Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Doesn't work for long

Glenda 3/9/2022

we bought this dryer 2-3 years ago. just after the warranty expired, the heating element went out. my husband ordered a new one on 3/4/21 and replaced the bad one a few weeks later. it is now 3/9/22 and it has gone out again. samsung is great with phones, but not appliances.

Broken

Greg 9/17/2021

appliance is broken and does not generate heat anymore and is out of warranty after one calendar year. multiple heating elements were installed to try and fix the issue but were not successful. there are better options available on the market.

Ughman 3/20/2021

you cannot, like actually cannot shut off the very long, very loud, very annoying song that plays upon load completion. it plays a full 30 seconds. there is not a function like other models to disable it. dryer is besides that mediocre, performance could be suffering due to blocked ducting, will be cleaning that next week so hopefully these reviews can be updated. rating stands though, it's a really annoying dryer that gets the job done. wish i had taken my time and chose differently.

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Tawni 1/6/2021

this is not a quality dryer. i bought my washer and dryer set 5 years ago, and have had to fix the heating element 4 times. samsung will not cover as it is out of warranty, and i have researched many people with this same issue who were told by samsung they cannot assist them either. samsung may be a big name with electronics but not with their washer and dryer sets. it cost me $250 every few months to fix this dryer, and it continues to happen over and over. i now have to scrap it and have an old used dryer until i can afford a new one again. this is super disheartening as i do not make a ton of money to be replacing such large expensive items. i will never ever buy samsung again. poor customer service, they are selling subprime products for an extreme price

Don't waste your money

John 10/14/2020

steer clear of this product. i have had this dryer for about 4 years. in that time frame i have replaced 2 idler pulleys, 2 sets of drum rollers, and now for the second time in a year i am replacing the heating element. i refuse to use their repair services because i have found all the parts for half the price they would have charged. i highly recommend you look else where for appliances. when i bought this house it came with all samsung appliances. each of these appliances has had some type of issue that i've had to fix. the dryer is by far the worst one. i will never purchase a samsung appliance again!

Annoying Chime

Bek7 8/20/2020

i love almost every aspect of this dryer. the major deal breaker for me though, is the long chime and the fact that there is no way to turn it off! very disappointed in the making of this appliance!!! i have kids and they don't need to be awaken by a stupid chime every time i try to do laundry!

Twq4500 8/7/2020

very unhappy with the quality of my samsung dryer. its not even 4 years old yet and i already have to replace all the rollers , at $39 a piece and there are 5 of them. i went to see if there was anything that could be done to help ease the cost of such an expensive repair but they sent me a link a phone number for a place to buy parts from. i guess i expected more from a company like samsung.

nance23 4/19/2019

Had this dryer for a couple of years now and all of a sudden it turns on but when you hit start to do a cycle the drum won't turn. Called support and tried everything. I should have known better to buy one of their products. Had one of their LED TV and it died after 3 years. A man at Best Buy told me he has a lot of them doing that right after the warranty expires. Never going to buy any of your products again!!!

Junk after 2 years

Brad08 3/29/2019

We bought this product just about 2 years ago on the dot and it already is done. The machine ran great and had no problems until this past week. It goes through the drying cycle fine but when it turns to the cooling mode, the heating element doesn't shut off. The unit gets so hot you can barley touch the outer shell. It continues to run like this until it is shut off manually by pressing the power button (fire hazzard). Got one error code about one week ago and it was HC which is incorrect heat or something. I am pretty handy so where the warranty was up after one year i wanted to fix it myself. We could barley find any information on this code and all everyone wanted to do was send a technician out.

Nothing but issues

Shopmom 1/29/2019

I LOVED this dryer the first 6 to 12 months I had it. After that I started having issues. I have owned it 3 years and had someone out to fix it twice under warranty and now, less than a year after the warranty is up, the motor blows and another expensive fix. Needless to say, I am buying a new set and I will never touch a samsung appliance again. Between this and the exploding washer sitting next to it, I have no faith in the company when it comes to appliances anymore.

Ashpj3016 1/25/2019

Bought this dryer brand new 2 years ago. Within the first 6 months I had the worst squeaking you could imagine! Called and got a repair man out and paid to have the PLASTIC pulley replaced. Worked fine for about her few months and then boom pulley goes out again and so does the heating element! Just had the repair man here yesterday for the 6th time in 2 years to fix it and he says the next time it breaks he won't come to fix! On top of that we have paid out of pocket for all repairs bc Samsung has told us it would be weeks for a tech and parts to be ordered. Who has time for that?!? DONT BUY!!!

3 Years and It's Toast

Stepbennett 1/20/2019

Bought it at Lowe's about three years ago. Took forever to dry clothes. About three months ago, it started making a bumping, shattering sound. Then, about a week ago it started running like a well-oiled machine. And, then today it stopped drying altogether.

I'm sure there are other good Samsung products out there but this one I wouldn't classify as a good investment. The belt no longer has traction and drum no longer spins. dryer motor still works. This looks to be a hard fix.

Poorly made, poor reliability

SABBAX 12/29/2018

We bought this dryer 2 years ago when our 6 year old Whirlpool dryer died. We were very happy until the idler pulley failed 13 months after purchase. After replacing the pulley it ran well for 9 months until the heating coil burned out. When we went with Samsung we thought we were purchasing a quality product with good reliability. We really like the features and look of the unit but hate that I have to keep spending money on fixing it. After researching this I am finding that these are common problems with this particular model. It seems that companies are no longer using quality parts. Really disappointing!

Unacceptable 12/12/2018

Bought the dryer less than 3 years ago, Had to call for service twice. Second time the repair estimate is $349. I am officially done with any Samsung appliance. This WAS my 3rd appliance, dishwasher failed after 1 month, microwave after 2 months. End of story.

I just purchased this dryer a week ago and the first dryer delivered would not power on even after checking the breaker, power from multiple locations with a multimeter, and the previous dryer that I own which worked as soon as it was reconnected. I just received my replacement and the same problem of no power is happening.

Poor lifetime

Pherrhen 11/9/2018

I bought the set of matching washer and dryer.. washer is great! The dryer was until it suddenly stopped one day, only 18 months old. Samsung tech support was not helpful or empathetic to the fact their product did not last. They asked me to Power it off for a minute and back on... seriously??? Like I had not tried that already! I've checked the belt, it's fine. According to my issues it's the motor... so the motor is out on a dryer used one day a week and is only 18 mos old, and now I have to pay for repair because their product that's not even two years old, is faulty. Exact reason I stopped buying their TV's and phones because they last short periods of time!

Best dryer I've owned

Territoo 11/1/2018

Technology is ever changing. My dryer works as expected and is an upgrade. It has had two error codes that have rendered it useless as both I and the repair men had difficulty finding the fault. Once we found the error it was an easy fix just the not knowing was frustrating. Suggest a manual with how too diagnose.
