New Samsung Dishwasher Design?

[washerdude]

Was poking around when I found a completely new designed Samsung dishwasher. It comes with a plastic tub and a stainless steel door (interior and exterior) and it's almost like a BOL WP plastic tub dishwasher with a twist of GE's hybrid plastic/steel models. Ironically enough the sump looks like GE's and WP's design too...Looks like companies are adapting to this design.Seems like a good price too. Now I only hope the spray arms don't alternate as they didn't on the previous Samsungs...

Huh.....wow......
Interesting.
That thing reeks of GE and WP copycatting.

Very odd how they play up the stainless steel door to avoid talking about the less durable or hygenic tub. 

 

 

 

Stainless Steel Door

The interior door is covered with stainless steel that’s more durable, hygienic.

They even directly ripped off Whirlpool's new detergent/rinse aid dispenser assembly. It's identical to mine and the ones found in all current WP/KitchenAid/Maytag machines. And the entire bottom of the tub looks like a GE rip off.

Every time I see the name "Samsung" I roll my eyes and move on. Their entire business model is to blatantly copy what they can and just pay off the lawsuits, yet they market their junk as though it's "innovative" and the first of its kind.

I wonder if this is even a Samsung dishwasher. I've seen BOL Whirlpool and GE dishwashers that were clearly sourced from some Chinese company that sells dishwashers under (almost) every brand under the sun.
