<\/p>\nThe washing machine has come a long way, from top loader to front loader, and to combo machine that can do washing and drying. Now, Samsung has added intelligence (AI-powered laundry Assistant Q-rator) and coupled with a fast turnaround time (reduce laundry time by half), I am sure you will be delighted as you read on.<\/p>\n

And even the detergent gets special treatment in the name of EcoBubble,\u00a0a process that froths detergent with air and water before the cycle begins,\u00a0generating cleansing bubbles that penetrate fabrics and remove dirt.<\/p>\n
In my opinion, the only downside is the pricing. Read the Press Release for more information, including how you can try it out yourself.<\/p>\n
Press Release<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Singapore \u2013 21 March 2018<\/strong> \u2013 Samsung Electronics Singapore today announced the availability of its revolutionary new washing machine technology QuickDrive™ in Singapore. The QuickDrive™ washing machine provides consumers with the power to reduce the time it takes to complete users\u2019 laundry by half 1<\/span>, offering them the time-saving solution to do more of the things they love. With the washing machine\u2019s Super Speed setting, completing users\u2019 laundry in just 39 minutes 2<\/span>, it saves up to 20% energy without compromising on washing performance 1<\/span> and energy efficiency.<\/p>\n \u201cSamsung\u2019s latest QuickDrive™ technology is the perfect solution for modern homes as it provides consumers more flexibility and control in managing their time and schedule efficiently,\u201d said Joan Ng, Head of Digital Appliances, Samsung Electronics Singapore. \u201cWe are proud to introduce innovations that can help improve consumers\u2019 quality of life without compromising on the quality of our products.\u201d<\/p>\n Improved Washing Performance with Samsung\u2019s Unique Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n Samsung\u2019s QuickDrive™ technology reduces washing time by up to 50% 1<\/span> and energy use by up to 20% without compromising the cleaning performance 1<\/span>. The unique Q-Drum™ consists of a large main drum and a backplate in the back that rotate independently. Unlike conventional washers that move clothes repeatedly up and down over the course of the cycle, the QuickDrive™ washing machine moves clothes from top to bottom in the drum, and the plate in the back of the drum introduces a back and forth movement. This revolutionary dynamic action powered by double forces quickly, gently and thoroughly removes dirt, delivering an intense and complete wash cycle.<\/p>\n The QuickDrive™ technology was also independently tested and confirmed by Intertek. The test\u00a0confirms that although washing time has been reduced, the QuickDrive™ technology still provides the\u00a0same level of cleaning performance and fabric care as existing products 1<\/span>.<\/p>\n In addition, the new QuickDrive™ washing machine features many of Samsung\u2019s outstanding laundry\u00a0technologies, such as EcoBubble™ that froths detergent with air and water before the cycle begins,\u00a0generating cleansing bubbles that penetrate fabrics and remove dirt up to 40x 3<\/span> faster than\u00a0conventional detergent. Users can wash their clothes as effectively in cool water as they would in warm water, saving up to 70% 4<\/span> energy.<\/p>\n Smarter, IoT-enabled Washing Machine for User Convenience<\/strong><\/p>\n Throughout the washing cycle, Samsung\u2019s QuickDrive™ washing machine offers a range of smart\u00a0and convenient features for users. The IoT-ready washing machine boasts an AI-powered laundry\u00a0assistant called Q-rator 5<\/span>, which provides three key smart features that allow users to manage laundry\u00a0more conveniently and efficiently.<\/p>\n The three key smart features are:<\/p>\n The QuickDrive™ washing machine also comes with Samsung\u2019s innovative AddWash™ door, the\u00a0distinctive access door that gives users the ability to add items at any time during the cycle\u00a08<\/span>. From a\u00a0forgotten sock to a delicate item 9<\/span> that only needs rinsing, AddWash™ also allows users to add\u00a0detergent or fabric softener at a later time during the cycle.<\/p>\n With both the Q-rator and AddWash™ features that create a synergistic effect, Samsung\u2019s\u00a0QuickDrive™ washing machine further enhances the user convenience, making lives better and\u00a0easier.<\/p>\n Designed for Higher Durability<\/strong><\/p>\n Equipped with Samsung\u2019s Digital Inverter Technology, the washing machine reduces noise and helps\u00a0reduce energy consumption 10<\/span> while providing exceptional durability 11<\/span>, backed-up by an 11-year\u00a0warranty 12<\/span>. This helps to maintain its impressive washing performance and fabric care in the long-run.<\/p>\n Local Pricing and Availability<\/strong><\/p>\n Samsung\u2019s QuickDrive™ washing machines are now available in the following variant in all major\u00a0consumer electronics stores.<\/p>\n Model \/ Description \/ RRP<\/strong><\/p>\n WW80M74FNOR\/SP \/ 8kg QuickDrive™ Washing Machine \/ $1,549 From April onwards, Samsung\u2019s QuickDrive™ Combo will be available in the following variant in all major consumer electronics stores.<\/p>\n Model \/ Description \/ RRP<\/strong><\/p>\n WD80N74FNOR\/SP \/ 8kg QuickDrive™ Combo \/ $1,799 For more information about Samsung\u2019s QuickDrive™ washing machines, visit\u00a0www.samsung.com\/sg\/quickdrive<\/p>\n Samsung QuickDrive™ at Spartan Race 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n Participants of the Spartan Race 2018 will be able to experience the revolutionary QuickDrive™\u00a0washing machine first-hand at the upcoming race!
