How a Samsung smart washer-dryer can make adulting easier
Save time, do your laundry, enjoy life
There’s no manual to becoming a full-fledged adult. When you’re in your mid to late 20s, you’re thrust into a set of responsibilities that will make you realize “oh, I’m really a grown-up now.”
Errands, cooking, cleaning, building, and fixing stuff at home, and probably what anyone in their 20s hates doing: laundry. Also known as the time-consuming boring chore that you still have to do. Lest you run out of outfits to wear.
But as I revel in living a connected life and surround myself with convenient technology, I met a washer-dryer that solves all my woes. Maybe, laundry won’t feel like a chore anymore when you use Samsung’s 13.0 kg Washer 8.0 kg Dryer Front Load Combo.
Thorough washing in just a click
What I dislike about doing my laundry is the constant back and forth. Soaking my clothes with detergent, rinsing them, and not knowing if it’s clean enough. So I do it all over again until I feel it’s extra clean — or until I’m exhausted.
But when you have a washer-dryer that uses AI, you learn to sit back and let it do its job. With AI Wash, the machine automatically senses your laundry’s weight.
And based on that, it decides the right amount of water and detergent to be used. It also has a sensor that checks its level of soiling. This determines if it needs more detergent and how much time it needs to be rinsed.
Let’s say it’s smarter than me in figuring out how to be efficient in my resources. No more wasting water and detergent!
Do all your laundry at once
Speaking of being efficient with my resources, this washer-dryer helps me save time, effort, and water. Having a 13kg capacity lets me clean my clothes in just a single load.
And I don’t even have to take separate days to wash my clothes and other fabrics found in my home. Say, my Turkish and Egyptian cotton towels, faux fur blankets, fleece blanket sleeves, and even a king-sized comforter.
With a bigger capacity for both washing and drying and smart features that speed things up — you can cut your laundry time so you can make more time for things you love.
Thanks to its Q-Bubble technology, this Samsung washer-dryer does your laundry in less than an hour through its proprietary Super Speed, QuickDrive, and Eco Bubble features.
In a way, the washer-dryer moves your clothes through a dynamic drum rotation. Coincidentally, it shoots water and powerful bubbles that help the detergent penetrate fabrics quickly and safely — protecting its color and texture, while also saving energy. Also, the time spent rinsing is shortened due to acceleration in its spin speed.
Suddenly, it’s a chore you look forward to
Have I known washing and drying my laundry can be done quickly, I would’ve loved doing it even when I was younger. But it’s not too late, perhaps? At least you can learn to love doing laundry for the sake of taking care of your clothes.
Samsung’s washer-dryer comes with AI Control, somewhat like a dashboard of personalized data. It remembers your habits, suggests cycles, and displays relevant yet timely information.
And it’s connected to the SmartThings app — which lets you preview your settings the same way you would with other Samsung devices. The app focuses on clothing care when connected and helps you plan your laundry.
To an extent, it picks the perfect drying course and the appropriate cycle to do based on your weather and location. For instance, the app will suggest doing powerful spins on soft clothes when it’s cloudy outside with a hint of possible rain.
Strong yet quiet enough to rely on, so you can do more
Above all, the Samsung washer-dryer gave me assurance that my clothes and other fabrics are taken care of properly. After all, it does intensive cleaning to remove all kinds of bacteria, stains, and dirt. And the machine knows how to take care of itself, too — so that’s one less thing to worry about.
It’s also equipped with VRT Plus and digital inverter technology, so it can perform its job seamlessly yet quietly. No more loud vibrations that let people know you’re doing your laundry.
Peacefully, you can read a book, listen to a podcast, hop on a call with your partner, or plan your weekend as you wait for your laundry to be finished.
With a promise of safe, swift, and thorough cleaning — maybe doing laundry as part of adulting isn’t that bad. Maybe you just need to be equipped with the right tools and technology to make life bearable. And maybe help you save time and resources so you can pursue other stuff that makes life worth living.
