I would love this machine, but I think I would like the oven that doubles as a fridge. I have no idea what brand it is, but it would be great if I could put something in the fridgoven in the morning when I go to work, and not worry about the food sitting out when it only needs to cook for an hour. What a time saver.
Also on the new washer/dryer I noticed you said it had a countdown to completion timer, that would be WONDERFUL!

This is a compensated review from BlogHer and Samsung Home Appliances

My heart just about jumped out of my chest when BlogHer asked me to chose which brand new SAMSUNG appliance I would like to review (and OWN)! Are you serious?!?!? I made Joe re-read the email over and over to make sure I was translating it correctly. YEP!

And YES--SAMSUNG! They dominate at everything else electric, so why not appliances?

We, the Steece family of 6, are now the proud owners of the Samsung, top-o-the-line, extra large capacity, front loading washer (model: #WF448AAP)
and dryer (model: #DV448AEP)--complete with pedestals!!!

Out with the old...(I'm gonna miss you, 'ole buddy 'ole pal...we've been through LOADS of baby spit up together)




...and in with the brand, spankin' new!
LOVE Mr. Delivery Man's face---"YES! They are quadruplets!" (notice the quad-crowd watching from above?)


Well...whadya think, guys? (The kids were in awe of the giant machines!)


Ben: "OOOOOOOOoooooo!!!"


But enough gawkin'...Mama has work to do! You see, I saved up on laundry so that I could run several different loads in the new W&D! (Yah right...who am I kiddin'...this is Mom & Dad's laundry on a GOOD week!)


Time to sit down and read through those user manuals (Yes! I am THAT particular and thoroughly read through each and every instruction booklet before setting up new gadgets, don't you?) The booklets were very easy and concise.


Samsung Washer Model WF448AAP (isn't she beautiful?!?!)


Click on the image below to view a detailed description of features.


Here are a few of my favorites:

1. EXTRA LARGE CAPACITY!- it can wash a king sized comforter or up to 28 bath towels in a single load! Which is awesome in a house full of 6--the laundry adds up VERRRY quickly! By washing fewer loads--I save time, money, water, and energy! (Ethan checking things out)


2. VRT (Vibration Reduction Technology)- performs smoothly at top spin speeds while minimizing noise and vibration. (Fantastic for sleeping kiddos!)




3. Stylish Design- heck ya! Funny how the most exquisite part of our house has now become our laundry room!


4. Diamond Drum- Tiny little holes that are 36% smaller than conventional drums which prevent fabrics from getting caught or damaged


5. LCD Display & Center Jog Dial- it is SO easy to use and I love how the screen lights up in the dark as well! Look at all of those different cycles! I also love the countdown to completion.



The child lock button will also come in handy with 4 curious kids sneaking in and out of rooms they shouldn't be in! Just press the "Soil Level" & "Signal" buttons simultaneously.


6. Silver Care Sanitation Cycle- 16 million trillion silver (widely known for its antimicrobial properties) ions are released during this particular cycle which does NOT use HOT water---This, in turn, uses 92% LESS energy while killing more than 99.9% of bacteria.



Things to take into consideration:

- Expensive: From what I have researched, this is the "top of the top of the line" when it comes to washing machines and averages around $1400. This particular washer is among the most highly rated front-loading washers in professional appliance testing (Consumer Reports & Good Housekeeping) and I believe it! It is amazing!

- Silver plates must be replaced after 1,000 Silvercare Cycles have been run. If you push the signal button and the silver care button simultaneously, the total number of silver cycles run will be displayed...so it is easy to keep track.


Samsung Dryer Model DV448AEP



Click on the image below to view a detailed description of features.


Here are a few of my favorites:

1. Fuzzy Logic Algorithm- What's this you ask? Sensors measure the degree of dampness and automatically set the drying time! Talk about super energy efficient! I love that it automatically shuts off when it detects that the clothes are perfectly dry to the particular level you choose (5 different drying levels: very dry to damp dry) and not a second longer---no more crisp clothes that have been blown to bits!


2. Mixed Load Bell- When laundry contains various types of cloth which vary in weight and drying time, a bell will alarm when the average dry level is 80% dried---perfect for taking out those polos that Joe doesn't want dried all the way and wrinkled! (I LOOOOVE this feature!)


3. Extra Large Capacity- Again, I am amazed at the amount of laundry I can fit into the washer & dryer! They are HUGE!


4. Refresh or Steam cycle- Say you want to wear something that has been hanging in your closet, smushed and wrinkled---simply throw it in the dryer under "refresh cycle" and it will spray a small amount of water while tumbling with heat. It reduces bad odor and wrinkles! Awesome.


