Which washing machine is better, Haier or Samsung?
When choosing a new washing machine, many people consider models from well-known and reliable manufacturers. So, Samsung and Hier appliances are quite popular, and sometimes buyers are simply torn between these brands. Let's figure out which automatic machine, Haier or Samsung, should we give preference to? Which equipment “wins” and why?
Which washing machines performed better: Haier or Samsung?
Of course, you shouldn’t focus solely on the brand of the washing machine when choosing equipment.. You should always look at the main characteristics of the model, such as drum capacity, set of functions, number of washing modes, spin speed, energy consumption, etc. Also, before purchasing equipment, it is advisable to study user reviews in order to note for yourself all the disadvantages and advantages of the machine.
Haier washing machines are produced by a Chinese manufacturer. Among the advantages of this brand’s equipment, users highlight:
- economical consumption of resources - Haier machines consume a minimum of water and kilowatts, which helps to pay less for housing and communal services;
- compact body dimensions with sufficient drum capacity;
- intuitive controls;
- multifunctionality - the cheapest models have various options and additions stored in their memory that improve the quality of washing;
- wide model range - you can choose a machine of the required dimensions, from super-narrow to full-size;
- stylish design.
Automatic machines from the South Korean manufacturer have been on the market longer than Hayer equipment. Over several decades, Samsung technology has earned the absolute trust of users.People are even willing to “overpay for a brand” just to purchase the most reliable device.
If we talk about Samsung machines, there are also quite a lot of advantages:
- high technology of equipment;
- branded Diamond honeycomb drum, providing excellent washing quality and delicate handling of laundry;
- variety of models in the line;
- efficiency;
- high quality of assembly and components;
- Availability of a power supply control system. All models are protected from power surges.
Equipment of any brand can break down over time. When choosing a washing machine, you should pay attention to its maintainability. Finding components for both Hayer and Samsung machines is quite simple; service center specialists are well acquainted with both brands. The cost of the parts is approximately the same, so it is impossible to single out a clear “winner” here.
Analyzing the energy efficiency indicators of washing machines, we can conclude that most Samsung models have an energy consumption class of “A” or “A+”, and Haier has “A++” or “A+++”. This is a point for the Chinese brand. If it is important for you that the machine is equipped with an inverter motor, then such units are found in both the Hayer and Samsung lines.
When choosing between Haier or Samsung, pay attention to the characteristics of individual models, as well as user reviews about them.
For example, let's compare two models with approximately the same cost. This will help you understand how the washing machines differ from each other. Consider Haier HW60-BP12959A (30-36 thousand rubles) and Samsung WW65K42E08W (31-35 thousand rubles).
The machine from the South Korean brand has the following technical characteristics:
- capacity up to 6.5 kg;
- energy efficiency class – “A”;
- water consumption per cycle – 39 l;
- maximum spin – 1200 rpm;
- 12 washing programs;
- noise level – up to 73 dB.
Among the unique technologies of the Samsung WW65K42E08W automatic machine is the EcoBubble function. Due to the bubble effect, maximum washing quality and detergent savings are achieved. A special device generates air bubbles that penetrate the fabric fibers, eliminating dirt.
AddWash technology makes it possible to load things into the Samsung WW65K42E08W drum after starting the wash through a special hatch. Another advantage of the model is the branded Diamond drum and ceramic heater.
The Haier HW60-BP12959A washing machine has the following characteristics:
- loading – up to 6 kg;
- energy efficiency class – “A+++”;
- spin – up to 1200 rpm;
- 12 washing modes;
- noise level – up to 70 dB.
Both models are equipped with an inverter motor. However, if we evaluate manufacturability, then in this example the Samsung washing machine wins. The machine from the South Korean brand is more functional, so it’s better to opt for it.
Which washing machine models are more expensive?
When choosing which machine to buy, for many people the deciding factor is the cost of the machines. But here, too, Hyer and Samsung equipment go side by side, differing in price quite a bit. Let's figure out what savings you can get by choosing this or that brand.
If you look at the most budget models, you can buy a Hayer machine for $190, and a Samsung machine with similar characteristics for 20,500 rubles.
If we compare models in the middle price segment, we can see that the cost of similar machines is approximately the same. The price difference between Haier and Samsung is approximately 5-8%. However, even if Samsung machines are more expensive in some places, they can please users with wider functionality, for example, the option of reloading or bubble washing. If you compare the Samsung WW70R62LATX machine, which costs $490, and the Haier HW100-BP14758, which costs $500, then the capacity of the Chinese model is greater – 10 kg versus Samsung’s seven. Hyer’s energy efficiency class is also higher – “A+++”.
The maximum spin speed for the Samsung WW70R62LATX is 1200 rpm, for the Haier HW100-BP14758 it is 1400. Both options are equipped with a direct drive inverter motor. However, the South Korean machine has the function of reloading and bubble washing. These technologies may be decisive for someone when choosing equipment.
Thus, there is no significant difference in price between Haier and Samsung washing machines. The models cost about the same, and each machine is better than the other in some way. Here you need to look at what is more important to you - large capacity and powerful spin, or the ability to throw things into the drum after the cycle has started.

Throwing things in after starting the wash is important for me, something constantly pops up, and I’ve already started the machine.
