Samsung washing machine weight

When choosing a new washing machine, buyers usually focus only on the most important characteristics: load volume, number of programs, cost, energy efficiency. Few people specify how much the equipment weighs, but in vain. Its resistance to imbalance and vibration largely depends on the weight and size of the Samsung washing machine.

Let's figure out what the average weight of Samsung washing machines is. Let us explain what advantages heavy machine guns have over light ones. We'll tell you where to look for information about the weight of equipment.

Where do you get information about the weight of equipment?

Finding out how much a specific Samsung model weighs is very simple. Information on the weight of the washing machine is presented in the technical data sheet or instructions for the equipment. It’s a little more complicated if the machine is bought secondhand and there are no documents for it. But even in this case, scales are not needed; all data can be found on the Internet.

In the search bar, just enter the model of the Samsung washing machine. Almost all manufacturers post electronic copies of instructions on the Internet. When the washer is very old, it may be difficult to find documentation, but it's worth a try.

On the Internet you can find instructions for almost any Samsung SMA.

When buying new washing machines, everything is much simpler. The websites of large stores provide a description of each model. In addition to the main characteristics, such as capacity, dimensions, functional “filling”, energy efficiency class, etc., you can also see the weight of the equipment there.

Why are heavy washers better than light ones?

Many buyers, in pursuit of compactness, choose lightweight models.They strive to minimize difficulties in transporting and transferring equipment. However, if you compare two machines that are identical in functionality, differing only by five kilograms of weight, then the heavier machine will win.

The heavier the washing machine, the better it copes with imbalances and suppresses vibrations.

During washing, the drum of an automatic machine generates centrifugal force. The higher the engine speed, the higher the load on the washing machine body, and, as a result, the stronger the vibration. Light equipment is unstable, so it begins to “jump” during the spin cycle. Heavy appliances are less prone to wobble.

Heavy washing machines compared to light models:

• work more quietly;
• more stable;
• almost not subject to vibrations;
• more spacious.

Therefore, there is no need to pursue lightweight washing machines only for the purpose that they are more convenient to transport, move and carry. Transportation of the machine will not be required so often, but constant wobbling of light, unstable equipment will be observed during each wash. The more the machine weighs, the less prone it is to vibration.

It is very important to look at the weight of a Samsung washing machine when selecting built-in appliances. Here you need to take into account the maximum weight the furniture can support. In this case, purchasing a lightweight washing machine will be justified.

Many buyers are surprised why narrow machines weigh more than full-size units. Everything is simple here - they have a smaller support area, so manufacturers do their best to make the equipment heavier to prevent imbalance. Typically, compact models have larger counterweights.

How heavy are Samsung machines?

The range of washing machines from the Korean manufacturer is quite wide. On average, the weight of Samsung automatic machines is 55-65 kg. The line includes units weighing 70-79 kg. The scatter is very large, so you should focus on a specific SMA.

Let’s imagine a weight analysis of this brand’s equipment. We'll tell you how much some Samsung washing machines weigh and what dimensions they have.

• Samsung WW80R42LHES. Modern washing machine for 8 kg of laundry. EcoBubble technology allows you to effectively combat stains while maintaining the original quality of the fabric. The steam function helps to destroy 99% of bacteria and allergens from things. With standard dimensions – 60*45*85 cm, the model weighs 55 kg.
• Samsung WW90T554CAX/LP. Spacious model for 9 kg of dry laundry. The front washing machine is installed permanently, equipped with a display and an inverter motor. The EcoBubble generator provides ideal washing quality even in cold water. A distinctive feature of the SMA is the intelligent Al Control system. The weight of the machine is 67 kg. The height and width of the case are standard, 85 and 60 cm, respectively, and the depth is 55 cm.
• Samsung WW90T4041EE. The machine is capable of providing truly deep cleaning of laundry using steam. The washing machine is equipped with a reliable inverter motor and a drum for 9 kg of clothes. The height, depth and width of the case are 85, 55 and 60 centimeters, respectively. The weight of the machine gun is 62.7 kg. As you can see, it is lighter than the previous model of similar dimensions.
• Samsung WW10T634CLH. Front machine with a very large drum for 10.5 kg of laundry. This is one of the heaviest models of the brand, weighing 76 kg. The washing machine measures 85 cm in height, 60 cm in width, and 57 cm in depth. SMA is characterized by maximum energy efficiency.There is a steam supply option.
• Samsung WW70R62LATX. Narrow washing machine with reloading option. The drum is designed for 7 kg of laundry. The machine is equipped with an inverter motor, a steam generator, and a display. The model weighs 55 kg with a body height of 85 cm, depth and width of 45 and 60 cm, respectively.

Thus, the weight of washing machines, even with the same body dimensions, may differ. It is better to opt for heavier equipment if you purchase free-standing equipment. In the case of built-in machines, you need to be more careful - here you must take into account whether the furniture will withstand the load that the machine gives.
