Just saw the commercial of child in tub with Mom giving the favorite stuffed animal a 'bath' in the new Samsung with "Power FOAM Technology". Unbelievable what manufacturers will come up with next...it is already bad enough how the average Joe and Jane add way too much detergent just to see suds in their laundry. The foam was above the mid-point on the door!?! I wonder if they have beefed up the pump to handle all of that...hmm

The foam is supposed to penetrate fabrics faster... who knows.
Panasonic uses a similar technology to dissolve detergent: the detergent is flushed in the tub and then the drum begins to spin slowly. There are videos on YouTube of this system. I think the suds it created died down within two minutes. I think the YouTube channel to look for is "ad1969it" |

![]() My first thought was, don't we buy HE detergent and watch the dosage to prevent this from happening? I am with others, I hope they beefed up the pump and seals to handle this. OR I wonder what the life expectancy is on this machine? In any case I could do this in my Maytag, Just buy regular Tide.
I also wonder what rinsing is like?

![]() Almost no washer durability problems are caused by using too much detergent. But the reverse is quite another matter, too little detergent causes the great majority of main seal failures in FL and TL washers which always leads to main bearing failure and usally machine replacement. Too little is also the leading cause of water pump failure, to say nothing of machines covered in mineral deposits, mold, mildew slime and just plain stinky. |
