Samsung WA45T3200AW – Specification & Overview
The Samsung WA45T3200AW is a 4.5 cu. Ft. high-efficiency top-load washer, designed to offer large capacity, energy savings, and gentle care for all types of fabrics. It uses VRT+ (Vibration Reduction Technology) to keep the washer quiet even at high spin speeds, and includes a Soft-Close Lid to prevent slamming. With a digital control panel and rotary knob, it’s user-friendly and modern. It supports eight wash cycles, including Normal, Heavy Duty, Bedding/Waterproof, Quick Wash, Delicates, Deep Wash, Rinse + Spin, and Self Clean.
The spin speed goes up to 700 RPM, which effectively removes excess water, reducing drying time. It features five water temperature settings (Hot, Warmer, Warm, Cool, Cold) and multiple water levels (Low to Extra High), letting you customize each load depending on fabric type and soil level. The washer includes Extra Rinse, Spin Only, and Smart Care—a self-diagnosing feature you can access via smartphone.

This model uses Samsung’s Diamond Drum Design, which protects fabrics while thoroughly cleaning them. The Heavy Duty cycle is ideal for large or heavily soiled loads, while Deep Wash uses extra water for stubborn dirt. The Delicates cycle ensures gentle cleaning for sensitive fabrics.
Cycle Options Summary:
- Normal: everyday clothing
- Heavy Duty: towels, jeans, etc.
- Delicates: lingerie, soft fabrics
- Bedding/Waterproof: blankets, comforters
- Quick Wash: lightly soiled, small loads

These cycles are designed for optimal fabric care, energy efficiency, and washing performance.
