Samsung - 1.2 cu. ft. Countertop Convection Microwave with PowerGrill - Black

What a wonderful difference from a traditional old-school microwave! Bigger, more efficient, and gives us the flexibility of convection cooking without using our bigger oven. Easy to understand and use controls, and opens like a traditional oven door, so perfect on our countertop. A bit more expensive, but so far worth every penny.

I wanted to put a microwave in our island but the sliding door microwaves are extremely pricey. This one is perfect. Installation was easy, we just cut out a piece on the end of our island and installed it. It looks so sleek, and is easy to operate. Can't say enough about it. It works very, very well. I'm happy with this purchase.

This was the perfect candidate to complete our kitchen remodel due to being a convention oven and the possibility to install it as a built-in microwave. I was considering a double oven, but this unit has provided me with a second convention oven with the added bonus of higher efficiency because it has a smaller space needing heating. If you find the Samsung trim kit pricey, look up Microtrim. Microwave function is great! It heats evenly and quickly. It's awesome that I can adjust heating time mid-cycle. Warming drawer function is fantastic too. I just started reading the more complex functions and am excited to try the combination functions that use the microwave to intensify the mode of cooking (oven, grill, etc.). Other wins are that it's aesthetically pleasing--no handles to match with other appliances, easy to clean, and priced much more competively than other built-in convection microwaves out there. Best Buy made in-store pick up a breeze and the associate even offered to help transport it into my car. Though be warned--I initially purchased this as an online open box item and BB shipped it with no box; just wrapped in bubble wrap and tape. The item came damaged and returning it was a hassle. Other than that it was a good experience all around.

I've had my Samsung convection microwave for like 4 weeks now. I love it!!! Having the extra oven to bake pies and rolls during the holidays is great!! The oven feature bakes everything so evenly because its turning the whole time. Not confusing to use, you have simple choices to choose from as far as the microwave and cooking options. Great buy!!!

We are very disappointed that after spending a significant amount of time and money looking for a microwave that we would get one that so clearly damaged at the factory. Please see the attached two pictures. The first is the "stock" picture of the Samsung - 1.2 cu. ft. Countertop Convection Microwave Model: MC12J8035CT that we purchased. The second picture is of the microwave that we received from Best Buy. I picked it up from the store in Brookfield, WI. Got home, unpacked it and you can see in the picture the dent and the lack of the ceramic enamel that should be there. The door does not close properly due to the dent. You have to close the door with some force in-order for the door to close completely and the interior light to turn off. We will be exchanging this for another one at Best Buy later today, however until we get one in working order my rating for this is only 1 star, willing to change our rating once we get a working non-damaged one.

I bought this online for store pickup, naively assuming that every microwave oven has a numeric keypad to enter the cooking time. I looked at the features but didn't pay attention to the control panel. It turns out that the ONLY way to enter the cooking time is by use of the "+30 seconds" button and the up/down arrows (which move the time up or down by 10 seconds or more, depending). That means that if you want to microwave something for 6 minutes and 30 seconds, you have to press the "+30" button THIRTEEN TIMES. Heaven forbid you should want to cook something with convection for 45 minutes! It boggles my mind that a product with such a non-functional user interface ever even made it to market. Seriously, this oven should be a case study in business school of how product design can go horribly wrong. BOTTOM LINE: wait until Samsung fixes this product by adding a numeric keypad.

What I like most about this Air Fryer is that it has multi-functions: Microwave, Air Fryer, Griller. Any Air Fryer I have seen is "just an Air Fryer". This product took it up to the next level. It's large size also lets me cook more and bigger things. Instead of heating up the whole house in summer using an oven, I can get most things cooked with this unit. Worth a serious look at for your needs

Love all the preprogrammed options. My favorite is the Slim Fry option, kids use it all the time!
