Samsung dishwashers, like any other appliance or appliance, have a model number that allows you to know the characteristics of the dishwasher, including the width, year of manufacture of a particular model, sales region, etc.
Samsung adjusts to the peculiarities of customer perception of the type of dishwasher in a particular country and indicates those parameters in the name that is of most interest to customers when choosing a dishwasher.
For example, in the USA, it is customary to emphasize the feature of a dishwasher. Hence you can find such names as StormWas 48 dBA Dishwasher in Tuscan Stainless Steel or Smart Linear Wash 39dBA Dishwasher in Tuscan Stainless Steel.
In the UK, it is customary for the name of a dishwasher to specify the series, size type, and several sets of dishes that can be washed in a single load.
You might see names like Series 6 Freestanding Full-Size Dishwasher, 14 Place Settings, or Series 6 Built-in Full-Size Dishwasher, 13 Place Settings.
But that’s just a trade name created primarily for marketing purposes. No matter what the manufacturer calls the dishwasher, it always has a model number that provides more detailed information about it. The model number is also used to find parts in parts catalogs.
