Samsung DV210AEW 7.3 Cu. Ft. White Stackable Electric Front Load Review

Samsung DV210AEW 7.3 Cu. Ft. White Stackable Electric Front Load Dryer
Customer Ratings: 2 stars
Buy Now
We bought the Samsung DV218AEW dryer from Lowe's in March 2009. The heating element first burned out on us only 17 months after we had purchased the product, which of course was out of warranty. We contacted Samsung to locate a local repair shop who came out and replaced the heating element for $160. We have been diligent about cleaning our ducts and getting rid of lint, but the stupid heating element crapped out again tonight. We've owned the dryer less than 3 years and have now had the heating element burn out twice. A quick Google search shows that we are certainly not the only ones. Samsung dryers are terrible--DO NOT BUY SAMSUNG DRYERS!

Given the number of complaints relating to the cracking and subsequent barrel bending; rendering the dryer useless. Perhaps, a class action law suit would be in order. Each state has its own lemon laws, but clearly Samsung is aware of these issues and continued to manufacture and sell this product.

I too am a victim of Samsung's fraud, misrepresentation and negligence and will be filing my own suit for damages. Reporting them to the new Consumer Protection Bureau and pursuing restitution utilizing the courts.

However, for those who have not yet become one of Samsung victims. Please make the right choice and choose another brand.

After using our dryer a yr and 2 weeks I saw a hole in the back of the drum metal where it looked cracked and had ruined quite a bit of our clothing from getting caught and ripping it! I have been without a dryer for over a month now. Samsung has lost a customer BC their taking so long to send out the replacement which in fact cost just as much as I paid for the stupid thing!!! Really!? So angry right now. If you think about buying this model hope it doesn't happen to you!

This deserves zero stars. The heating element has gone out twice in 3 1/2 years. $320 to fix it. Total junk, don't buy it. In fact, don't buy anything by Samsung. I have had problems with several Samsung products. I won't ever buy another samsung product, ever.

Although it firs glance the item seemed cheap, it does exactly what it is designed to do. No more drafts. So simple and very effective.

We had a space under the front door that allowed a cold draft to sneak in. This is just the ticket! It is easy to install and looks nice. At first I wasn't so sure, because the tube is made of cardboard and the fuzzy sleeve slides over it. No worries, it rolls along the carpet and stays put. Works perfect.

This is made cheap. The rolling part of this is like the inside of a wrapping paper roll. The brackets bend & the part that sticks to door does not stick. Amazon emaiiled me to ask what I thought. I told them. No response.

I bought this thing to replace my Mr. Coffee mug warmer. This Brookstone is basically useless as a warmer unless you are perhaps using a mug with an entirely FLAT bottom (which would allow more contact with the heating element.) I've yet to see such a coffee mug however, and I have looked a lot.

The Mr. Coffee I own is adequate in that it keeps the coffee warm, though not nearly as hot as I'd like. The Brookstone, with it's "high and low" heat settings doesn't improve things any, as even on the high setting it is not as hot as the Mr. Coffee model.

I purchased this to replace an identical warmer that lasted for several years in almost daily use in my office. My old one did not have automatic shut-off, and as a consequence was sometimes left on as long as over a weekend. I've titled this review "Better than expected" only because of the many negative reviews associated with the product. After using the new one for a couple of months, I can report that it performs exactly as advertised, and the automatic shutoff is a much appreciated added feature. I use several different styles of coffee mugs on this warmer, all with rimmed bottoms. Set on high, the warmer keeps my coffee HOT. Just barely cool enough to drink. And, it looks cool too.

Luckily, a friend gave me this Brookstone warmer (used) so I didn't waste any money on it. She gave it to me because she accidentally broke the $5 Target cup warmer I had. I thought "oooh, a Brookstone. looks fancy" but it's mostly useless!

My cheap Target warmer kept my drinks much, much hotter. This barely keeps them above room temperature. And I thought it was because it was used that maybe it had lost its effectiveness. I can see by the other reviews, that's not true.

I can't believe how much this costs new. What a waste.

I wish I could find the same Target model I had, but I've never seen them there again :(

Honest reviews on Brookstone Beverage Warmer

I purchased this expensive item (from an Amazon seller; fulfilled by Amazon) because it has an auto-shutoff feature. That worked, but the base of the warmer became so hot that if it had not been on a glass surface, it would surely have scorched the wood. I returned it as defective and hoped to hear back from the seller offering a replacement, but I did not. It makes me wonder if the product was actually working properly but designed very poorly.

