Looking for Answers about samsung 3.7 cu. ft. Washer?

You are correct! The new WF210 does not have the internal water heater that is necessary to the Pure Cycle feature, and the WF209 does not have a water heater either.

To clean the drum and keep mold and mildew at bay in both of these models, I would suggest running a hot water cycle with bleach (without clothes) once per month. It will also be helpful to leave the door open between loads to keep fresh air circulating, and to wipe down the door and gasket with bleach periodically.

Thank you!

The door on the WF209ANW opens to the left (hinge is on the left) and cannot be reversed.

I HAVE THE 448 WASHER AND IT AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTS THE WATER AMOUNT. UNLESS YOU HAVE A DEFECTIVE MACHINE (CODES OR BROKE DOWN) THE WATER AMOUNT IS RIGHT. FORGET ABOUT THE OLD WASTE FULL TOP LOADER YOU HAVE BEEN ACCUSTOMED TO ALL YOUR LIFE NEW TECHNOLOGY AND LEARNED PHYSICS WORK TOGETHER TO CLEAN YOUR CLOTHES APPROPRIATLY. AS FOR USING 12.8 GALLONS EACH LOAD THAT IS NOT ACCURATE AS I HAVE AN ELECTRONIC WATER SOFTNER INSTALLED IN MY HOME WHICH DOES HAVE AN ELECTRONIC FLOW GAUGE ATTACHED. THE LOADS I HAVE DONE RANGED FROM 12 TO 30 GALLONS (KING COMFORTER ETC...)THESE ARE ACCURATE READINGS . ENJOY YOUR CLEAN CLOTHS, YOUR SAVED MONEY ON ENERGY BILLS, THE QUIETER OPERATION OF MACHINE, YOUR AID TO A GREENER ENVIRONMENT ...THAT LITTLE BIT OF WATER CAN AND WILL CLEAN YOUR COMFORTER JUST RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DONT FORGET TO READ THE DETERGENT BOTTLE FOR EXACT DOSES OF DETERGENT, IT IS ALOT LESS THAN YOUR OLD MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PULL OUT THE INTERIOR DRAWER AN VISUALLY INSPECT FOR BLOCKAGE OF DRAIN HOLE... IT GRAVITY DRAINS NOT ELECTRONICALLY OR BY A PUMP.

Thanks for the question. Since the WF209ANW does not have a water temperature sensor or internal water heater, the temperature of the water entering the machine depends entirely on the temperature of the water being supplied to the machine. It's similar to the experience of turning on the hot water in the sink, and having it take a little time to heat up.

The SK-5A stacking kit is compatible with all current Samsung washer/dryer models, and is available for purchase through www.samsungparts.com, by calling 800-627-4368, or through most major retailers that carry Samsung laundry products.

Thanks for the question. Samsung washing machines, the WF209 included, use approximately 13-15 gallons of water per cycle. It is not unusual to not see water sloshing around because the drum tilts toward the back. The baffles in the washer help to rotate clothing from front to back, which helps to move them through the deeper water toward the back of the drum.

Yes, the WF209ANW does have a lint trap located on the front of the machine.

Thanks for the question!

NO, as far as I know. Because I ask the sales man. But the dryer does. Why the washer doesn't is because of the locking door latch. Thats why it can't be truned around.

Yes

The padlock icon indicates that the door is locked. The door can be unlocked to add a forgotten item even after the cycle has started by pressing the "Pause" button and waiting for the Garment+ (shirt) icon to flash and the door lock (padlock) icon to turn off. Press "Start" to resume the cycle after adding the item and closing the door. It should take approximately 10 seconds for the cycle to resume. To ensure thorough cleaning, Samsung recommends adding items within five minutes of starting the wash cycle.

If this is for a front loader. Check your spin control setting for that cycle.

wrong unless your basement is open to the outisde the temperature down there should be a consistent 60 degrees or so which is perfect and good for you in the summer to cool down in without turning up the a/c the garage should not go to freez e temperatures if so you cannot have the washer there hense ice freezes and will damage machine

Look at your setting before you wash to set up the temp for that cycle. And you have to do that every time. Set it up. Look at the buttons. It easy..

It's a front end loading washing machine. They are designed to use much less water than top loading. The clothes are not submerged in water, but instead, are rotated through the water at the bottom of the drum.

Our Lowe's delivery guys apparently knew what they were doing. They removed the shipping bolts and installed caps. Or they did that at the warehouse before loading the truck for delivery? Anyway, the covers looks like round white plastic caps.

I'm sorry to hear you're having this issue. It will be necessary to disassemble the door in order to clean between the glass and plastic outer shell. Though it is not necessary to have a service technician do this, you may choose to do so. I would suggest calling 800-SAMSUNG to discuss your options.

- Ms. Samsung

Samsung recommends using only HE detergents. If the OxyClean product has instructions suitable for HE/frontloading washers, then I would suggest using as recommended.

Thanks for the question,
Ms. Samsung

Thank you for the question. Please refer to pages 16-17 of the WF209 User Manual for advice on cleaning the washing machine. You may also want to run a cycle about once a month with bleach and hot water to help keep the drum clean and mildew-free. Leaving the door open when not in use will allow fresh air to circulate which will help prevent mold and mildew as well.

Odor is caused by bacteria which can be introduced to your laundry in any number of ways, including through the water supply or from the unwashed laundry. When the bacteria is not effectively removed, it can cause odor.

Samsung recommends cleaning the washer on a regular basis (such as monthly) to help keep the drum fresh smelling and free of odor-causing bacteria. Please refer to page 16 of your User Manual for information on cleaning the washer. Many people find that running a hot cycle with bleach (and no clothes) and leaving the door open between loads can help. It is also important to use only HE detergent to help avoid issues, including odor, that can result from the soap residue.

Finally, if your towels' fabric care instructions allow, I would suggest washing them in hot water with bleach (regular or color-safe, depending on your towels) to help remove odor-causing bacteria.

Thank you,
Ms. Samsung
