We've replaced our handle once already about 2 months ago and it has just broken again! Seems to be a design flaw.We've replaced our handle once already about 2 months ago and it has just broken again! Seems to be a design flaw.

You need to buy a new 'handle'. to open the door for the time being, disconnect power and then use a coat hangar to pull the latch towards you, ie. outwards

Laundry load is unbalanced, manually loosen any tangled laundry.
If only one item of clothing needs washing, such as a bathrobe or jeans, the final spin result might be unsatisfactory and an UE error message will be shown in the display. Unbalance error is cleared by POWER switch OFF and back ON.
We have a WM-1480FHD, with the door stuck shut. It appears the door release mechanism in the actual door has broken, so when you pull the lver part, the catch is not released. You need to get a very flat knife,insert between the door and the front of the machine, right in the middle behind the release handle and push the hook towards the right side of the machine.Once open, you can check the release mechanism in the actual door. Ours is broken, so need to sort out how to repair/replace it next!

I have a Samsung j1045 front load washer and once turned on, it wouldnt
move to any washing cycle or turn off. I would have to unplug the
cord from the jack to prevent any danger. Please help me and give
me a solution as I have a mountain load of washing to do.
