It's not normal. The heater resistor stays on after the water is drained, causing it to overheat and bend/gets warped, touching the spinning washer cavity. That is a timer problem/fault that causes the heater to stay on after water is no more present. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND GOT IT FIXED. If you don't fix it, the heater will bend even more, touching the spinning cavity more=MORE HORRIBLE NOISE.My samsung had MANY PROBLEMS. Will never buy samsung again.
You should not be getting that tapping noise. There is something wrong there. It might not cause you any problems today or maybe even this years, but some eventually it will.
I have a similar samsung model and it does that when it is trying to get the load balanced but has always gotten lined out by itself. if you are still worried check and see if you removed the shipping bolts from the back of the machine.
@ N8ked919 -- Ya, we have a similar front load machine -- wouldn't trade it for a top loader. That sounds normal. Only thing you might want to check is that if you have "heavier" things in (that hold more water, like blankets and sweaters) to lower the spin speed a bit. That should keep the knocking down (slightly uneven loading on the machine's part).
ok kewl....how long you had yours? Well they r gonna give me a new one next week to try out ...might end up buying a top loader.......... Thanks for replying

It's perfectly normal. It's because the machine is out-of-balance, that's all it is. Different types of suspension springs make different noises.

That's not normal, its super. Two users they can be told anything.
If your car would move this way, what would you do?
Take a look at other washing mashines and you will see the difference.
