Third-party reviews

What we like about Samsung WW80FG3M05AW/ET

  • A 20 year motor warranty covers the part that does the work.
  • At 46.5 cm deep, it suits a narrow space.
  • The 1400 RPM spin gets clothes drier.
  • Steam helps freshen clothes between washes.
  • The 8 kg drum takes a family load.
  • An inverter motor drives the drum.

What we don't like about Samsung WW80FG3M05AW/ET

  • There are only 3 programs, so choice is limited.
  • Only white and black finishes are available.
  • At 85 cm high, it cannot fit under a worktop.
  • Front loading means you bend to load and unload.

Verdict

A shallow body makes the Samsung WW80FG3M05AW/ET a sensible pick for a small flat or a tight corner. At 46.5 cm deep, it suits a narrow space, and its 8 kg drum takes a family load. The spin reaches 1400 RPM, so clothes come out drier. Steam is built in, which helps freshen clothes between washes. The motor carries a 20 year warranty, which is a long promise. There are only 3 programs, so you will rely on a few basic cycles for everything. There is a display, and the machine comes in white or black. It is a self-standing model, 59.5 cm wide and 85 cm high. It suits a buyer who washes often, wants a simple machine, and needs a shallow fit more than a long list of cycles.
