New technological trends appear not only in smartphones or computers, but even in washing machines! For example, did you know about Samsung's Eco Bubble technology? This new option is being actively implemented by washing machine designers, helps save energy and even takes care of the environment! Our material will help you understand what this option is and how to use it.
What is Ecobubble in a Samsung washing machine?
Ecobubble is otherwise called eco mode. The name lets us know: using it reduces the consumption of electricity, detergents and water. At the same time, the quality does not suffer at all - in this mode, both white and colored items are washed well. The principle of eco mode is to saturate the water with air bubbles. This helps to literally “push” dirt out of the fabric fibers without damaging them.
This technology first appeared in Samsung washing machines; this brand is considered its developer. The essence of its work is a special foaming device, which creates a thick foam filled with millions of oxygen bubbles from a mixture of water and washing powder. The foam delicately cleans almost any fabric, while effectively removing even stubborn stains. Foaming can significantly reduce the consumption of laundry detergents, and also eliminates the need for additional heating of water.
Feature Benefits
The Ecobubble option is an advantage of models in the middle and expensive segments. Therefore, it would be logical to find out what the advantages of such models are over conventional washing machines.
- The developers of the technology claim that the foam formed in the drum is 40 times more effective at removing contaminants than a conventional solution of powder and water.
- The foam also acts as a protective layer for the fabric, preventing damage to the fibers and premature wear of the fabric.
- Additional water heating is not required. 16 degrees is enough for the same effective washing as in a regular washing machine at 40 degrees. Thus, the electricity used to heat water is significantly saved.
- A uniformly dissolved product works more effectively. Forget about lumps of powder and undissolved gel granules left on your clothes.

What is Eco Bubble and how does it work? It's worth knowing!
Eco-bubble technology was developed by order of Samsung, and it is the washing machines of this manufacturer that are equipped with it.
To generate bubbles, a special generator is installed inside the equipment. Before the wash cycle begins, the mixture of detergent, water and air creates foam. Any detergent, even capsules in a shell, dissolves quickly and completely. The mixture penetrates thoroughly and deeply into the fabric, dissolving any contaminants. The manufacturer guarantees that foam penetrates materials up to 40 times faster than in washing machines without this system!
What else is different about Eco Bubble washing machines?
Bubble washers are front-loading machines and are not built-in in most cases. The solution would be to place the equipment under the countertop or place it in a special cabinet.
According to the brand's recommendations, the washing machine must be serviced regularly. A special Eco program is used for cleaning. Hot water and a quick spin cycle keep the drum, membrane and door glass clean. In this case, there is no need to add detergents. Maintenance mode should be activated after 40 wash cycles.
Remember that although Eco Bubble technologies are implemented in Samsung devices, not every washing machine from this manufacturer is equipped with them. Most models have an active foam function and a steam wash program. The first option will cope with even the most stubborn stains, and the second mode will deprive each item of bacteria and germs.
Eco Bubble aerates water, which has a softening and antistatic effect on fabrics. Then there is no need to use fabric softeners unless you want your clothes to have a specific smell.
An interesting solution used in many models is drum lighting. When there is something in the washing machine that should not be there, you will easily notice it and be able to react in time. Same with the additional door . This allows you to add additional items to your wash.
The latest models of washing machines have a Wi-Fi module . With it, you can easily control the device via an application on your smartphone. If you have multiple Samsung devices , you can use the SmartThings program to create a so-called smart home, and you can remotely control every gadget in your home.

Pros and cons of the ECO BUBBLE machine series
The main disadvantage is that Samsung Eco Bubble washing machines belong to products of a higher price category compared to conventional models.
In addition, users noted increased levels of noise and vibration in inexpensive models. But this is inevitable, since affordable prices are achieved by the manufacturer mainly through the use of cheaper components and reduction in functionality.
Unconditional savings in water, electricity and detergent while maintaining normal quality is the main advantage of using machines with this technology. The life of clothing is extended by reducing the amount of wear and tear it experiences when washed. The washed item does not change color or shape; in such a machine you can safely wash the thinnest and most delicate items of clothing and linen. All these are strong arguments for giving preference when choosing a washing machine to the “Eco Bubble” series.

Disadvantages : It did not open during the first wash, the door after washing) does not remember the last wash mode.
Comment : Maybe I’m writing a review too early, there were only 5 washes, but if I change the review and if not, then everything is fine! )) after the first wash and the music played, the doors did not open, I had to put them on the spin cycle, and after the spin cycle they opened! Then there were no problems with the door! I set the spin cycle to 400 rpm, all that remains is to dry the clothes outside, ,, here they write that the socks get stuck between the glass, I threw in half a bucket of socks + pants, 2 jackets, nothing got stuck!) I put 1.5 tablespoons of powder, everything is fine!

Pros : Great car, collapsible tank. There are many modes, but not all have been figured out yet. You can throw in the laundry while washing. You can change the mode. There is steaming and some other nice things, but we haven’t mastered them yet.
Disadvantages : So far the only drawback (but only for us) is that it puts quite a serious load on the network. This is at the lowest temperature. The three kilowatt gasoline generator is very strained. But it works. Shakes noisily when spinning on a perfectly flat floor. But I haven’t adjusted the legs yet. So I checked, it is stable, maybe something else needs to be done.
