them
Many Samsung laundry pairs are also Energy Star certified and Bixby enabled.
Bixby is Samsung’s virtual assistant who uses artificial intelligence (AI) to recommend the right cycle for your garments and tell you via smartphone notification when your cycle is complete.
Note: You’ll need to download an app and be connected to your home WiFi to engage with Bixby as you do chores.
With diligent features like these, you will not lose an ounce of momentum in your daily routine.
Picked by Our Experts: Featured Samsung Laundry Appliances
When it comes to optimizing quality and affordability, nobody does it like Samsung. To back our claim, here is a Samsung laundry set picked by our appliance experts.
Washer
Now, let us turn your attention to the brand’s Energy Star certified, hard-hitting 4.5-cubic-foot front-load washer, available in white (WF45R6100AW) or in champagne (WF45R6100AC).
Teeming with features like:
- Steam Wash cycle, for gentle and effective stain removal—without the need to pre-treat
- Closet-depth fit and a wider Swirl+ drum for a shallower footprint that doesn’t sacrifice any capacity
- VRT Plus™ technology for quieter operation with reduced vibration
- Smart Care troubleshooting, so you can avoid unnecessary service calls by running diagnostics from your smart phone
- And Self Clean+, which kills 99% of bacteria in your washer drum. Every 40 washes, Self Clean+ will remind you that it’s time to run this cycle (no cleaning tablets required!)
The features aren’t limited to the above five. This model is equipped with 10 wash cycles, including but not limited to:
- Sanitize
- Quick Wash
- Heavy Duty
- Bedding
- Permanent Press
- Delicates
In addition to those cycles, you can adjust settings to accommodate for your need to presoak, steam your garments, delay the end of the cycle, enable a child lock, spin the load again, and to connect with your smartphone. And with simple-to-use dispenser trays for detergent, bleach and softener, and a stunning ice-blue LED display, this machine will make every laundry day a breeze.
Dryer
Not to be left in the dust, Samsung’s capacious 7.5-cubic-foot front-load electric dryer does more than just zap the moisture from your clothes and look pretty, in either a white (DVE45R6100W) or champagne (DVE45R6100C) finish.
This Samsung dryer is built to perform and make your life easier. Sporting impressive features such as:
- Steam Sanitize+ to nix 100% of dust mites and 99.9% of germs, bacteria and pollen
- Multi-Steam to eliminate odors, static and wrinkles
- A reversible door so you don’t have to remodel your laundry room around the layout of your hook-ups
- Lint Filter Indicator, which saves you the annoyance of having to check the lint trap between each load
- Eco Dry setting for energy-efficient, Earth-friendly drying power
Not to be outdone by its washing-machine counterpart, this dryer offers 10 drying cycles including but not limited to:
- Steam Refresh
- Bedding
- Air Fluff
- Heavy Duty
- Delicates
- Quick Dry
With this dryer’s Wrinkle Prevent setting, you can afford to forget to fold your laundry right when the cycle ends! And as if that weren’t enough, this dryer’s interior capacity is large enough to fit a king-size comforter—and then some.
The features and operation of the DVE45R6100W and DVE45R6100C models pair beautifully and conveniently with the coordinating washers (WF45R6100AW & WF45R6100AC).
From the Smart Care troubleshooting for self-help diagnostics and solutions via your smartphone; to the Quick Wash and Quick Dry cycles; to the child locks; and the ability to turn the end-of-cycle musical alarm off and on, the usability and functionality of these machines complement the other to save you time and stress.
Samsung’s Flex Laundry Technology
Samsung’s knack for technological advances doesn’t stop at the tech featured in the aforementioned expert picks.
Another notable Samsung laundry system is their FlexWash™ and FlexDry™ units, which contain two washers or two dryers per machine and provide more capacity and flexibility than ever before--not to mention that they're real time savers.
A Samsung FlexWash™ washer gives you the freedom to wash separate loads at once or at different times. Set the appropriate cycle, keep your loads separated, and delight in the time you’ve saved.
Samsung FlexDry™ dryers are available in gas or electric and afford you the same laundry-day freedom the washers do. With a delicates dryer atop the machine and a conventional large-capacity drum in the usual spot, you can dry your everyday loads and those procrastination-inducing, flat-dry-only items you love to wear but hate to clean.
FlexWash™ and FlexDry™ machines are equipped with the standard Samsung benefits, like Energy Star certification, reversible dryer doors, WiFi connectivity, steam technology, gorgeous displays and fingerprint-resistant finishes, snag-free drums, Smart Care troubleshooting, and quiet operation.
