Posted .Hi SuzE,
We recognize that you are unhappy with your microwave's stainless steel material. We wish to help as best as we can.
As you may already know, the stainless steel material on your microwave is not fingerprint-resistant; however, that does not mean that cleaning is to be difficult. To make things easier with cleaning, I have shared a Samsung link that will help with your experience.

Disappointed with the product and the delivery
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a replacement. The same truck that delivers the new appliance also picks up the old one, which can result in unwanted guests (pests) being brought in. I’ve lived in this house for three years, and after the delivery, pests started appearing from the microwave box. I strongly recommend picking up the replacement at the store instead.

A poor quality appliance for a big company
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The light of the microwave stopped working within a few weeks. The fan has only one setting compared to other microwaves that have settings for high and low. Things that are done in 1 minute in ALL other microwaves can't be done in this microwave.