This product is pretty much worthless. I first tried with a mug that had a raised ring bottom (i.e. not a lot of contact area). That one didn't work at all. I brought in a stoneware mug with a completely flat bottom still didn't keep the coffee hot. Used it on the high setting.

I contacted Brookstone directly. They completely blew me off. Would not do a thing for me.

For all the users who have had this fail. There is a minor "flaw" with this product, but failure can be avoided easily.

There is a thermal fuse in the product located near the side of the device. You should maintain 10 inches of clearance around all sides (no towels, etc.) to prevent the thermal fuse from overheating causes the device to "fail". This fuse is intentionally sensitive to avoid the product from causing a fire.

(Ideal design would have been a resettable PTC fuse, but this would increase cost).

The temperature control is from a bimetallic switch whose tension is controlled by a screw connected to the knob. Internals are well built and mounted, albeit simple. Appropriate heat shielding is used.

Otherwise don't expect magic. I purchased this for a sous vide and intentionally chose a simple cheap product. However caveats for users expecting fast temperature response: while it heats very quickly, it cools very slowly. (I did not rely on the thermostat to control the temperature, the included thermostat only very roughly controls the temperature and allows it to fluctuate wildly.)

Edit 9/10/2012

So far no issues, fairly constant use. For users wondering I find it draws around 8 Amps (max amperage). A 6 Amp breaker will trip when running this device (I would size all wiring for 15 Amps, but that's just me).

Also the top surface is very heavy, which causes it to hold a great deal of heat if you are building a sous vide I would try to maintain the temperature of the surface to your desired temperature. (eg place your thermocouple near the bottom of the pot, I let mine touch the bottom).

Edit 12/13/2012

Note: Your mileage may vary: the HIGH temperature setting does still regulate the temperature. Aka setting it on HIGH isn't going to just cause it to be constantly powered. This I don't mind. If it were to be constantly powered it would without doubt blow the thermal fuse, and with my PID controller it doesn't really affect anything.

I don't usually write reviews of products, but when I saw the overwhelmingly negative reviews this product has received, I had to speak up. I've had one of these for several years, and it's been working -and still works -flawlessly. I use it mostly for keeping a pot of tea at the temperature I like throughout the day, and I'm quite pleased with how well I can control the temperature of the hot plate.

The heating plate is cast -something, and it holds heat well. It does everything I want it to do exactly as I want it to do it, and the price is pleasantly modest. What more could I want? I don't know what planet these other folks are on, but the reason I returned to this product page is to buy a second one for my office!

Although it appears to be a great product for the first couple of months... when it's done.. it's done! It simply STOPPED working after 2 months. If you purchase this item, be certain you purchase the small appliance replacement warranty from Amazon.. because the manufacturer certainly will not replace it!

I ordered several different hot plate single burner cookers to see which one I liked best, and this one won. It's sturdy and heavy.. and unlike all the others, it can be CLEANED....which greatly prolongs its life..Impossible to clean the others... so they get tossed after a few months. Some of the cheaper models didn't heat properly after a while, and even became an electrical hazard so had to be discarded. This one seems to be a better made unit.

The control settings are accurate, and nice to have 3 cook settings, plus a 4th 'warm' setting.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I obtained this product to use in the area of my flat where I keep my computer. Since office buildings often are extremely over-heated in winter, the heat which it produces should be suited to those who tend to become chilled easily. I tried it in October, well before the season when I'd be placing my thermostat at the 65 where it remains all winter, and found it produces only minimal heat. Whether it will get me through the winter chill I cannot say.

It does have some drawbacks. It's compact size and cord holder are definite 'pluses,' and it is energy efficient. However, the directions cautioned against placing it on a desk or tabletop, and instructed that it should be three feet from furniture and fabrics. I was unable to feel much heat from a distance of three feet, and I also would question whether many people would have enough space to keep such an appliance that distance in open space.

I bought this for my cubicle area, since the building management keeps all the offices so cold. I love it so much.

It's a lot smaller than I had imagined it to be, but this thing packs some heat!

I love the fact that it is so quiet. I keep it under my desk, and I can't even hear it.

