I'm curious as why you guys bought the Sammy vs Whirlpool or Maytag...was it the $100 difference or something else. Had a heart to heart with the Lows guy yest and he was pushing the Sammy, too. Said is was a better macnhine! The way I look at it, Samsung makes DVD players and LCD TV's. They have not been in the Major Apliance buisness as long as the others....any thoughts?
