Awesome video, I’m moving to a smaller place in a couple of days and your video gave me the idea to do this and hopefully have some space because ours will be in a closet now instead of a room. Do you know how tall the whole thing is when staked I’m scared our closet isn’t tall enough. Looked to see if you already mentioned it but I didn’t see it. Hopefully I’m not asking a question twice

Thanks for the video. On the dryer cord length issue, I think it’s becoming more common to see the receptacles placed around 3 ft high on the wall to allow easier access while still being hidden behind the appliance, which would definitely be more convenient all-around.

That's actually how they do it in my country (Bosnia) with the power outlet for washing machines specifically (in the bathroom). Never really understood why because nobody I've known stacked or even had a dryer, I just assumed it was to make the outlet available for other appliances as well without having to move the washer. But now that I've bought both washer and dryer and want to stack them I realize why. I guess I'm just too advanced for my country. haha 😂

I haven’t had that issue. Check that your machine is spinning ok when empty? Verify the feet are level underneath? Also ensure that your washer is on the bottom and dryer on top? Those are the main things that come to mind. I wish you the best.

It might be that way. In that case use self tapping screws to add additional support if you don’t feel it will be secure enough.
any suggestions for the washing machine they brought it to me today I tried it when there were 10 minutes left when it got fast the spin started to shake and even jumped and sounded hard, it's new from lowell the store but I had to turn it off because it was jumping and shaking I really don't like that washer and dryer at all

It sounds like the machine is unbalanced. Immediately call lowes and they will send back the installation crew to adjust it. Also, you might take a look at the four adjustable feet underneath each corner and try to lower any corner that appears to not be firmly touching the ground. These feet move in/out simply by spinning them. I wish you the best.

I need a dryer to stack mine, are these kits “generally” interchangeable with Samsung products? My washing machine is black stainless and im trying to find a black stainless dryer and concerned it’s won’t “match” the washer but seems to me it’ll work fine….. as long as they are similar size obviously. The correct matching sizes.
@ApacheRanch

I believe they are. The bracket is not extremely specific to either unit. There is a base flat area and the screws in the back can vary in location in the brackets. For only about $25-30, I think a kit is worth a try. I wish you the best.

Yeah on mine I believe that only one screw lined up with an existing hole. I added a second screw by creating a new hole. Can’t remember if I showed that in the video or not. Honestly they don’t really move around much and one screw is probably fine. It’s really just guiding it there.
Is that the same unit where the washing machine controls the dryer?

6 years is a good run for a washing machine, especially without knowing how often were you using it or how much laundry do you typically load it with. Perhaps you even had a tendency to load it over the maximum capacity without thinking about it, who knows... I don't see the need to complain about it, honestly. In fact, Samsung is way better than most budget brands and they also have an extended 5-year warranty (that clearly guaranteed more than 5 years of trouble-free service in your case). On top of that, modern Samsung machines all work with minimum of vibrations and with a 20-year guarantee on inverter technology for electromotors. I know because I just bought 2 brand spankin' new ones, a washer and a dryer and they're fantastic. They even have the clever tech that determines if it's overloaded or not.

I loved my Samsung set when I first got it. But at 6 years old we have to make the decision to repair or replace. And repairing is almost terrifying. Dryer got repaired 2 years ago and power button sometimes doesn’t work, multiple repair people. Samsung customer service is awful. Usually do 5-6 loads a week. Rest of my family has different brand of washers does 5-7 loads a week and has had them for 10 years. Mother in laws was 15 years old when she replaced hers this month.
Is it ok to put the washer on top of the dryer?
@ApacheRanch

The washer is MUCH heavier than the dryer... I would not suggest doing that.
How incredibly absurd that they have designed this to have the dryer sit back when these things are so deep already and people struggle with the dryer vent! I'd rather build a shelving system to hold the dryer above the washer so they're equal facing. Absolutely stupid design on Samsung's part.