PROS: Quiet. Compact. Packs some major heat,

CONS: The High setting gets too hot sometimes, while the Low setting doesn't get hot enough. Wish there was a Medium option.

I would definitely recommend this product to anyone out there. M

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The Bionaire Office Heater is really well designed for its purpose: to heat your immediate workspace. It's reasonably quiet, which is really important in this context, and it emanates a good amount of heat to keep you comfortable when there's a chill. It's a very basic device: no thermostat, no oscillation/rotation.

Having the motion sensor is also a very good feature. The office or plant manager doesn't like it when employees waste electricity by leaving a heater going all day. This one turns off itself when there's no motion nearby after about 15 minutes.

Right now my wife is using it at her desk in school (she's a teacher). When winter is over, we're planning to use it in the bathroom in our little, unheated spring/summer/fall cottage where nights and mornings are cool all year round. I'll update this if I actually do get to try it out in that setting.

Honest reviews on Bionaire BCH4562E-GM Office Heater with Worry Free Motion Sensor

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program ...and this is the perfect little heater for those who do.

We have not had sufficiently cool weather where I live to give this a thorough test. I took it to the country with me where I borrow a friend's unheated cabin occasionally, but the coolest it got at night was mid 50s. Still, that's chilly enough to want some comforting warmth. I plugged in the heater and was surprised at how well it and now quickly it warmed things up.

I was not expecting much because the thing is very dinky. It's less than one foot high (official measurements: 7.2 x 9.4 x 11 inches). But be warned, it is a localized heat. It will not warm up a room, just a couple of square feet. Which is plenty for an office, for for nights when you are nestled in a chair with your book and just want a little extra warmth. If you place it under the desk, your feet will be very warm, but not so much the rest of you, although you can feel some difference. I'd put it to one side so the heat can rise and not be trapped under the desk, or just put on an extra pair of socks and put the heater right on the desk if it was very cold. It doesn't take up much room and can feel warm without being buried up to the eyeballs in sweaters.

The Motion Sensor feature is fun, in that it somehow senses you are gone (I once married a man who didn't know I went away for the weekend...he said thought I was taking longer than usual in the shower). This is not only a safety feature (in the heater, not in the husband because nothing could save him), but also fun. You can try sitting very, very still and fooling the device into thinking you have gone. It can't find you but it didn't sense you leaving. You can almost see the mystified look on its little face, little worry lines forming, as it wonders: "Where did she go...I didn't feel her leave...did I doze off on the job? Did she fall? I can't even call out to her...what have I done? God Forgive Me..." and just when the little thing is at the edge of an emotional breakdown, you wriggle around and say "Fooled Ya!"

When you live alone, you do things like this. Cut me some slack, okay.

Anyway, this is an excellent little gizmo, very compact. It puts out an ideal amount of heat, not too hot, not too cold. It is perfectly quiet, no irritating humming noise, and that automatic shut off is an excellent feature. There is a place on the back where you can wrap the cord when not in use, although I do prefer leaving it out so I can trip over it. It adds a little excitement to the day.

If you are one of those people who hate airconditioning and make other people in the office miserable by always sneaking the dial up to 78, this is for you. If you want to warm a small area, relax with little extra heat, and not worry about falling asleep without shutting the machine off, this is ideal. And if you enjoy sitting on the porch or patio when the weather turns cool, this will keep you nice and comfortable.

And the price is right too.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program PROS:

1. Small size makes it great for the office. Unobtrusive.

2. Generates surprising heat. Even on lowest settings.

CONS:

1. A little loud for me. A subtle hum. Some may find it soothing as white noise.

2. Heat doesn't distribute. Heat emanates intensely directly in front of device for a short distance. If you move it back enough the heat feels more dispersed, but this isn't a "general area" heater. It heats directly in front of itself. Maybe creative placement could help this issue.

3. It wobbles. Distracting. It's only perceivable because the power button isn't quite secure and jiggles constantly. Might just be the one I received.

It does what it is supposed to do. I have a 30 feet by 12 feet wood shop and it keeps the building cool or warm. I use dust extraction so no problem with clogging it up. plus i clean the filter every week. A little medium pressure air from my compressor and the unit gets clean. I chose this unit because it runs on 230VAC. So does my dust extraction system. Now when I make saw dust it goes into a bag and not my lungs

The remote does work. I just dont have a reason to use it.
