Let me start by saying that I was so surprised by the amount of space the Samsung 4.5 cu ft Large Capacity Smart Front Load Washer is so much more than I had expected. As a mom of three sons it’s very important that we have a machine that can handle their football & basketball loads plus our families normal weekly loads.  I fell in love with my front loader on day one. I was so amazed to learn that I could do a full load in just 28 minutes and have the option to run it longer if needed. Front loading machines can sometimes give the appearance that they can’t handle large loads and Samsung is the  leader for their innovation.  I’m a Flight Attendant and often on the road so having the wi-fi connectivity option is so convenient and allows me to control my washer from the palm of my hand.
