    Verdict

    Samsung WD90TA046BE balances solid cleaning performance with user-friendly functions, starting with a 9 kg wash and 6 kg dry capacity suited for medium households. Its Digital Inverter Motor ensures quiet operation and long-term reliability, backed by a standout 20-year motor warranty. Useful features like Bubble Soak, Hygiene Steam, Pre-mix technology, and Drum Clean improve stain removal and hygiene without being harsh on fabrics. The StayClean Drawer and automatic drying system simplify daily routines, while the Air Wash cycle refreshes clothes without water. On the downside, it has a limited number of washing programs (10) compared to many competitors, and the combined energy consumption is high at 377 kWh per 100 cycles. It also lacks drying level selection, foam control, and smart features like Wi-Fi or AI. Despite these drawbacks, it delivers quiet spinning at 72 dB, includes a wide range of convenience functions, and achieves a high user satisfaction rating of 8.88.
