Third-party reviews

What we like about Samsung WF90H09C4ST2

  • An inverter motor comes with a 10-year motor warranty.
  • Voice control works with the SmartThings app.
  • The transparent door lets you watch the wash.
  • The outdoor or sport cycle suits muddy or sporty clothes.
  • The fast function cuts time on a quick load.
  • Noise emission class A keeps it quiet in use.

What we don't like about Samsung WF90H09C4ST2

  • At 77 kg it is hard to move for cleaning behind it.
  • At 77 kg it is a tough job up a flight of stairs.
  • At 9 kg, bulky bedding will need a separate wash.
  • Spin-drying efficiency class B can leave clothes a little damp.

Verdict

Weight is the first thing to plan for with the Samsung WF90H09C4ST2. At 77 kg it stays put during spin, but it is hard to move. The 9 kg load suits a couple or a small household, and at 60 cm wide it fits a standard gap. The transparent door lets you watch the wash, and the silver finish is a neat match for steel appliances. The inverter motor carries a 10-year warranty, which is a reassuring number for a machine you keep for years. Voice control and the SmartThings app let you run the machine from across the room or from your phone. The outdoor or sport cycle suits muddy kit. It suits a buyer who wants a smart, neat machine and is fine with the weight.
