TurboSteam is legitimately useful—throw in a wrinkled shirt, 20 minutes later it's presentable without an iron. The sensor dry actually works, unlike cheap dryers that guess.

The vent sensor is a genuine safety feature—it warns you when lint buildup restricts airflow. Most house fires start in the dryer. Samsung wants to keep yours standing.

AccuDry, Wrinkle Shield
Gas if you have a hookup—it's cheaper to operate and dries faster. Electric if that's your only option. Heat pump if you can't vent outside.
Overloaded dryer, left sitting too long after cycle, or over-dried. Load loosely, remove promptly, don't run longer than necessary.
At least annually. Lint buildup is a fire hazard and makes your dryer work harder. If clothes take multiple cycles to dry, your vent is probably clogged.
