My son bought a top-loading Samsung Washer that did about $65,000 in damage to a brand-new rental house he has in Texas. B.S. to Samsung. Never again. About 2017.

About 2016 When we moved here I always use Consumer Report as my guide and at that time the Samsung Washer & Dryer that I purchased from HD were rated #1. The dryer had a cracked drum at 5 years and 1 month. Nobody at Samsung gave a rat's Azz. I had a service contract that was finished at 5 years. So I'm finished with Samsung. It could be free from them. They can, well you know!

I'm in the market for a Washer & Dryer again. LG for sure.

The SAMSUNG recall has to do with a FIRE HAZARD on the washers, and according to the CNN report over 600,000 washers are involved.....

LOL. According to the news report, if you have one of these washers, you need a "software update" from the Internet. I hope it doesn't happen to my cheap Hotpoint washer, because I don't think it can be connected to the Internet.

Best Buy does not use their employee either- I just bought a dishwasher in RI and it was a completely difference com[any who did the delivery and install

Costco is a no brainer unless you don’t like the selection. They exist to please the customer. Ge, Samsung and LG are sub optimal. The primary concern should be reliability. Sadly the new ones are not the quality of the old ones.

Relative reverse engineered all brands as his job for major manufacturer. Bells and whistles are personal preference. The guts of the machines are basically the same. Maytag has commercial technology line which has been superb.

I like the Costco option!!! Will they do free shipping to The Villages? Based on google maps, looks like the closest one is 55-65 miles away, depending on route taken. TIA. We are looking to buy washer/dryer combo in first qtr 2023.

Yes they will deliver here.
My son bought a king size mattress from Costco online. They came in, set it up and took the old mattress with them.
About a month later their dog peed on the mattress, my son calls Costco told them what happened.
Costco said we'll ship a new one in 3 days; no further questions ask.
