Description
The Samsung Series 5 WD90DG5G34BBEU Washer Dryer in Black combines a 9kg washing capacity and 5kg drying capacity with a particularly useful slim-depth design, making it an excellent option for homes where installation space is limited.
At just 480mm cabinet depth, the machine is noticeably shallower than many full-size washer dryers while still providing enough washing capacity for everyday household laundry. Samsung technology including AI Energy Mode, AI Ecobubble, Hygiene Steam, Air Wash and SmartThings connectivity adds useful energy-saving, garment-care and smart features.
Finished in sleek black with a tinted black door, it's also an attractive choice for contemporary kitchens and utility rooms.
9kg Wash & 5kg Dry Capacity
The WD90DG5G34BBEU can handle up to 9kg when washing and 5kg when drying.
The 9kg wash capacity is a practical size for everyday family laundry, while suitable loads of up to 5kg can complete both washing and drying without being transferred to a separate tumble dryer.
For larger wash loads, some laundry will need to be removed before drying to remain within the machine's 5kg drying capacity.
Slim 480mm Depth
One of the biggest reasons to consider this Samsung is its slim-depth design.
The main cabinet measures just 480mm deep, helping the appliance fit into spaces where a deeper washer dryer may be difficult to accommodate. Samsung specifies the full depth including protruding parts at approximately 560mm, so that measurement should also be considered when planning installation.
This makes the Series 5 particularly interesting for smaller kitchens, utility spaces and homes where every centimetre counts.
SmartThings AI Energy Mode
Samsung's AI Energy Mode works through the SmartThings app and is designed to help you monitor and reduce energy consumption.
For compatible programmes, Samsung says AI Energy Mode can reduce energy use by up to 70% by using Ecobubble technology to wash effectively at cooler temperatures, although the exact saving depends on the programme and conditions of use.
SmartThings also gives you convenient connected control and access to compatible appliance functions from your smartphone.
AI Ecobubble
Samsung AI Ecobubble mixes air, water and detergent to create bubbles that penetrate fabrics while washing at cooler temperatures.
This is designed to provide effective cleaning while reducing the need to rely on hotter water for suitable loads.
It's particularly useful alongside AI Energy Mode, where lower-temperature washing forms an important part of reducing energy consumption.
Hygiene Steam
For loads where hygiene is particularly important, Hygiene Steam uses steam as part of the wash programme.
Samsung states that its Steam Wash technology is designed to remove bacteria and inactivate allergens, making this a useful programme for items such as bedding and other suitable household laundry.
Air Wash
Not everything needs a complete wash.
Samsung's Air Wash programme uses heated air to help refresh and deodorise suitable garments without using water or detergent.
That can be particularly useful for clothes that aren't actually dirty but could benefit from being freshened before they're worn again.
Super Speed & Quick Wash 15
The WD90DG5G34BBEU gives you useful options for days when time is limited.
Super Speed provides a faster option for everyday laundry, while Quick Wash 15' is designed for small amounts of lightly soiled clothing that need a quick refresh.
That flexibility means you don't always need to run a lengthy standard programme for a small load.
Less Microfiber Cycle
Samsung also includes a Less Microfiber cycle, designed to reduce the amount of microfibres released from synthetic clothing during washing.
For households that regularly wash synthetic garments, sportswear and similar fabrics, it's an interesting additional programme beyond the standard cotton and synthetic options.
Drum Clean+
The Drum Clean+ programme helps maintain the inside of the washer dryer by removing dirt and build-up from the drum.
Regular appliance maintenance is particularly important with a washer dryer because the same drum is being used for both washing and drying.
Digital Inverter Motor
The Samsung Series 5 uses a Digital Inverter Motor, designed for efficient and reliable operation.
With a maximum 1400rpm spin speed, the machine can remove a substantial amount of moisture from laundry before drying begins.
Samsung specifies a spin noise level of 72dB and an A noise-emission class.
Energy Efficiency
For washing alone, the Samsung achieves an A energy-efficiency rating under the current A–G scale.
For a complete wash-and-dry cycle, it is rated E. Samsung specifies energy consumption of 44kWh per 100 washing cycles and 326kWh per 100 complete wash-and-dry cycles under the applicable test conditions.
As we've seen with the other washer dryers, it's important to distinguish between the washing-only rating and the rating for using both functions.

For this model especially, I'd retain both depth measurements on Redmond's page. Someone specifically choosing it because it's described as “Slim” needs to know that 480mm refers to the cabinet rather than the absolute front-to-back installation footprint.

Who Is This Washer Dryer Best For?
The Samsung WD90DG5G34BBEU is particularly appealing to households that want the convenience of a washer dryer but don't have space for a particularly deep appliance.
Its 9kg washing capacity is still generous enough for everyday household laundry, despite the shallower cabinet.
It's also a strong option if you value smart energy management and connected features, with SmartThings and AI Energy Mode providing functionality that goes beyond simply starting a wash programme.
Why Choose the Samsung WD90DG5G34BBEU?
The standout feature here is the combination of useful capacity and slim dimensions.
You still get a 9kg wash capacity, 5kg drying capacity and 1400rpm spin, but in a machine with a 480mm cabinet depth.
Add AI Energy Mode, AI Ecobubble, Hygiene Steam, Air Wash, quick programmes and SmartThings connectivity, and the Series 5 becomes a particularly interesting option for customers who want a feature-rich washer dryer for a more restricted space.
(Samsung specifically designed this model around a slimmer 480mm cabinet.)
