Neff vs Samsung Dishwashers

Neff and Samsung both sell dishwashers that appeal to buyers who care about performance and connectivity, but they sit at different price points. Neff offers four integrated models from £489 to £799, including the Neff S155HVX00G at £489 and the Neff S875HKX21G slimline at £549. Samsung has two models: the Samsung DW60BG730FSLEU, a 13-place machine with nine programmes at £449, and the Samsung DW60DG760FSLU4 Series 6 at £549.

Neff's signature features are Flex 3 racking with foldable tines and a dedicated cutlery drawer, the Chef 70°C programme, Zeolith drying and Home Connect control. Vario Speed Plus can cut programme time by up to 66%. Samsung relies on WaterJet Clean, with Flex Load System and Aqua Stop on the DW60BG730FSLEU, and its Series 6 adds Auto Door Open, SmartThings app control and an Extra Silence programme. Neff's models are all fully integrated, while Samsung's two models cost £449 and £549 and both connect to SmartThings.

Neff suits people who want a premium integrated machine that dries well and works with an app, particularly the S875HKX21G slimline for a compact kitchen. Samsung suits tech-minded households who want SmartThings control and quiet running at a lower price. The Neff S155HVX00G at £489 is £60 less than the Samsung Series 6 at £549, though Samsung's model adds app features. Samsung's parts can be costly and its smart features need a stable WiFi connection, while Neff's repairs can also cost more than budget brands. Consider how much you will use app control before choosing.

Bottom line: choose Neff if you want Zeolith drying, Home Connect and integrated fitting, starting at £489 with the S155HVX00G. Choose Samsung if SmartThings control and WaterJet Clean matter more, and you want to spend from £449 for the DW60BG730FSLEU.
