I initially chose this machine based on the 5 year warranty, as all others are now only 1 year (thank you Brexit...). I also wanted the BubbleSoak and the HygieneSteam function. Very happy with the purchase. I tried the BubbleSoak on my tea towels, linen tablecloths etc and it really makes a difference - can wash at 60 with brilliant white results where before I had to use 90. The Wifi function is great because you get a notification when it's done - no more discovering smelly laundry a couple of days later... The app is nice, but it does not incorporate all of the functions/programs of the machine, so I don't really use if for setting the programs. Nice touch is that it sends the right drying program directly to my Samsung tumble drier! It is very quiet, even when washing towels and bath mats, no more spin cycles that sound like the house is falling down. The supplied instructions are useless, you have to download the full manual online.

Selecting a tumbler dryer is an art now with all the options - we finally selected the model from the reviews. Out previous model was a condenser dryer and this is a Heat Pump dryer which I must say is pretty impressive and seems to run for cooler than the old Bosch Condenser but is very effective at drying . Som of the drying times when you set it up looks huge but once the cycle starts running and the washing starts to effectively dry these times are shortened dramatically. One massive plus on this dryer the you can easily connect the water extracted from the condenser direct to the sink/washer waste ( all required connections are provided) so no more emptying the water drawer, the the only thing you need to do between dry cycles is clean the filter. One this this drier does do which out last one did not is it does stop periodically and reverse tumble snd prevent the balling up of things like bedding. This is also a smart drier so you can set your drying cycle up on your phone or machine and it sends a message to you when complete. Unfortunatly it is not that smart that it puts in the washing for you and takes out out at the end, folds it and puts it away manual intervention is required for that Ha! It is early days yet but so far we are very impressed along with the 5 year warranty Samsung is currently providing . Only Negative for feedback - The user manual for this machine is very edited and limited and leaves many gaps on using it such as switching the door opening (which we wanted to do - however - looking on the Samsung Website there was a full install and user manual unedited which had all this info - Why is it the full install and user guide not supplied?

This is a really great dryer, reasonably quick to dry for a heatpump model, very economical to run and very quiet during operation. Clothes come out dry, towels soft and fluffy, great! So why only 4 stars? Well, like the vast majority of tumble dryers these days there is no reverse tumble action which means you are constantly stopping the machine, opening the door and untangling your bedding from the tight ball it has rolled itself into. The really infuriating part is that when you first switch on the machine tumbles first one way, then the other, for about 2 minutes or so, then reverts to rotating in one direction for the entirety of the cycle. Obviously this dryer has the capability to reverse the drum action, so why not throughout the bedding cycle - after all, why have a cycle dedicated to bedding if it operates no differently from a standard whites/cottons cycle? The only negative on an otherwise super bit of kit (and it looks good too!)

This dryer is AMAZING! It hardly uses any electricity which is the reason we bought it even though it was one of the more expensive dryers. It is well designed, easy on the eye amd intuitive to use. It tells you when the filter/heat pump needs cleaning out and comes with a little brush that makes it easy to do. The water extracted is collected in a well at the top of the dryer. You just empty this out after each tumble dry (so no need for any vented pipework out the back... you just plug it in). It connects to a smartapp on your phone so you can see how much drying time is left etc. which we find very useful if out and about. Has made life so much easier for us... we love it! Definately would recommend this product... impressed!

Great looking tumble dryer which is extremely user-friendly. Buying from AO was super easy and, as we were purchasing for our new home, it was really helpful that delivery could be held off until we had completed the purchase process. Lovely large drum, really quiet when in use and so easy to use. Highly recommend this product and the would always choose AO for my key appliances.

the extra drying time a heat pump dryer is reported to need due to the lower heat available seems to be compensated by the better cooling/condensing, the drying time shown for each programe seems to be just an estimate, and rarely takes as long, i'm guessing it wold have to be 100% loaded to take that long.

Brilliant tumble dryer, has more than enough settings including an extra fluffy setting for towels which is amazing! We'll worth the money!

Product seems good so far - runs quietly, appears high tec. However, water needs to be emptied often and dryer is not drying clothes as quickly as we thought - seems to take hours as air is not as hot as it could be perhaps, given it is energy-efficient.
