Voluntary Recall of Certain Top-Load Washers

The new Samsung front loader washer is just great so far...it's early and it spins the clothes so dry it cuts the time in the dryer by a whole lot. Good luck.

The Samsung Rebate is because of what I would label a major flaw and instead of explaining try YouTube Samsung Top Load Washer. That should explain everything.

There was a class action lawsuit concerning the front load appliances that finally settled and why i can't give you details I suspect like all class actions the big winners were the lawyers.

We had always been big Samsung supporters. all of our TV's are Samsung and all of our appliances are new Samsung models.

However given the bad news about their washers and then their cell phones we decided to avoid them for our recent purchase.

the fact is in today's market appliances regardless of brand don't seem to hold up like they use to. so we did our due diligence and our research indicated LG somewhere at the top and given the know problems with Samsung and the known problems with GE, etc we opted for LG washer top load dryer gas

Their likelihood of survival is about equal to ours so its a wash (pun intended)
