    Overview

    Thanks to Samsung’s innovative features, generous capacity, and smart technology, this 9kg heat pump dryer will provide large and busy families a convenient way to dry their laundry.

    With a 7-star energy rating, this dryer optimises drying cycles to deliver thorough drying while reducing wastage. By reusing heated air, the heat pump technology cuts down on energy use, while Samsung’s OptimalDry technology monitors every load to ensure every cycle is efficient and precise. If you have seasonal clothes that have been sitting in your wardrobe for a few months, or you want to freshen up bedding from your linen cupboard, the AirWash feature lets you deodorise and refresh stale fabrics. For busy households, small loads of 3kg can be quickly dried in as little as 81 minutes with the SuperSpeed function and only 35 minutes with the Quick Dry for a small load of regular wear. If noise is a concern, you can worry no more. Samsung has integrated a noise reduction system which utilises sound-absorbing materials and an algorithm that optimises the spinning speed to minimise disturbance in your home.

    This dryer features Samsung Q-rator feature, which acts as your personal laundry assistant using your smartphone. This intelligent laundry assistant not only takes the guesswork out of drying programs, it also monitors, manages, and troubleshoots your machine so it continues to operate with unmatched efficiency.
    Drying Rack

    The tumble-free drying rack helps you quickly dry delicates without the risk of unnecessary damage.

    Diagnose problems with your smartphone

    If you ever experience problems with your Samsung dryer you can use the Smart Check which is an automatic error-monitoring system. Just download the Samsung Smart Washer app on your compatible smartphone to easily troubleshoot the problem without having to immediately call a technician.

    AirWash

    Samsung’s AirWash technology uses heated air to neutralise unpleasant smells in fabrics, so you can refresh garments between washes. You can select between three options depending on your needs: light, normal, and strong odours.

    OptimalDry system

    Using multiple smart sensors, the OptimalDry system can detect the conditions in every load such as temperature and moisture levels. This helps to maximise efficiency while ensuring your garments are protected from damage due to overdrying.

    Great until they break - awful service from there
    Great fridge until it broke 5 years later. Engineer could not get the motherboard and that was it. It’s supposed to have a 10 year warranty… Samsung don’t supply the parts to fix it so you are stuck when it breaks. . Never again.

    Worst Dryer I've Ever Owned
    Why in the 21st century can a company not make an appliance that has one job - to dry clothes? After ridiculously long cycles, clothes are still damp and if you put in more than one sheet they are still wet once the cycle finishes. I've tried all the recommendations - less items, more items, different cycles, and settings. At the end of day trying to simply dry your clothes shouldn't be this difficult, and even when doing all the recommended steps this dryer still fails miserably. Will never buy or recommend a Samsung laundry product again. Stick to TVs.

    This would have to be the worst dryer we've owned
    This dryer is great if you won't need to dry sheets or anything that may generate lint. Sheets get tangled within themselves (as does any other washing in the dryer) and the smart sensor thinks they're dry when they're not. You have to use a fixed time setting and even then it can be 4 hours+ of drying to dry the sheets. Lint production is out of control and often there is lint around arond the door and in the hinge which is difficult to remove. We have to vacuum out the lint trap every second load to prevent this from happening. We don't have particularly plush or fluffy stuff so I'm surprised there is so much lint as never had this with a previous dryer. Customer support hasn't been that helpful in solving this (although did send a tech out to replace the door - the tech is lovely and realy helpful). We got this dryer to meet the demands of a family with small kids as we have to wash lots of bedding. It's actually easier to dry sheets hanging over doors than in this dryer. NB, the Samsung washer is great!

    Questions & answers

    Does it need to be attached to the laundry sink to drain? Nattii · 2020-11-07
    Hi there, Thank you for your question. The dryer comes with a built-in water tank that collects the water from each cycle, which needs to be emptied regularly. Alternatively, if you do not want to use the water tank, you may install the drain hose to empty the water. Kind Regards, Appliances Online Milly, Appliances Online
    Can the heat pump dryers be safely stacked on a front loader or are they too heavy? Anonymous · 2020-01-09
    Good Afternoon, Thank you for this question this will depend on the washers measurements underneath the Samsung is very deep generally these are placed on the floor side by side on a supported benchtop that is able to take the weight. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Can this be wall mounted? Kell · 2019-02-13
    Hi Kell, No, unfortunately heat pump and condenser dryers cannot be mounted on the wall. Kind regards, Appliances Online Jay, Appliances Online
