The Ministry of Economy and Commerce said yesterday that the Qatari market is free from those models of Samsung washing machines that are being recalled in the US due to manufacturing defects.
Samsung dealers in Qatar are not importing nor selling these models of washing machines, the Ministry said. Nearly three million Samsung washing machines are being recalled because the top of the machines can unexpectedly detach during use, according to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Thirty-four washing machine models have been recalled.
