Maytag is similar to Samsung in that the type of the refrigerator is in the first three.
Having recently purchased a new (to us) home with some beautiful Samsung appliances in it, we were quite excited to move. But on the 2nd day in our new home our freezer stopped working. Threw out all the food. Service person did not come for almost a week. He said the PCB and ice maker were broken. He would have to order it and come back. A week later, he comes back, replaces those parts. When I asked why the fridge was leaking he said he didn't know it was (despite the puddle of water that was always on the floor when he came and got his feet wet!) He then says the valve is broken and he will have to order a new one and come back to replace it. He turns off the water to the fridge this time and promises to return soon. Another week goes by, and he comes with the valve. While putting on the new valve, it also breaks. He tells me that he cannot fix the fridge and will put in a report.
Since July 23, when he left, I have been waiting to hear what they are going to do about it. Leaving many messages with Samsung Canada, she returned the first one stating she was waiting for the tech's report and would get back to me as soon as she had it. It is now 10 days later and still no word. Also, on July 30th, the day before my husbands 50th birthday party, with all the party food in the fridge, the fridge part has now stopped working. Late Friday night the light started blinking and according to my downloaded manual this means that the fridge is not reaching the set temperature. So all the meat and food that I purchased for his party spoiled over night. Great!
Today, because it is a holiday in Canada, I decided to phone Samsung in the US and although the girl was very apologetic for my situation, and I expressed to her that it is not her apology I wanted, and that I would like to speak to her supervisor because I would like something done about this situation. She hung up on me!!! Again, very nice customer service.
What does a person have to do to get their fridge fixed/replaced by Samsung??? I am now over a month without a freezer and 3 days without a fridge, the middle of summer, and I am going through 3 bags of ice a day to keep what food I could save cool!
Sorry for the rant but I am extremely frustrated!!!
Samsung TV model numbers use codes to describe the TVs. Once familiar with the codes you can learn a lot about a particular TV just from glancing at its model code.
Note that the below model codes refer to models sold in the UK. Please refer to your Samsung local website for information on model codes sold outside the UK.
Using model UE55F8000AFXZ as an example we can see that:
U = LED
E = Produced for Europe
55 = Screen size (in inches)
F = Manufactured in 2013
8000 = Series. This will differ depending on the features for that individual model. You can find out the specifications for a particular model by entering the model code into the search area on the Samsung website.
A = Features or design
FXZ = Manufacturing information
If you have a UE55F8000BFXZ instead of the UE55F8000AFXZ used in the example the difference between the two models would be a design change, such as a different coloured bezel, but all the other specifications would be the same.
See the charts below to see what the other codes mean.
Example: UE55F8000AFXZ | Meaning: |
|---|---|
U of UE55F8000AFXZ | Q = QLED U = LED P = Plasma L = LCD H = DLP K = OLED |
E of UE55F8000AFXZ | N = North America E = Europe A = Asia |
55 of UE55F8000AFXZ | Size in inches |
F of UE55F8000AFXZ | N = 2018 Q = 2017 QLED MU = 2017 UHD M = 2017 HD KS = 2016 SUHD KU =2016 UHD K =2016 L = 2015 H = 2014 HU = 2014 UHD F = 2013 E = 2012 D = 2011 C = 2010 B = 2009 A = 2008 |
8000 of UE55F8000AFXZ | This number designates the series. The exact specifications of each series will differ by model but generally the higher the series, the higher the specifications on that model. |
A of UE55F8000AFXZ | Feature or Design e.g. this might designate a different stand |
FXZ of UE55F8000AFXZ | Manufacturing information |
Example: LN-T4681FX/XA | Meaning: |

T of LN-T4681FX/XA | Model year T = 2007 S = 2006 R = 2005 P = 2004 N = 2003 M = 2002 |
46 of LN-T4681FX/XA | Size in inches |
