    Came here to mention the annoying Samsung tunes.  Would never buy a Samsung washing machine as my Samsung Oven insists in playing an annoying tune when its finished cooking. Wouldn't be so bad if it did it once, but no, it repeats it ever minute or so for 10 minutes. It's made worse by the fact it knows when I've opened the door but still it keeps on doing it. 

    I did hope they would do a software update and stop it, but no...
    Seems strange there is no way to turn it off. Is there nothing in the user manual about it?

    Sounds can be turned off, but that is all of them, so no sound when at temperature or finished cooking at all. I dont mind it playing it once but when I've taken the food out and almost finished eating is a bit much. 

    It's a smart option so i did consider disabling them and setting up something to announce it via alexa but I couldn't be bothered in the end.

    Granted probably not such an issue on a washing machine if they can be disabled.

    When our Samsung went wrong the local washing machine repair man said get a Bosch parts far more readily available in the end went for same machine but Siemens badge as you got 5year warranty for £15 more in price. 
  • Hello
    My current washing machine has gone pop after 13 years so not a bad innings Bosch classixx 6
    2 models have caught my eye Bosch series 2 and a Samsung series 5
    My daughter has the Samsung series 5 and has been pleased with it , has loads more load options than the bosch and also smarter WiFi option also has 5 year guarantee 
    It's also £100 cheaper than the Bosch series 2 which only has 2 year guarantee 
    Not sure which one to choose
    Any owner recommendation welcome 
    Thanks
    Did you end up buying a washing machine as I'm also looking to buy one but I don't know what brand to get.
