What Customers Are Saying
The product offers efficient drying, useful features like wrinkle control and steam, and is generally described as high-quality and durable. However, a significant number of customers have experienced issues with the drum cracking or heating element failing after a few years of use, requiring frequent part replacements. This raises concerns about the product's long-term reliability and quality, which prospective buyers should carefully consider.

Would Not Recommendthis was a great washer for the first few years but after 5 years the drum cracked. it seems by looking at other reviews on multiple sites everyone has the same problem but many times it is happening after only a year or two once the warranty has expired. do not purchase this unless you want to be buying a replacement in a few years.

No customer service to fix broken dryer
Would Not Recommendi've had the dryer for 4 months and it's worked less than 2. servicequick and samsung care suck. i've been trying to get the dryer repaired for weeks. they asked if my dryer was stacked and i said yes. they sent one tech who left, having done nothing, because he said he couldn't do it alone. i had to wait another 10 days. when the 2 techs came, 1 tech left because they didn't need 2. the tech that stayed kept calling to ask for help identifying parts & their function! after they left, the dryer ...

Didn't work right out of the box. Called for service almost a month later a repair man stood in front of it for 10 minutes, said some nonsense about the "sensor" and told me it worked. It doesn't. Don't waste you money on this machine
works as expected
Would RecommendThere were reviews from a couple of years ago that showed the drum cracked. I THINK the drum in the dryer we got is different than the ones that cracked. Also, there were several people who talked about their clothes not getting dry. We have not had that problem. Thinking about those reviews were the folks had trouble I wonder how long their exhaust runs were. We have a 3 foot exhaust run because the dryer is in the corner of the house and it exhausts directly outside without a long run. Ou...

Very disappointing
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] worked fine at first. 3 1/2 years in it’s making horrible noises. after viewing the youtube, it could be the idler pulley, could be the belt, or it could be rollers. who knows?? very disappointing.

ONE HUGE BALL OF OUTSIDE HOT INSIDE WET CLOTHES
Would Not RecommendOnly use the timed setting because all other ones leave clothes damp or wet... despte advertised sensor advertisement. Bought the wool balls that are supposed to prevent clothes from balling up and this did not work. I have to put on medium or high heat for 40 min and take out and shake out the insides and re-set for 40 min med heat. The filter is a Pain! It is hard to open and lint gets stuck in many crevices around circumference of door and around filter areal would NOT but again

Fire Hazard!
Would Not RecommendWe have had this dryer for about 3 years. Model DV42H5000EW. We currently have been getting a random HE error so I pulled the heating element. The HE error occurred once about a month ago and did not happen again until recently. When the error occurred, the dryer would stay on while still heating until we manually stopped it, even though the timer had 1 minute left. The heating element coil had broke and fused to the metal casing and the dryer has been heating while fused to the casing for an un...

My review
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this washer and dryer should not be marketed as a stackable. the dial on the dryer points upwards, making it difficult to read and set.

Inflexible heat settings, can't dry on LOW temp
Would Not Recommendnormally i would have given this a high rating but the preset cycles make it impossible to dry things on a low setting using sensor dry. no wool cycle on the 5400.

Drum Cracked After 2 Yrs
there is a crack forming, which turns the dryer into a fire hazard as the lint will get through the crack and coat the heating element. google it!

Drys fast
Would RecommendThis dries your clothes very fast. I like that it has the wrinkle free option. It plays a little song when it is done. You can fit a lot of clothes in the dryer. It is a great product. I would recommend it to a friend.
