Samsung EU smart Washing Machine May 2014

...And here they are

The dosing balls. For powder detergent, or additives, or liquid in case you don't want to use Autodose...still no alternative for softener.

There are 3 sizes...wonder why is the largest one dark gray, and medium and small one are light blue

If these machines ever make it to the US, they would cost around $2,770.00 US. I don't much fancy paying that kind of money for a plastic Korean washer. I'd rather buy a Miele if it came down to it, thank you very much.

I like what Eugene said about future machines not even having controls and requiring an internet connection. What fun hackers and Big Brother could have with our laundry habits/products!

Again, this type of machine is aimed at people who find laundry day odious and don't want to have to think about any of it, not putting in the detergent or even seeing the laundry in the machine, for that matter. I do NOT like the smoked out covers on the glass doors these days. They seem to be more and more common.

Gosh, you're SO right!

It's available on Samsung's Swiss homepage already. And there's also an 8 and a 12 kilo model coming. The 12 kg washer has a detergent drawer.

German to English translation

Made me smile...the touch screen washer has a "skid" programme. The mind boggles!

 

[logixx]

LOL

Skid? In the original, it says Spin.

"Car Wash Optimum" would be "Auto Wash Optimum" as in AUTOmatic.
"Overdrive" would be the quick cycle.

Detergent dispenser thing reminds me of Indesit Moon!
The control panel is nice, but that display sure is small in comparison to the rest of its features.
Panasonic origin by any chance, as they promoted one like this at IFA 2013?

Well, I think if you're putting on screen on a washer, there are only so many design choices. Most big screens are put in the middle of the fascia - see Miele, V-Zug, BSH, AEG...

What I don't like about these washers is that you just have a limited selection of temperatures and the cycles. Most of them I don't need but others that I would need are not available.
