Not sure
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love it because it's a Samsung, but I have found the buttons hard to push to make it work. I have to mash the buttons several times before it will cut on. other than that it seems to work great.

Posted .We understand that the microwave is essential for heating and cooking, GladysB. Let's get those buttons working accurately!

Nice Plain Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like Samsung products. This microwave looks good and works well. It was not as expensive as some of the others but it truly does the job and has a few functions.
I would recommend this to a friend2 failures. Didn’t make a year
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointing. Worked for 10 months then it wouldn't power up. Called Samsung who sent a tech. I had to pull it off the wall so they could diagnose. Replaced a board and reinstalled it. Worked for a month and then it stopped heating anything. Called Samsung and they said they would cover parts, but not labor even though there was a month or warranty left. Pulled it off the wall and put it in the trash.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Samsung
Posted .We are glad to know that the parts are covered by the warranty, Spondie.
When a microwave isn't starting or heating, the most common reason is that it is in Demo mode. The microwave also won't heat if it does not have enough clearance or ventilation. If the microwave turns on but does not heat, checking a few settings and the installation will help resolve the issue.
You can try to troubleshoot your microwave by following the steps on the link below about the Samsung microwave, not heating or stopping working.

CHEAP
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When even the smallest amount of weight is placed on the turntable, the turntable has trouble rotating smoothly. It jumps enough to spill the liquid in a cup. The vents blow up onto the cabinet. There is no access to change the carbon filter, instructions refer to the vents blowing forward. This microwave does not have express cook.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendMicrowave Delivery.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a MESS! Constant changes with the delivery. Constantly being told they would contact me with a new delivery date and never heard from anyone until over 2 weeks later. No one wanted to take responsibility for it except for the original installer, Chad, who ended up eventually installing it correctly and caring about my horrible experience.
