Not quite a GE filter-flo with the same feature of days gone by, but cool to see it reappear.

Samsung "Activewash"

Only use I can see is using that little tap to add extra water to the basket.
Such sink is too small to soak anything, unless we're speaking two socks or a lacy T-shirt, size XS.
Also, draining the soak/pretreat solution would easily cause a splash all over the lid and drawer, leaving white-ish residue that would need to be cleaned after.
Dust and dirt accumulator and another magic attachment that would require longer cleaning than actual use, at least to me.

A Review

That I read somewhere said that the 'sink' was too shallow to be useful. Of course you cannot soak something in the sink while load is washing underneath.

Great for pre-treating or hand-washing

So Samsung basically admit that their top loaders are neither capable of removing stains on their own, nor of washing delicate items...

*feh*

I'd assume that with the way new machines are, if you added water with the "sink" before the wash, it would just drain it automatically when it senses more than a few drops in the sump. And I'm sure the little water spicket is locked out once a cycle begins.

It could be useful for small items but with our lazy society I'm sure it'll just sit in a closet or be stuffed behind the machine to collect dryer lint.

The LG pedestal washer, however, I could see using that. There are three white button ups with colored stripes on them in this entire house, but they're never dirty at the same time, and I don't really feel washing one shirt in the giant washer is necessary, but I also don't want to wash it with the normal whites with bleach, so that mini washer could prove useful in that situation.
