Product review (1 stars): not recommended
purchased this dryer along with matching washer just shy of 2 years ago.  Dryer drum cracked and after consulting with a local repair company learned that this is common with this dryer.  Repairman put cost of replacement drum at around $200 plus labor and no guaratee replacement drum would not also crack.  Did some checking online and a number of other consumers had the same issue with this dryer.  cutting my lossess and will be purchasing a whirlpool or maytag dryer to replace this cheaply made expensive item.  will not purchase anything Samsung in the future other than perhaps a TV.  Would not recommend this product even though at the time Conusmer Reports recommended it.  Good luck finding a repairshop to fix it once damaged.
