Sorry to hear of your loss. My niece lost a house to fire and insurance covered nearly all of it. The house was very old so they chopped out the slab down to dirt, starting with all new underground plumbing.
My old Miami house had the laundry on an outside patio with rubber hoses. They only lasted 2 or 3 years before bursting. Since it was outside, I could hear the water running but nothing got damaged.
My condo has supply lines with a woven braided stainless exterior. Probably similar to the brake line in cars. Designed to withstand pressure for years and not burst.
Samsung customer care showed me how to calibrate the drum sensors, but that's only half the problem. Not knowing what's inside, my guess is there are springs that stabilize the drum and I believe they have compressed in the 2+ years I've owned the washer.
I'm unable to spin a cycle of anything. 4 shirts is the limit and they have to be strategically placed in the drum as to not make the machine crash while spinning. This involves turning the water off in the last spin or it will continue to fill the tub again and go through another rinse. That's a waste of a few hundred gallons of water.
Okay, a YouTube search found a handful of washers having the exact problem and it's more than Samsung brand that suffers. They all have similar design and they all fail the same way. The drum is suspended by rods with springs at the bottom. One in each corner for a total of four. At the top of each spring is a plastic cap that acts like a retainer because it holds grease around a rubber sleeve that acts like a shock absorber. The spring is only for the total weight, it's the friction of the sleeve that keeps things under control. As soon as it wears, the drum shakes violently.
That same thing as a car shock absorber... when they wear out, the car starts bobbing up and down because nothing is dampening the springs.
Replacement isn't difficult. Remove some screws, pull some clips and undo a wiring harness to lift the top of the washer. From there you can see where the suspension rods are connected. No special tools needed. Prices for replacement rods vary from $50 for after market to $160 for OEM factory rods.
Many of the videos detail the work can be done in 15-20 minutes by an experienced repairman. I'm debating to make a go of it and allow an hour.
Also, there are some videos for the 'free fix' where they add clamps, insert pieces of hard rubber or replace the sleeve with silicone so it created friction on the rod. It's all experimental... I'll buy new rods. Thanks!
Currently, used Led Zeppelin albums are around $25 to $50 on eBay. Hold on to your old Zeppelin albums and maybe they will skyrocket in value should Jimmy Page pass away.
phat, Firefox with free Adblock Plus and those YouTube advertisements disappear. Only when someone is doing a review and it's part of their review (where they are paid to promote a product) is the only time I see an ad. don't run YouTube as an app. Only run it through Firefox.
All the major cruise lines have full medical staff onboard.
Book your trip when the weather is good. If it's windy and icy cold, you cannot enjoy relaxing on the deck. Take your mom. While she's reading a book, you can be looking for a single guy!

You've swiped me a few times on this blog and I deleted your comments. The CHATTYGRIPPER name calling remains. Did you feel empowered by saying that?
This morning you swiped at rizlared about Philippines and the women there and you also swiped jac_the_gripper about her country.
When you come to my blog(s) and personally attack me or any of the people who comment on my blog YOU are in violation of the rules. I have warned you several times now.
I deleted several of your comments because they are inflammatory and you're only provoking trouble.
Large cruise ships are very stable, It's doubtful you will get seasick. In the US Dramamine is used to control seasickness and available 'over the counter' probably the same in your country.
Are you attempting to play down the charges? Scott Hall was the low man on the totem pole.
According to the latest news, he plead guilty for having helped with the unlawful breach of election equipment and theft of voter data in Coffee County.
An interesting thought about main stream media... When is it fake news if they play a unedited clip of someone saying something that cannot be disputed?
David Wolfe, a lawyer hired to represent Rudy in the Georgia case, filed a notice to withdraw himself from representing the former New York mayor and Trump co-defendant.
Stated earlier, Giuliani’s former attorneys sued him for almost $1.4 million worth of unpaid legal fees, all accumulated through a myriad of lawsuits, investigations, and litigation brought against their ex-client.
