Samsung is willing to bet they can make a profit while covering 20 years of repairs, whereas Speedqueen is only willing to bet 3. That says to me the speedqueen is less repairable or Samsung and others expect to weasel out of their warranty.

Yeah, they make them so cheap they can give you 3 machines over the life of the warranty.

But the actual price is cheaper too, do you suppose the 650USD samsung costs 200 USD to build and ship? A 250 dollar machine with a 6 year warranty would be impressive, and triple their profit margin.