5. Wrinkle Care- It is a button you can push with any cycle-- a small amount of water is sprayed into the drum to release wrinkles from items that have been left in the dryer too long and will continue for up to 90 minutes. I was completely amazed as I pulled load after load out of the dryer and the clothes were hardly wrinkled at all!


6. Rack Dry- Items such as stuffed toys, sweaters, foam rubber pillows, shoes, etc. can be dried on a drying rack so they won't be tossed around. Very COOL!


Things to take into consideration:

- Expensive: Average price is around $1300. (But you definitely get what you pay for and you end up using less energy so it all evens out, right?!)

A Samsung washer and dryer would be AWESOME! Ours are getting quite old but we're trying to get every last use out of them - the Samsung ones sound so efficient and effective. Thanks for the giveaway!

The washer/dryer looks incredible and love all the options available like steaming.
However, the dishwasher is what we need as ours is 16 years old and is so LOUD you cannot be in close vicinity.

Melissa said...

We live in West Texas where the water is horrible! Our dishwasher is desintegrating before our eyes. If I barely move a prong it breaks! I would love to have a non-rusty, non-breakable dishwasher for our fam of 5. Loved your review. We just got a new W&D and it has changed my life in the laundry area. Love reading your blog...I grew up in Waco and I feel like we know the same people sometimes! :) here's my blog: www.walkinfree.blogspot.com

Claire said...

First of all- HI larious pics for this post! I love the children all watching from the balcony above, as well as you fitting half your body in the dryer!
I was totally leaning towards fridge, but I think you may have sold me on the washer/dryer. Now I need to find some things to pawn to come up with the $1300-yikes!
Thanks for the entry!

Defnitely the fridge! (RFG297AARS) I am a single mom of 2 and the fridge I have is the one my parents had when I was growing up so that will tell you how old it is! The ice maker hasn't worked since before I had it, water thing on front doesn't work, the fruit & veggie drawers inside are broken so they don't sit on the rails..lol I could go on! But alas it does keep the food cold and I just can't afford a new fridge. :(

joyh82 said...

Your blog is adorable as well as you and your kiddos. I can see you can really use that new washer and
dryer. Congrats! I would love a new dishwaher! Mine is going on 11 years old and very noisy. Please enter me in the drawing!

I would love the new fridge - I love the washer/dryer, but I just bought new ones a year ago; love the front-loaders!

Hard choice but I'd pick the refridgerator.

I would use all of their appliances, but especially the washer and dryer. WE are moving to a new house and will be purchasing a washer and dryer, and now I know which ones I want!

I'd say the washer/dryer. I am going to have 2 in cloth diapers soon, so a more efficent washer/dryer sounds lovely :)

This is such an unbelievable giveaway!

Megan said...

Definitely the washer and dryer... that fluff option so the clothes don't get wrinkled would be awesome!!

Peggy said...

I would say a shiny new fridge but what I need most is the Range Electric (FTQ387LWGX). I need a range because my stove has a mind of its own and I cannot bake.With all the heartache I have had this year ,I just didn't put it top on my list! So everything I make is on the stovetop. I love to bake and with the holidays coming up I will be lost. A shiny $200.Best Buy card could go towards this wonderful new range and make my holiday wish come true!

Oh a new fridge would be delightful..mine is short and you have to do alot of sitting on the floor to get to the back.
Enjoy that beautiful w/d they are amazing.

SarahHub said...

Oh, oh, oh - THE NEW RANGE! The one I have currently came with our house 9 years ago. It has four burners (only one is big enough to cook on,) can't keep a constant temperature in the oven (I now use a thermometer to cook by,) and is U-G-L-Y!

A $200 GC would go a long way towards talking my husband into a new stove!

I live in a tiny NYC studio, so I'm in a strange situation. I have no room for a normal sized range, dishwasher, or refrigerator, and no room for a W/D at all!! I'd have to get the microwave, which I've learned I can live without, but it'd be nice to pop some popcorn sometimes!

Don't think my comment made it last time, so I'll try again. I lust after the dryer. Ours is ancient, loud, and only has one speed.

Holy Cow - what a blessing to review appliances! :) Having four little ones of my own, I can appreciate the amount of laundry you have to do. So happy for you!
We recently replaced our washer/dryer with front-loading models...so nice! Next on my wish list would be a new fridge, for sure!

