Heating stopped
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stopped heating only after 3.5yrs. Other than that it was great. So just beware this may not last long and only has a 1yr warranty, probably for a reason.

Look for another option
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hate this microwave. I have had it for 5 months now. I wish I could get my old one back. I can’t use the timer and any of the cooking options at the same time. When using the fan and want to use the microwave’s cooking features, the fan power cuts down. When we ordered it and had it installed it arrived with dents across the top of the door. Best Buy replaced it, and the replacement one was also dented but not as bad. Again, a replacement was offered but we were afraid that the next one would be worse. Plus the time off of work to be home for another home install wasn’t an option. At that point Best Buy offered a slight refund in the form of a Best Buy gift card and credit on my credit card would have been better but whatever. This microwave must have been designed by someone who doesn’t cook. I do not recommend it, if you are a multitasker.

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After two years of using it, the ventilation fan works on its own whenever the weather is hot outside (I am in Arizona). I tried to search the issue and cleaned it very well from outside and also from inside for any residual grace but the problem still on going!

Disappointed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks great but it trips the breaker frequrently. Its on a deficated breaker so that shouldn’t happen. Best buy replaced it and it still trips the breaker. I even had an electrician come in and check out my electrical. He gave it his seal of approval. Have a new GE coming next week. Samsung makes great TVs and phones. They should stick with what they’re good at.

Microwave
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Junk! My husband and I did all the work of installing the new microwave, tried to heat a pot pie the following day. Once done, the microwave was extremely hot, and the pot pie still frozen! I wish I had listened to a friend that said "Don't buy a Samsung." However, Best Buy did a return with no hassle! Kudos to them! Not so much for Samsung!

Buy another brand
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the Samsung ME19R7041FS for a year and a half and it stopped heating up. I had a tech come out and he said it needs a new mother board and magnatron. It will cost $400. I only paid $265 for the microwave brand new. This only has a 1 yr MFG warranty. I would not recommend any Samsung products ever.

Disappointed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced my Electrolux after 13 years, with Samsung. Not happy with the touch pad. You have to press a few times a with a lot of pressure. Missing a lot of features for shortcuts Would not recommend. I thought I just had to break it in for the touch pad to work better but it didn’t and now I have to keep since past the return policy.
