EXPENSIVE DRYERS SHOULD NOT BE DEFECTIVE
BNSASSY
1/11/2018
I purchased this dryer on 9/6/16. Several months ago I started noticing it was as quiet as it once was but it still performed as it always has. Fast forward to last week (1/1/18) - a horrible grinding noise that is best described as rubbing metal started happen. I called Samsung customer service on 1/7 and was instructed that it was out of warranty and I should purchase an extended warranty and call back. I did not use the dryer and called back with the contract # once it was purchased. Customer service stated that the contract # was not showing up and I should reach back out in a few days. I then called the service center for Samsung and was told since this is a pre-existing issue I will have to pay out of pocket for repair, submit invoice showing it was repaired before I can purchase an extended warranty. Of course, I am mostly frustrated because the dryer is only 16 month old and there's nothing I can do except pay for the repairs. I purchased the washer and now feel it is in my interest to buy the extended warranty since this product has proven that it is necessary. So frustrated and disappointed. I will never purchase another Samsung product and will make sure to share my experience with everyone.

Got this dryer a little over a year ago Sept 2016. In August, I noticed it was making a humming noise when I tried to start it and no spinning. Made a service call to Samsung, but the company that would come out was really inconvenient since I would have to take time off work and they wouldn't call the number I provided for my job. I called again in September complaining it was making a squealing noise they directed me to the same company. About an hour later the pulley for the belt broke, leaving me without my dryer. Livid, I tried to contact samsung again and expressed my frustrations. Since I purchased the dryer through bestbuy, I contacted Geek Squad who was able to come out as soon as possible and fixed the pulley and belt. The pulley had melted and snapped... Now the dryer is back to making the humming sound and no spinning. I saved myself the headache and contacted geek squad right away, who has again, been the only saving grace.
A year ago, I would have raved about this dryer, I do like its features. It holds large loads of laundry, and the wrinkle prevent and santizing options are great. Now, I believe this dryer was absolutely NOT worth the money I paid for it. It looks sleek, but if you spend so much on an appliance, it should definitely last more than a year without servicing. I am disappointed, and honestly, will probably not ever purchase another samsung appliance after this.

Very poor design

Most of our clothes require tumble dry at low temperature. To use the low temperature setting, one must use the time dry cycle. The sensor dry does not work with the time dry cycle. This is very poor design. I would not have bought the product if I had known this. This liability is not mentioned until the specifications page in the user manual.

I love this product. I can't stop looking at it every time I walk in to my wash room. I never thought I would be in love with a washer and dryer before. It is so quiet. I was intimated by the manual, but it is very intuitive and easy to use. I love all the features. It will save me money on my energy bill. I can't imagine having another dryer, ever.

Samsung's new model dryer it is a beautiful dryer. It drives very efficiently. Has a very large drum capable of driving several bed covers at the same time and in a short period of time and uses less electricity than our older Samsung model did our older model still works and it is 10 years old just thought it was time for an update the older model is still in use.

Got this dryer to replace the one I've had for years. Wasn't sure I wanted to spend the money,but I'm so happy I did. The dryer holds way more then my last one, plus it seems to dry way way more quickly then my old one. The features are everything I've been looking for, plus they are very easy to use. Very happy with my purchase!

The multi functions on this dryer are impressive. I was telling my friend about the steam feature and he had never heard of something like that before. Looking forward to testing that feature out. I've only done 2 loads so far, but clothes come out completely dry and fresh. Song to indicate load is done is nice compared to the old annoying buzzer noise.

Horribly Inefficient and Just Does NOT Work
Shazzer
2/18/2017
I purchased this dryer as a set with the companion washing machine and I cannot say enough negative things about both of them. AVOID, AVOID AVOID!
Both units have a very cheap panel. Instead of sturdy knobs, or even traditional buttons, they have flat push buttons. In order to get the function to register, you must press very hard - not only is it annoying to be pressing and pressing with no result, the amount of force required is going to end up causing the buttons to break in the near future.
On both units, the timer countdown display has already shorted out so instead of a time countdown, it displays ERR or UR.
The cycles are all VERY long. I put my first load in to dry and the default was an hour and 15 minutes. My old dryer would dry whatever I put in it - even towels - in 40-45 minutes. After a lengthy consultation with the instruction manual, I figured out how to bypass the default and do a timed dry. I set it for 45 minutes and the clothing was still damp. I set it for another 20 minutes and the clothing was STILL damp! This cannot possibly be energy efficient. I think the washing machine cycles are also way too long as well.
I am beyond annoyed that I left my husband talk me into purchasing this set instead of a basic, no frills pair. Yes, they look attractive with their black stainless finish, but it's just window dressing. Don't fall for the flash; if you are considering this set, skip it.

I purchased this product to replace the front loading washer/dryer set that I had for about 7 years. I am extremely happy with this dryer. When drying large bulky items it drys much better, I don't have to run through 3 or 4 dry cycles to get completely dry. I also like that the large drum allows the clothes to separate and dry evenly.
I think one of the major selling points for me was the easy settings for items, bedding/normal ect. I also love the steam which I use for pillows that shouldn't be washed. Another great feature is the lint catcher, I just can't say enough about this dryer, also love the dryer signal, music instead of an annoying ding or buzz.

I really like my dryer and I'm so close to loving it! It dries my clothes and blankets quickly and it hasn't eaten any of my socks yet! The few things I wish I could change with it are: when choosing a "normal" load cycle, I can't reduce the heat - it has to be medium - and I haven't found a good load cycle that will do a big load on auto with low heat. The dryer lint trap, while conveniently placed, sometimes sticks. Not too big an issue, but it's a review, so I'm being picky. :-)

Drying quality/location of lint screen
KATDONH
12/13/2016
I have yet to find a cycle I like. If the machine is set to dry warm; the clothes look wrinkled. If I set on a cycle with less heat it takes 2-3 cycles to dry the clothes. I do not like the location of the lint trap. Lint gets in the machine when the screen is removed

This duet is nice in appearance and works well for most regular cycles. If you have to dry blankets or bulky items you have to run it through several cycles in order to get the items dry. I guess the sensor in the dryer detects that the items are dry and shuts itself off. The only solution that I have found is to run it on timed dry so the sensors are disengaged.