Bobbie - Clumsy Crafter said...

Can I just come hug your new machines? The drying rack for stuffed animals is great. I accidently dried my daughters maltese stuffed (notice stuffed, not real) puppy this weekend and it seriously looks like a poodle on a bad hair day now. it's horrible!

Joanna said...

What a great review! I am UBER jealous and would love the Washer & Dryer. Oh my goodness it would make life so much easier!

My washer is haunted...and it's a little crazy too. It randomly stops midcycle...it bounces around. It's just downright special. I would totally love a new washer...oooor washer and dryer.

Dishwasher. I could definitely use a new dishwasher!

definitely the refrigerator! Ours is small and arranged wierd!

Mandy said...

I'm so jealous! The washer, hands down. As it stands, I lug my laundry down the block to the laundrymat each week then sit there while the machines do their work. It's multiple hours a week that I could be doing something more productive, but alas I must guard the clothes from thieves. :(

The Washer and Dryer! I've been coveting a washer with a steam setting for years!

Melinda Hamby said...

I would love to have Dishwasher (DMR78AHS). We are renovating a very old home, three kids, three dogs, two cats, two birds, 15 chickens. I stay home and cook from scratch, every day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Lots and lots of DISHES. No dishwasher. At all. We've been considering a countertop dishwasher, simply because we cannot afford a full sized one on our tight budget. And I am so busy without our homestead and home schooling (one teen in high school and another almost ready for four year old kindergarten) that dishes just add to time I could be spending writing or playing with the kids and animals. So, this gift card could really make my Christmas!!!

Jen said...

A new washer and dryer would be the best thing! Our current washer is only about 2 years old but it takes forever to do laundry since it is not large capacity. It would be really convienent to have a larger one. Our current dryer doesn't work properly and it takes about 2 rounds to actually dry the clothes. If there were more than 2 people in our house I would absolutely go insaine! I really need a new one. jennifer dot sciarra at gmail dot com

Adriana said...

The appliance I need to replace s a 15 year old washing machine with a broken knob; snapped right off at the stem!

Washer. . .the hinge broke. We tried replacing but still need to shim the lid shut to get it to run. Totally stinks when the shim comes undone during the cycle.

The washer & dryer! I've never had a new set in my life, and now would be the perfect time, considering our washer just died. Plus we'll be adding another member to the family in a few months, and the laundry workload will only increase.

melissa said...

Definitely my own washer and dryer to make washing my cloth diapers easier, no more coin operated machines!

Cathy said...

Our microwave died last week, so a new microwave would make feeding our family of seven MUCH easier.

Leslie said...

To make my life better, the kitchen appliances I'd most like to replace are my washer and dryer. I always try to cram as much as I can into them, which makes them not wash/dry as well. A new set would be awesome!

lesliegbarton@gmail.com

Robin B said...

It's actually a toss-up between the washer/dryer and a refrigerator. All of them are 14-15 yrs old and really starting to feel their age. Would love to get through the laundry a whole lot quicker and also to see a corresponding decrease in our utility bills.

.shannon. said...

i can't pick just one appliance...a washer/dryer would save me time, a refrigerator that would cool properly would make me happy and a fully functioning above range microwave would make me pretty happy too.

Unknown said...

i would love an electric oven - mine gas oven doesn't broil well.

MK said...

We just bought a new house, and after living with NO DISHWASHER FOR FOUR YEARS, we will finally have one. My life is about to change.
A really nice refrigerator and washer and dryer got thrown in along the way. The range and oven are built-in to the island, which I'm super excited about. Unfortunately, we're bringing our old, worn-out microwave along, and I'd have to say...a Samsung microwave might just make my appliance-life complete.

April said...

I would love the new Fridge (RFG297AARS)!

Leah said...

Having just moved into an apartment which contains my FIRST DISHWASHER OF MY VERY OWN, I have to say the last step in appliance nirvana would be a washer/dryer in my apartment. I've had washer/dryers in the building that I had to share with my neighbors, leading to "it's been two hours do I just take their wet laundry out and do mine?" dilemmas. Plus, I had to pay for it. I did the laundromat, which meant I could wash all my clothing at once but cost more and meant I had to sit there and watch it spin for an hour-and-a-half. When the laundromat near my apartment went out of business, the next closest was particularly ghetto-tastic that never fixed their machines when they broke, leading to a smaller and smaller supply the longer I went there. I would absolutely love to be able to do my apartment for free and at my leisure! One day, one day....

Dana said...

