Samsung's Series 9 Bespoke AI is the gadget-lover's choice. Samsung advertises it as using around 55% less energy than the minimum for a Class A rating (its 'A-55%' claim, based on 21.8 kWh per 100 cycles), and AI Wash is designed to adjust water and detergent to load weight, fabric and soil level automatically. A 7-inch Smart Screen and app integration handle cycles and monitoring. The trade-off versus the LG above is price: you pay flagship money for the touchscreen, auto-dosing and headline efficiency figure, and Samsung's reliability reputation sits a little below Bosch and Miele in independent data. Treat the efficiency figure as an advertised manufacturer claim rather than a guaranteed real-world saving. Indicative pricing is around £1,099; confirm current price and specification with the retailer (checked September 2026).
