Samsung went full-on modern with this top load washing machine for 1099 dollars you get a truly sleek looking design complete with a smartphone esque touch panel a built-in sink and a lower profile display it's 5.4 cubic foot capacity can hold all of your laundry and Samsung gave this model extra space between the sink and the dispenser in the back so you can more easily add soap and fabric softener my main grapes here relate to the angle of the washer display sure it looks sleek but you can't read it from a distance and the tab that holds the washer lid and sink together is located in the center which makes it really easy to accidentally separate the lid from the sink when you're simply trying to lift the lid to add your clothes the Samsung Smart Home app is also supposed to work with this washer but I found it so difficult to configure at the outset that I gave up things don't improve when we turn to performance this top loader did not do a good job removing stains in fact scoring among the lowest out of all of the washing machines we've reviewed I liked that Samsung put clear effort into making this washer look modern but it doesn't help it very much disappointing performance and a couple of odd usability quirks ultimately make it tough to recommend
