Some Samsung smart fridges stopped working on Tuesday due to a firmware update.

Korean outlets were the first to report the problems, which affect Samsung’s Bespoke AI line of fridges. Star News Korea, per a Google-provided translation, said that most of the affected devices were four-door fridges from 2024 or later.

The all in ones tend to be heat pump condensor dryers. Which are great, way less power used, and genteler on clothes, BUT take way longer.

I got one, and I struggle to think I'd ever go back to moving laundry over between machines unless I had to, even if it means 2-3 hours for medium load of laundry. It does that in the background anyways.
