I'm seeing that dry Crist and this here is the Samsung WF 457 washing machine let's take a look so at first glance this is a very sleek machine it's got this kind of pearly white finish and it's got the nice 8 inch LCD touchscreen you can turn it on by pressing the power button here and that'll bring up this really nice looking back lift menu now this menus got a lot of utility too if you look at it it's got all your cycles over here you've got normal heavy-duty permanent press delicates we've also got some new ones you've got deep steam you've got a sanitized mode or you'll even find that this entire category of specialty cycles and this is a list of cycles that are made for specific types of stains cooking and dining if you've got an apron of a lot of spaghetti sauce on it gardening in yard work for grass stains and mud just a lot of cool categories you can play with and get a very exact cycle going get close you want as clean as they can be another thing that I like as someone who's always been a little bit of an idiot when it comes to laundry is that each one of these cycles has a little description here that tells you exactly what it's good for and exactly how you should use it so it's kind of idiot proof in the middle you've got settings that are specific to the cycle you've selected and over here you've got some general settings that are good for all cycles you can turn the light on inside you can activate smart control mode or she tells the washer to connect with your phone and let you control it remotely we've had a little bit of mixed results getting that to work it works most the time but sometimes not as well as we'd like so stay tuned for some more in-depth analysis about that one other big problem that we have with the app is that it is available on iOS devices and it's available on Samsung Galaxy devices but it's not available on other Android devices we have a nexus tab here at the cnet offices and we can't find the app anywhere so we're a little bit miffed by that the washer also has this drawer here if you open it up you'll find a place to put the detergent the fabric softener everything you need and it's real nice if you want to pull that out and push it back in out of the way makes for a much more simple design on the outside you like that quite a bit now let's take a look inside we've got about 4.5 cubic feet of space inside of here and that's a great number that's a lot of laundry do in one load and that stacks up really well against other smart washers in this field you look inside you've also got these sort of diamond patterned events and that's supposed to be more efficient about the way it drains water and soaks your clothing and they call it a diamond drum personally I think that's just a way to use the word diamond and make it sound fancier than it is it's just stainless steel but it still looks kind of nice i'll give credit for that if you want more information about this washing machine or any others check out all of our coverage here on sina including our washer buying guide and a specific review of this the WF 457 prasina i'm right
