Product review (3 stars): Unbelievably annoying !!!!! noises this machine makes
I cannot express deeply enough how much I hate the f&*@ing noises this machine makes.  It is not just a few notes to let you know your load is finished, it plays on and on and on.  Just when you think your suffering from noise pollution is about to end, it plays another phrase...the whole thing.  Mozart.  Samsung has reuined Mozart.  I emailed their customer service to ask for step by step directions to turn off all the music.  That takes days; sometimes they ignore you longer.  Their customer satisfiction 'survey' doesn't work.  I've never been able to open the link.  I finally did get someone to send me the directions I asked for.  It was successful in turning off the end noises.  But when I open the dryer door while clothes are still damp to hang some of them up, it plays the f&*#@ing music every couple of seconds to nag and nag and nag that I have the dryer door open...I KNOW I HAVE IT OPEN.  I have tried writing back to their customer service people to say they didn't really tell me how to get rid of ALL the annoying music, just some of it.  They are ignoring me.  This kind of electronic music that takes the place of nagging is everywhere in Asia...the elevator, the escalator, the phones, the subway...they must love it.  I think an Asian man designed this, without asking a woman...who in this day and age probably still does most of the laundry, if she wants to be nagged by a long piece of music....over and over and over.
A summary of my review:  Dries clothes quite nicely.  I hate how cumbersome it is to change the time I want it to dry.  I loathe...beyond hating...the noises this machine makes.  The Internet is full of people asking how to turn it off...and Samsung is not listening.  If I had a hatchet, and could find just the right chip in this machine to hack to pieces, I'd do it!
