Purchased Samsung washer and dryer, am happy to report no RFI from either.
Called Samsung on this side of the pacific, was told they have had no
complaints.

putting front load technology (computer/switcher) in top load

Don,
Many thanks! I'm forwarding this email to the RFI list, where there
has been considerable discussion on this topic.
