Third-party reviews

What we like about Samsung WW60A3120WE/ET WW5000T

  • Each cycle uses 43 L of water.
  • The ECO cycle takes 198 min.
  • The 40 cm depth fits a narrow space.
  • The motor is covered for 20 years.
  • It uses 9460 L of water a year.
  • Automatic drawer cleaning takes care of the detergent drawer.

What we don't like about Samsung WW60A3120WE/ET WW5000T

  • The 6 kg drum is small for a family wash.
  • There are only 12 washing programs.
  • The spin is loud at 74 dB.
  • There is no foam control system.
  • There is no AquaStop system to guard against leaks.

Verdict

The Samsung WW60A3120WE/ET WW5000T is a compact washing machine with a depth of just 40 cm and efficient energy consumption of 55 kWh per 100 cycles. The Digital Inverter motor comes with an exceptional 20-year warranty, and steam technology ensures deep garment sanitization. The Bubble Soak system with EcoBubble technology enhances the removal of tough stains through a 30-minute prewash, while the StayClean drawer and drum self-cleaning function keep the machine in optimal condition. It has a 6 kg capacity and a maximum spin speed of 1200 RPM. Weaknesses include the absence of a foam control system, load balancing system, anti-crease function, and only 12 available washing programs. The drum lacks a special design to protect fabrics.
