I am disappointed in this microwave. It has what I am sure is a design defect. When it gets hot from the range being on below it, the controls stop working correctly. I try to turn off the fan and instead the fan changes speed. Turning on/off the light also changes the fan speed. 90% of the time it works fine but when a pot of water has been simmering for a while underneath it, the control malfunction keeps happening.
I have bought two of these microwaves, both with the exact same defect. The first one went back to the store right away. When the exact same thing happened on the second unit I called Samsung, who arranged for a third party to come look at it. The third party told me I would have to unmount it from above the range for them to take a look. Well, if it's not mounted, the malfunction doesn't happen so that is pointless.
When the range underneath hasn't been on for a while, it is working fine. I have already gotten the bracket in place and holes cut in the cabinetry. It's not worth it to return again and get something else which won't mount the same way. So instead of being on the phone with Samsung for another 4 hours or trying to return to Best Buy, I am just leaving a crappy review. I hope it's not malfunctioning more than it currently is a year from now.
Yeah. It kinda sucks.
A microwave's performance depends on a functional control panel, BenP. The following potential solutions will help your unit operate at its peak efficiency.
If the microwave has power but will not respond to any commands or only certain buttons work, clean the control panel and try a power cycle. Please check this link for details.

In some households, the microwave is used more than any other kitchen appliance. It is best to have this cleaned once a week. Please check these links for details.

I just replaced our old Samsung over the range microwave that for some reason kept turning on by itself. This new one is very similar in style. It was easy to replace since the holes lined up the same.

Good product at a great price point. I've been using these as replacements in an apartment complex and the residents prefer these over the original Kenmore we had previously.

The best microwave ever. It functions well and easy to use. The only obstacle is that it doesn't work with "Smart Things" app or I couldn't find a way yet.

In general, Samsung makes good products. This microwave oven works exactly as advertised and fit perfectly in the space formerly occupied by an old Kitchenaid oven. And the price was excellent. Couldn't ask for more.

Samsung Microwave works well. I would give it a 5 star if the Kitchen Timer worked simultaneously with the cooking function and I prefer the quick settings ie # 1 button equals 1 minute, #2 button equals 2 minutes etc.
