I caved in and replaced our 10+ year old still working washer and dryer with a Samsung pair about 2 months ago. I was reluctant as I am sure many of you are with all the electronics and stuff that could go wrong on these new units. But I kept the old ones in the basement just in case something goes wrong and have a 5 year extended warranty on the new set. If one has issues I can swap in one of the old units in literally a few minutes.
I hooked up my kill-a-watt meter on the washer and was blown away that it only used 0.15 kwh on the normal wash setting for an entire cycle. Our most recent city water bill was also reduced by about $30 and that was with only 2 months of use. The dryer has dried clothes in a fraction of the time of the old one due to the 1200 rpm spin cycle on the washer. The clothes are just damp coming out and cut my dryer run time in half. So far I am very impressed.
