Third-party reviews

What we like about Samsung WW90DG6U85LB/U3 WW6400D

  • The 61 L drum takes big loads, such as duvets.
  • Energy class A keeps bills low for a machine this size.
  • Six spin speeds give more control over each load.
  • Automatic dosing takes the guesswork out of detergent.
  • Wi-Fi connectivity lets you control it from a phone.
  • A night or silent option keeps late washes quiet.

What we don't like about Samsung WW90DG6U85LB/U3 WW6400D

  • There is no anti-crease function, so shirts need more ironing.
  • The spin-drying class is B, so clothes come out wetter.
  • Each cycle uses 50 L of water, which adds up on heavy use.
  • There is no fast function for a quick wash.
  • There is no foam control system to deal with excess suds.

Verdict

The Samsung WW90DG6U85LB/U3 WW6400D is an A-rated 9 kg washing machine with 1400 RPM spin speed and 44 kWh energy consumption per 100 cycles. This model features advanced AI technology that learns washing habits and the Auto Dispense system for precise detergent dosing. The machine includes EcoBubble technology, which creates a powerful foam mix of detergent, water, and air for effective cleaning at lower temperatures. With 24 washing programs including Quick 15', Eco 40-60, Baby Care, Denim, and Sports, it brings versatility to laundry care. The machine runs quietly at 72 dB during spin cycles and comes with a 20-year motor warranty. Smart features include WiFi connectivity through SmartThings app, voice control, Home Care Wizard diagnostics, and automatic pairing with compatible Samsung dryers. The StayClean drawer automatically removes detergent residue, and the AquaStop system prevents leaks. On the downside, the machine lacks foam detection, anti-crease, and anti-allergy programs, uses 50L of water per cycle, and has a 228-minute Eco cycle duration.
