I guess adults don't need things like that. It looks more like a toilet.

Its cute....Looks like a modified version of a full size samsung washer. But couldn't you just use a normal protable washer or one of those panda washers?

Another gimmick for the rich and ignorant folk who don't know any better. Not sure why a normal washer can't do the exact same thing.

Hi temp washing
Plus up to something like 8 rinses.
A glorified diaper pail, IMO.

My goodness, all those rinses!

And when baby outgrows this machine--will it show up at yard sales?Sounds like an EXPENSIVE solution for a small problem!-Yes,just use the full sized "adult" washer!
These seem to be popular in Asia - at least Samsung says so. The Super Sanitize cycle goes up to 194F, which is hotter than any "adult washer". Not sure how useful that is, though. How would you normally wash diapers? Just wash? Bleach and rinse, rinse, rinse?
expensive portable?
Is it a portable? I don't see any wheels, but in the description it mentions
"Compact and modern design which easily fits in your home at a 0.9 cu ft capacity and universal adapter included to easily connect to any washer or faucet"
It could be a good portable for someone living in an apartment? Plus it has an internal heater and 900rpm spin. Seems a little expensive though...

The cycles portion goes by so fast, I watched it twice. Nothing about diapers, baby towels and washcloths, bibs and kerchiefs?, delicate baby wear. They may carve out a nice niche market. No doubt this gimmick is on baby shower wish lists now. No baby care dryer? Arthur
Up to 6 rinses? Oh the EPA folks wont like that. It isnt green! Did anyone else pick up on the fact that diapers arent even mentioned in the laundry lineup? All those disposable diapers in the garbage. Just imagine what they amount to in a year.

Nobody....
Is going to pay for a 600-700 doller unit when you could get a full size unit for LESS. The fact that it can be used in an apartment as a portable washer is a little...expensive and i doubt anybody will even buy it to use as a portable washer or just a washer for baby's clothes.

For some parents, nothing is too good or too expensive for their new born...
And even if it ain't green, if it might be good for their baby by any proven or unproven way, that's fine as there's nothing that's more important for them than their baby!
This marketing strategy will appeal some irrational people and I'm sure there's plenty of them! I'm sometimes irrational too but I just don't have the money, interest or a baby!

I think some people would buy a turd. I wonder how any of us managed to survive childhood w/o the baby washing machine?

My grandmother swears to this day that cloth diapers are still better than disposables despite the advancements over the years. She says that clean and sanitized cotton is much more breathable and less irritating to the skin versus the plastic and foam that is used in a pack of premium Huggies. What's funny is that despite her age she is still very keen and sharp when it comes to the happenings of today, and even she says that there's no way a family with a newborn, or any babies to that matter, could use real cloth diapers unless they have an older washer that actually uses water, and doesn't temper down the hot inlet.
The idea of this little machine is great. A machine that can basically flood the clothes with super heated water and rinse them very thoroughly is a dream come true in the midst of today's water pinching washers, BUT why is it that machines being produced now can't do this already? Why is an entirely separate and fairly expensive alternative being presented as a solution, rather than a simple addition to the cycles and characteristics of the machine that is already sitting in your laundry room?

I think it's a good idea to have a second machine designed to clean diapers and baby clothes. It makes a good reason to have at least two machines in the laundry room!
But if I had to get one for that, I'd take one with a solid tub!

There's a picture on Amazon describing how to connect it to a regular faucet - so maybe it is actually a portable.
However, with 0.9 cu. ft. capacity, only three temperatures(hot, sanitize and super sanitize), four cycles(normal, quick, delicates and baby clothes, the latter kind of surprising) it doesn't seem like a good one. And certainly not considering the price.
But the idea of a separate washer for baby clothes, so that *adult* detergents and residues will never contact items such as diapers, sounds kind of...convincing, a little at least.

Nice little machine, and it looks like it does use quite a bit of water too 
Plus I notice, theres only one temperature choice (Hot)!
The cycle may be long, but cant be as long as the front loaders we have here, going on some settings for 3hrs, in fact, thats average now.

First of all, another senior moment (that's 2 in the last 24 hours): I looked at the baby's dialogue in your original post, Malcolm, and thought it read, "Why are you so ####ty inside?" I'll cop to being slightly scandalized that a baby would have such a mouth. Had to laugh when I watched the vid and realized the word was actually "shiny." Time for a bifocal tune-up, obviously!
On point: Actually...I kinda want a washer that rinses up to 6 times and super-heats the water! Wait...the baby doesn't come with it, right? #don'tknowhowthesethingswork

One born every minute...
You're right, it's probably on baby gift registries everywhere by now. If it says "baby" and gives the illusion of more safety, the promise of better health, etc., parents will buy it. CR has been telling parents for years that "baby" or "children's" sunscreen is pointless and a waste of money but those products are still on the market so demand is there.
This is no larger than the tiny Haier washer I brought home to play with a few months ago. The Haier has no heater, no six-rinse capability, but I'll bet it's not much different otherwise and it wouldn't surprise me one bit to learn that Samsung is sourcing this from a Chinese company as they do with most of their appliance parts already.

More info from Samsung website. It's the most expensive Suzy Homemaker washer on the planet at $600.00, but I guess if you want two Soft-Close Lids, you're gonna have to pony up.
Downloaded the owner's manual and will read through it later today.

I noticed it has two lids, one of which is made of stainless steel and locks during the cycle. You could never watch it wash. How boring!
It has been on the website for a couple of weeks but the manual was only released recently. As usual, Samsung's cycle description is really lacking. I wonder, why there was no pre-wash included some of the cycles. Yes, you would have to return to the washer to add detergent but still... I think a (almost) boil wash is better with a pre-wash.
Also notice how they say that the Super Sani cycle yields 60% better cleaning than Normal.

Hold on...
If it is atachable to sink, dosen't this mean ATC is not implemented?
