Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Poor quality Glass

Rmakiel 1/31/2022

poor quality glass - glass is broken before installation can be done or removed from the box. i followed the instructions on the box not to remove the packing around the door until ready for installation. now i am stuck with a $500 piece of junk. the overall experience has been a nightmare

Coating coming off

klscandon 1/27/2022

i love the look of this microwave and was willing to buy more to get it. i've had it now for just under 4 years and where you open the door the black paint is starting to wear. i can see the metal shining through on the edges. really sucks!! i've never had that happen on even the cheapest of microwaves. it has also began to beep as if there is food left inside when there isn't and after i have cleared it.

This is one of the 4 new matching Samsung appliances we ordered. We are waiting for the other 3 and the kitchen renovation to be completed. Did remove from box to make sure not damaged in shipping/delivery and all appears OK. Disappointed cannot be hardwired and must install plug inside of cabinet which will take up valuable space. Cannot review yet on performance.

i bought this $500 microwave 9 months ago. from beginning exterior filter pops out by self into cooking pot or on the oven. to resolve this problem is a nightmare. contacted samsung several times, waited long time for parts and received wrong one. still waiting, not knowing if it will resolve the problem. i have blue tape on both sides of the filter frame to prevent filter being cook with soup.

rkirgxp58 1/9/2022

We've had this microwave for 9 months and it still looks like new! The black stainless steel holds up great, even with our 18 mo old grandson. The single button features are very convenient and it cooks everything perfectly.

Nice and big!

bigtiny 1/3/2022

I bought this a year ago when Samsung had a promotion going on. Got this OTR microwave with a stove with an air fryer. Really like the microwave and it's functions. The only thing I don't like is the door. The microwave is huge and so with it being huge the door is long. So it opens from right to left so you always need to lean back or back up when opening. Other than that we are very happy and recommend.

Looks cool, but not perfect

Diamond Dave 1/3/2022

I don't want to hammer this microwave for being horrible. It's not, but there are a couple of things my old microwave did that it doesn't. For example. A lot of microwaves allow you to long press the 1 or 2 button and quickly cook something for 1 or two minutes with a simple press of ONE button. The microwave does not have that for some reason. you go from that to 4 button presses: time cook, 1, 0 0 start. It does have add :30 seconds, which you can press multiple times, (but doen't do it too fast or it won't register them) 3 presses would get to 1:30 but that's not really a time saver, is it? Additionally, it has a "sensor cook" It has several settings, and none of them make much sense. It's unclear what it's doing or how it works. When you first use this mode, there is no time shown, only when it gets close to the end, does it start counting down. I don't like this at all. This is because you don't know how long it's going to be cooking in there. Everything I've tried so far, as been WAY overcooked. Boiling over, melting things, etc. I wish there was a way to adjust it so it would be less aggressive when using this mode.

RSWSLH 11/13/2021

Great microwave, interior is easy to clean. Buttons can be a little picky and do not always recognize you are touching them. I have used two cooking options and we have had it for almost 6 months. Installed and hung by myself after our kitchen remodel without any problems and I'm a 5'10" 165lb female who doesn't work out. So it's not difficult to really get it hung if you know what your doing. All in all really satisfied with our purchase!

SmartThingsFan 11/12/2021

I wish it had quick buttons to do a minute, two minutes, 30 seconds so I dont have to press as many buttons. Also this device is not a matter device and would like it to be connected to SmartThings. Lastly the door is big i have to bend my head out sometimes when opening it due to there no handle on the front.
