I was so happy to have the opportunity to get the Samsung Smart Dial Washer. The machine has two areas to wash clothes, a top load for small loads and the bottom for regular/heavy duty loads. Both sections have an area where you can put your liquid detergent and fabric softener before it starts to wash. Not having to wait for the rinse cycle to start to put softener in is great. There are many options from light wash to heavy duty. The bottom washer is so spacious. I am able to do one load with this machine compared to two loads in other machines. When you cut the machine on, its very quiet. I didn’t realize the machine was on until I walked pass it. Once your wash is up, the machine plays a little music to let you it’s done and that’s all. My clothes come out well washed and smells fresh.  After using it for the past month, this is the best washing machine I've ever had .