I was practically drooling through this entire post!! I have been eying the front loading washer and dryers and these do everything I could want and then some. I'd have to these would be what I want!!

I would say that we need a new dryer, but would take a new washer too. I am amazed by the size and awesomeness of your new set. WOW. Our dryer is old and takes 8 years to dry clotes, even if I just put half the load in, I hang all our shirts. It's so easy to forget them in there for days, usually they are dry, but sometimes we get busy and forget and they have to be rewashed:<

Crystal Renee said...

"Which Samsung appliance would make your life easier (refrigerator, microwave, range, dishwasher, or W/D)?"

Honestly, a new washer and dryer. It's so hectic and our dryer is about to give out. But of course the one I want is out of budget.

Love the pics. You look AMAZING for having Quads. I have twins and still look like a blimp, 5 years later I might add. Lol.

Good luck to everyone :)

Aren't the Samsung washer/dryers wonderful? I bought mine a month ago and LOVE LOVE LOVE them!

So now, I need a new Samsung refrigerator! And I need the dishwasher! And I need the kitchen range too! I NEED all the Samsung appliances! But if I had to choose only one, I would have to go with the refrigerator. Those french doors sure look like they'd be great! and I love having a freezer on the bottom!

momznite said...

It would be great to have a new fridge with better energy efficiency, a bigger freezer compartment, and no peeling plastic.

Sarah said...

The Washer(WF448AAP)would be a welcome addition to our family. Mine is quite small and fading...but don't tell it I said that. (still want the washer to try and do a good job). This washer seems amazing and looks energy efficient and time proficient!

The refrig is the oldest of my appliances, though your review of the W/D certainly highlights a load of functions that mine can't deliver.
Besides age, I think the energy efficiency of the refrigerator makes me put it at the top of our replace list.

Wow! I am so impressed with all the photos and the details. For me, it's almost a toss-up between the W/D and a refrigerator. As the latter one is leaking and I never have enough room for all our food, I'm going with it. Thanks for the review!

We could really use the dishwasher as ours is ancient and not doing the best job. Hard to choose, tho, as the fridge wd be great, too! But we'd need the DW before we'd need a fridge, I think... so I choose DW!

Oh I'm so envious! I am afraid that my washer is on it's last moments and $ is a little tight around here as with every where else. I would get on my knees and thank the Samsung gods for a chance at a new washing machine. The red is so cool and I'm sure it would make laundry almost fun!

That washer and dryer would definitely make my life a lot easier! I like the child locks on the machines. I have two young kids who like to think they know how to do the laundry, but all they succeed in doing is making a mess! I had to laugh at your review--I too am a manual reader!

Kerri Anne said...

Definitely the dishwasher, but that washer/dryer combo is SO PRETTY.

I would love a new washer and dryer…the washer being the most wanted…they are so energy and water efficient now!!! mine uses 19 gal of water each cycle (and then you add how much soap, etc, goes into 19 gallons to actually wash)…and i do at least 2 loads a day, plus about 6 on the weekend!

Washer and dryer for sure! I have no dryer and my washer is very old and would like to retire while she still has some time to enjoy it.

W/D for SURE!!! I can't keep up at all around here, and having a larger capacity washer/dryer sure would make a difference!

Love the pics with your play by play. SO FUNNY! :)

WOW! Look at that beautiful W&D set....awesome! We need to replace our leaky dishwasher over here. A $200 gift card would come in handy for that;)

alexis said...

I could definitley benefit from having a dishwasher!! We bought an older house without one, and after we had daughter number 2 I started an in-home daycare. Let's just say I wash a lot of dishes!!

Thanks! Alexis

I could definitely use a new dishwasher. Ours is old and doesn't get the dishes clean. We have a baby on the way and a new dishwasher would be great for all the baby bottles we'll soon have

washer and dryer!!!

Cristin said...

I would loooove the new fridge OR the Washer! We do our laundry at a laundromat, so it would be great to be able to do it in the comfort of our home... But the fridge is so sparkly... decisions, decisions!

Lovely & utilitarian looking units.
Washer & dryer for sure.
Driving 4 miles & hauling comforters to the local laundrymat is using up all my change! And so not green.
I rather fix dinner at the same time as doing laundry.

I would definitely pick the washer and dryer mine are ancient they keep catching and burning clothes to a crisp. I also have a family of 6. but my kids are 12,9,9, and 7. even more laundry!!!!!!!!

Sarah said...

Fridge - better design, bigger, definitely would make my cooking/baking and hospitality life a lot easier!

ToyLady said...

