This is a fantastic machine. We have had multiple dryers over the years, both vented and heat pump. This one is better than anything we previously owned. Many condenser or heat pump machines take a long time to run through the cycle. This one is quick and dries the load properly. It is really easy to use too - no thinking about which programme and how dry it needs to be, just select the type of load (towels, bedding, etc) and let the machine take care of it. Proper result every time. We haven’t had a Samsung before (previously used Hotpoint, Hoover, Bosch, AEG) but have been delighted with the performance of this machine and will certainly consider Samsung for other appliances in the future. Would definitely recommend this model.
