Buying a new washing machine? Make sure it has these essential features

Whitegoods are a big purchase, so it pays to be informed.

Buying a new washing machine? Make sure it has these essential features
Supplied

Investing in a new washing machine might seem like a pricey endeavour, but if you choose wisely it could save you a pretty penny (and time) in the long run.

How? The latest innovative smart machines use advanced technology features to save us time, keep our clothes and linens in pristine condition for longer, and use less energy and water – which is good for both your power bill and the environment.

Samsung’s new 8.5kg front Load Smart Washer does all this and more; it lightens the load in more ways than one. Here, the smarter essential features to ask for – plus, why they’re helpful:

AI control and dryer pairing

Great for: Easy washing and drying

Powered by AI control, the intuitive system remembers your habits so it can suggest cycles, display information and even select the perfect wash cycle for your load. You can also use the SmartThings app to see advice on cycles, plan ahead and troubleshoot. Plus if you pair a Samsung washer with its matching dryer, SmartThings will also sync drying settings to complement the wash cycle.

Hygiene steam cycle

Great for: Allergy sufferers and better hygiene

If you have family members with allergies or asthma, the Hygiene Steam Cycle delivers a hygienic deep clean, removing up to 99.9% of common bacteria and allergens from every wash.

AddWash door

Great for: Adding one more sock/pillow slip/knickers to the load

How many times have you put on a load of washing only to find a stray sock or tea towel left behind? The AddWash door is the simple hack for the Samsung front loaders that caters for the forgetful – allowing you to easily add items and fabric softener into the wash after the cycle has started.

Generous 8.5kg drum

Great for: Saving time and reducing the amount of loads you do

The generous drum size makes it easier to wash the whole family’s laundry/bedding in just one load. Plus, the speedy spin means you’ll no longer have soggy, sopping clothes at the end of a wash, requiring an extra spin cycle or leaving water over the floor. Using four different sensors, the Samsung 8.5kg front Load Smart Washer determines the optimum amount of water, detergent and rinsing time and does its job perfectly every time.

Multiple wash programs

Great for: Delicates, sports gear, wool, bedding, blankets…

With 22 cycles to choose from, there’s a wash program to suit every occasion. Whether you’re washing towels, bath mats, quilts, denim, back packs, or those finer items that require special TLC, the tech-savvy cycles remain tough on dirt and easy on clothes. For quick results, the Super Speed cycle easily washes loads up to 5kg in just 39 minutes. You can even wash while you sleep or when you don’t want to disturb family members with the Silent Wash cycle.

Digital Inverter Motor

Great for: Saving money and water usage

As well as expertly cleaning your laundry, the Samsung 8.5kg front Load Smart Washer reduces water and energy usage. How? Samsung’s AddWash Front-Loader Washers feature a Digital Inverter Motor, which delivers superior energy efficiency (plus minimal noise and long-lasting performance).

Drum Clean+ function

Great for: Minimal hands-on cleaning

Most washing machines build up dirt and some even leave sticky residue on your clothes. Not this one. The Drum Clean+ function removes all those icky bits, meaning your machine will stay crystal clean and operational for years to come.

Hygienic, silent, intuitive and economic, the Samsung 8.5kg front Load Smart Washer does just about everything bar put away your laundry! For more information, visit National Product Review.