I could SO use a new washer & dryer - mine came with the house, and they were elderly then. But so where the stove, fridge and dishwasher . . . which we've already systematically had to replace. Now it's just down to the old and the ugly. . .

Nice to meet you, Suz! Oh, a spankin' new washer would make my life MUCH easier. We have a three year-old front loader (NOT Samsung) that is leaving greasy spots on our clothes!

fourkidsmom said...

I would have loved the giant washer and dryer just a few years ago with laundry for 6 but since I am down to laundray for 3, I lean toward the refrigerator. Mine is OK but SOOOOO small. It was a handmedown from my mother-in-law.

I could totally use one of those washer and Dryers...we have a family of 8...6 kiddos ranging in age from 4-16 and you don't have to tell me twice about piles of clothes...and towels and such...this would be a dream come true...

Nina said...

The Range Electric (FTQ387LWGX) is what I'd like, please. :) This is such a nice looking range that looks really essy to keep looking nice and clean. No more crusty spills to scrub.

Jenny said...

I would love the a w/d combo...i hate laundry so anything to make it faster and more efficient would be awesome!

I am seriously coveting that washer and dryer...what I would do for a larger capacity...I have four little ones too so I know this would be a huge help!!!

Nichole said...

I would just like to say that I am green with envy! I would love, love, love to have that set! Our dryer is about to die and getting a set like that would be a dream come true! That must wait for us though! Hope you enjoy it! You deserve it with all you do! :o)

Anonymous said...

I'm sooo torn. The washer/dryer are older and shake during the spin cycle. BUT...the fridge would be the one. The motor is out of place and makes a loud rumble when the cooling cycle is over. The repairman says it's not worth fixing. We are just waiting for it to go! A new fridge would be awesome!!

i think that even though we also need to replace our oven/range, i would have to say a new washer + a dryer would make my life tremendously easier. i do at least a load each day, if not more + our current models are on their way out!

our microwave is as old as our house - almost 20 years old!!!! I need a new Samsung Microwave!

What a beautiful washer and dryer! I mean, just beautiful! I can only imagine how much you are enjoying them! As much as I would love to have them I have to say that my house needs a new refrigerator the most. Ours in on its last leg I'm afraid. But boy would I love to get this washer and dryer some time!

A new washer and dryer would so make our life easier now. Our dryer is about to give out and I would LOVE all that room.

So, I would llloooovvvveeee a new washer and dryer, love love love it, however if I were to win even a very generous $200 doesn't make quite enough of a dent in the price so I'd probably have to get a dishwasher. A nice quiet dishwasher.

KyleneW said...

Sweet! I would love a large capacity washer & dryer :)

katrynka said...

I would love the new oven/cooktop. I have never tried electric, but I think this one would convert me! I hate cleaning my range, and so the glass top looks marvy!

I would say fridge. I just saved and saved for a new front load washer and dryer. I know that our fridge is the next thing that needs to be replaced and would end up saving us money in energy costs in the long run. Plus the floor grate face plate thinger keeps falling off the bottom of the fridge and it drives me INSANE.
Enjoy your new washer/dryer.

I'm going to have to bookmark your site, love your sense of humor!
A new Samsung Fridge would make my life easier. We have a white side by side that I hate. With growing kids and the desire to have lots of fresh fruit and veggies on hand I'd love a new fridge with more room and features.
Congrats on your new W/D; we got one a year ago and love it. Just wish someone would put the clean clothes away for me!

Wow! I can't even imagine what a gift that would be. I'd love those, but a dishwasher that does not make me actually wash my dishes before it does would even be better!

The features of this washer and dryer would be a definite benefit for our family. I am always forgetting clothes in either the washer or the dryer.

Thanks a bunch for the chance! I'd love to try out their new DV448AEP dryer. My current dryer doesn't do a good job, and overheats really easily.

The washer/dryer would be amazing. Maybe because I am in college, and all the washers here are highly, highly shady.

I really would love to replace our old stove. It has three small burners and a broken large one. So annoying trying to cook a huge pot on a small burner. Your washer/dryer rocks!! I am sure that laundry will be a wee bit easier {and fun} now :)

Well...if you asked yesterday it would be that beautiful washer & dryer you reviewed....LOVE! But, our dishwasher is "officially" dead as of this morning (and warranty expired). I now pick dishwasher!! The prize would help me to get a new one. Here's hoping! Thanks :)

Hands down it would be a new dishwasher. My current one is super loud and not large enough. I believe it's over 20 years old. Thanks.
