Samsung has begun shipping a new line of AI-infused Bespoke laundry products in space-saving formats that pair smart functionality with innovative design.
The new collection includes the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo, the brand’s first all-in-one washer and dryer, and the Bespoke AI Laundry Hub, a stacked front-load washer and dryer integrated into one product. All were designed to save space, time and energy while using AI technology to take the guesswork out of doing laundry, the manufacturer said.
“Laundry rooms come in all shapes and sizes and today’s homeowners are investing in the design and functionality of this once overlooked space more than ever before,” said Shane Higby, senior vice president and head of home appliance business for Samsung Electronics America (SEA). “Our new Bespoke AI Laundry lineup empowers consumers with more choices, offering flexible designs and innovative new features that simplify laundry tasks.”

The all-in-one Combo unit features a modern design with signature Samsung Bespoke details, including a flat panel glass door and dark steel finish. Its 5.3-cubic-foot-capacity drum is the largest in its class, Samsung said, and a full laundry load can be washed and dried in 98 minutes using the Super Speed cycle setting.

The Laundry Combo also features a 7-inch LCD display that serves as an intuitive, easy-to-use control center, plus machine-learning functionality that “remembers” user habits and personalizes their experience with cycle suggestions based on clothing type and cleaning preference. The unit also responds to voice commands via Samsung’s Bixby digital assistant, and its ventless heat pump design means its only installation requirement is a standard 120V power outlet.
The Combo carries a $2,199 price point, and is presently hitting retail sales floors.
The more traditional stacked AI Laundry Hub, like the Combo unit, is equipped with Samsung AI OptiWash and AI Optimal Dry technology, which automatically optimizes the Hub’s washing and drying performance. It also has a similar Flex Auto dispense system that automatically dispenses the ideal amount of detergent and fabric softener for every load. When both compartments are used for detergent, it can hold enough for up to 34 loads, Samsung said.
The Hub lineup includes three models in satin green, brushed black or white finishes, with the option for gas or electric dryers at suggested retails of $2,099 and $1,999, respectively.
