We have an LG. Front loads.
Wife wanted front loads as they use less water, detergent, energy and less wear on the clothes (no blade in the washer tub to turn the clothes).
Maybe it's just newer (replacement of 15 y.o. Units that came with the house), but it's also quieter.
We do have the steam feature, it's nice to have if you got a shirt that's not really dirty but just want to freshen it up and wear again. We've only used it 3-4 times in 3 years of ownership.
Extra care is required for front load washers. Keep door open to air dry, wipe down gasket as water does get trapped and yield a moldy smell. And once in a while run a light bleach cycle to clean the tub.

One more thing about FLs - esp. when getting the clothes out of the dryer.
Always put the laundry basket under the door - there'll always be a towel / sock that falls out. The last thing you need is to get a freshly piece of clothing dirty again (esp. if your washer / dryer is in the same place as your garage entrance).

FWIW, I bought everything Samsung wrt kitchen appliances + W/D. (TV ended up being an LG for the 'smart remote') ...
The POS french door fridge LCD display has 2 stuck 'pixels' on it after ... 8 mths use... POS.
W/D are fine, but they're not sexy blue LCD - they're red, but working fine.
