Second Chance Samsung WD90T754ABT AddWash - 9/6kg

With the Samsung WD90T754ABT I was able to wash laundry quickly and then dry it right away. I use the app to choose additional programs and see exactly how long the washer-dryer combinations are still running. The detergent drawer does feel less firm.

sleek design
The first thing I notice about the washer dryer is the black glass door. Together with the black display, this gives the device a sleek and modern appearance. With the silver dial I can easily choose the different programs that appear on the display. This way I can clearly see which program I choose. With a choice of 24 washing and drying programs, I can be sure that I always wash my clothes correctly. The detergent drawer does feel a bit less firm.

Fast and hygienic washing
Due to a busy job, I was mainly on weekends. That's why I like that the laundry is ready quickly, so that I don't have to spend my entire weekend doing the laundry. The QuickDrive drum shortens the program time by 50%. Thanks to the AddWash valve, I also throw forgotten items in the wash during washing. Handy when I come across a lost sock or romper on the attic stairs. I have sensitive skin, so I regularly wash my clothes at high temperatures. The washer dryer combination has a hygienic steaming program. During washing, the machine adds steam. This removes pollen, animal hair and bacteria. I no longer suffer from itching and skin irritation.

Wash and dry in one go
My young daughter regularly stains her and my clothes while eating. Because I want to get jam and pasta sauce stains out of my clothes quickly, I regularly do a small wash. For example, on the Superspeed program, my clothes are ready for drying in 30 minutes. When I immediately switch on the drying program, the washer-dryer combination runs for 3 hours. That seems long, but it is fast compared to other models. If it really only concerns a few items of clothing, then I opt for the short program. In 15 minutes you have clean laundry and within an hour everything is washed and dry.

Many options with the app
I easily connect the washer-dryer combinations with SmartThings. By pressing the phone symbol on the display, the device connects to my WiFi network. I choose which program I want to use via the app. I can also adjust the rinses and the speed and see how long the program still lasts. So I'm just working downstairs and I automatically get a notification when the washer-dryer is ready.

Recently purchased this machine from Coolblue to have the possibility to dry laundry.
We live in a small house so two separate machines were not an option in terms of space.
When ordering, you will be asked whether the deliverers (for a fee) should connect the machine. I did not choose this.
About 5 minutes before arrival I got a call that the delivery guys are coming and if it is on the ground floor.
On arrival they unpacked the machine neatly, took the old one out of the house and delivered the new one just inside the door. TOP!

The washing machine is easy to install. At the back, only the screw bolts had to be removed and an empty hot wax turned and it was ready for use.

When switching on the machine you can choose from all different washing programs with the rotary knob.). You can also choose a program for drying only.
On the main screen the temperature, amount of rinses and the spin speed can be set. In addition, there is a button where additional settings can be set, such as dryer settings (automatic or specific drying time), the quickdrive option for faster washing and functions such as prewash and bubble soak.
These options cannot be set for every washing program.
The door in the washing machine also has a special flap that allows you to add a forgotten item of laundry while the washing program has already been started. This function is automatically turned off when the temperature inside the machine exceeds 50 degrees Celsius.

The washing machine is relatively quiet in operation. You can hardly hear it during washing and drying and the vibrations are not too bad when spinning. Compared to our previous samsung washing machine. +/- 8 years old.

A wash-dry program does take quite a long time. For example, a cotton wash program at 40 degrees and the drying setting on cupboard dry takes about five and a half hours. This is not a hard time but an indication. When you have less full in the washing machine, the program will also be finished earlier. About 30-45 minutes difference.

The clothes always come out clean and he also removes unpleasant odors well from the clothes. Especially if you use it in the steam mode. With this you even get old sweat odors from shirts and socks.

Samsung also has a mobile app that you can use with the washing machine. You can create a washing program via the app and upload it to the washing machine so that you can switch it on immediately. He also seems to have an option to turn on a washing program at home via WiFi, but that option has never been used here. I do know that when you have to manually turn this on at the washing machine and the door is locked.

Some things we noticed:

-Setting and choosing the right washing program + settings takes some searching and getting used to in the beginning. Because the operation is not done in a traditional way with a rotary knob where every program is written down and buttons for prewash, extra soiled laundry, etc., it takes a while to find where everything is.

-A complete wash-dry program takes a very long time. under 5 hours your laundry is not cupboard dry. This is somewhat understandable because it is a hybrid machine.

-Compared to a normal dryer, the clothes come out slightly more wrinkled because the drum is smaller and the laundry is therefore crammed a little more.

-After a wash-dry program there will be some fluff that is stuck to the rubbers of the door. In principle, this is not a problem because it will wash away next time.

The machine makes relatively little noise and dries well, even with a maximum amount of kg of laundry. The eco mode takes quite a while (more than 7 hours, washing and drying). The addwash door does not open in 1 go. Drying leaves a lot of dust on the next wash. You have to get used to the rotary knob to find a program, a little less clear than an 'old-fashioned' button.
