Excellent Washer!

I bought this washer and matching gas dryer about a month ago and have been very pleased. This washer is beautiful with a lot of practical features.
Having the controls at the front of the washer makes it easier to use, especially for my short wife. The clear glass top has a folding section that allows you to help vent the tub after a wash. The glass top also means that you can watch the washer as it does its magic. The tub is huge and I was able to fit my King size quilt in there to wash with no problems. You can wash king size sheets and pillowcases with room to spare. This washer also plays fun little tunes to signal when it comes on, is finished, turned off, etc.
The only downside to having the control on the front rather than on a more traditional back plate is that it exposes more of the back wall in your utility room. Also, ever so often there will be a very small amount of water left in the tub after I do a load. It is only a quarter cup of water at most and not a big deal. When you have the spin speed set to high and it is at its peak in the cycle you are going to hear it if you are near by. I am sensitive to appliance noises (my fridge compressor really annoys me) but this washer noise doesn't bother me. It isn't for very long and if you actually go look at it through the glass top during this point in the cycle it is impressive what the washer is doing.
I would absolutely recommend this washer to a friend. I hope the experience I shared helps.

What's great about it: Easy to use, looks beautiful, large capacity, impressive, it plays tunes
What's not so great: Ever so often a little bit of water will be left in the tub (maybe that is normal?)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful but noisy

I bought this fridge from Pacfic Sales inside Best Buy to be a great staple in my new house and thought I was getting a beautiful and high quality refrigerator. I did get a beautiful fridge but am questioning the quality. This refrigerator is loud. The compressor is noisy when it is on not just with the typical droning sound but sometimes also with a high pitched hum. I was also periodically getting a loud noise that sounded like a card hitting bicycle spokes.
Long story shot, 2 weeks after I bought it I was told to call Service which sent out a repairman to look at the fridge. Naturally, it wasn't making the loud noise when he arrived nor could he find anything wrong other than some tape that had come up in the back which he patted back down. That did fix the card in the spoke sound but the loud compressor drone and high pitched hum still remains. The repairman (who was very nice) said this fridge has a multistage compressor and when its on the high stage you are going to hear it. So I guess this fridge just uses the high stage a lot and therefor, you hear it a lot?
My previous fridge was a GE Profile side-by-side and I never heard it unless I was right next to it and the compressor was running. My parent's have a french door LG refrigerator and it is as quiet as a mouse. To be fair, the LG french door design does have a flaw with their ice maker. They are known to freeze the ice door (in the door) shut which makes getting the ice bucket out very difficult. I believe this happens because they put the ice maker on the door which can't consistently keep the ice below freezing. Even with this flaw I would take their LG refrigerator over mine because it is quiet. It is a shame because this is such a beautiful refrigerator with a lot of promising features like the flex zone drawer.
I'm disappointed in Best Buy for not offering me exchange options (maybe this has something to do with Pacific Sales, I don't know) but I'm even more disappointed in Samsung. I've owned many Samsung TVs, phones, tablets, computers, etc. and expected this expensive refrigerator to provide a similar quality experience. Having a refrigerator that makes your guests ask "what is that noise" isn't a very good experience.
If I had a chance to look in the crystal ball before purchasing I would have bought a different fridge. I know my review was a little long and didn't go into the great features that this fridge does provide but I hope it helps.
