Third-party reviews

What we like about Samsung WW90T936DSH/S3

  • A 1600 RPM spin takes out more water before drying.
  • 23 washing programs cover most fabrics and needs.
  • The ECO cycle takes 199 min for a full load.
  • The automatic dosing system handles the detergent for each wash.
  • The night/silent option keeps noise down after dark.
  • Baby care and hygiene cycles suit a home with young children.

What we don't like about Samsung WW90T936DSH/S3

  • At 79 kg it is hard to move, so plan its spot before installing.
  • The spin reaches 72 dB, which is audible from the next room.
  • Each cycle uses 50 L of water.
  • A pre-wash cycle adds time to any wash that uses it.

Verdict

Its 1600 RPM spin is the first thing to notice about the Samsung WW90T936DSH/S3. A fast spin wrings out more water, so clothes are ready to dry sooner. The 23 programs include jeans, shirt, baby care, hygiene and wool cycles. AI technology is built in, and a night/silent option keeps noise down after dark. The ECO cycle takes 199 min, which is a sensible choice for everyday loads. Wi-Fi connection and automatic dosing take some of the work out of each wash. Steam is built in for creases and refreshing. The trade-off is weight: at 79 kg it is hard to move once installed. It suits a buyer who wants a fast spin, many programs and a quiet night setting, and does not mind a heavy machine.
