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

I’ve only had it 2 days and already made 2 dinners in it. I grilled chicken thighs and the skin was absolutely perfectly crispy. I’ve never been able to achieve that in any other kind of oven or grill. Next day when I reheated leftovers, it was just like it was fresh, the meat was juicy, not dry and rubbery like in other microwaves. Love the door opening down. There’s a bit of learning curve to use the controls, not totally intuitive. I’m bit nervous reading reviews about it stopping working pretty soon, so I hope those are just unfortunate exceptions.

I cannot praise this oven enough. I prepare everything using it: the convection oven is great, and with the perfect size to save energy and time. Microwave is great as well. Also, it fit perfectly in my new kitchen! I am very happy with it and recommend it.

A few surprises with this microwave. One thing is, there isn’t a numbered keyboard, like most microwaves. This machine has many functions, but not enough directions on using those functions. I bought this because of the sz. I was outfitting a custom cabinet and needed a microwave that looked like it was built into the cabinet. I also do not have a traditional oven in this space. So I wanted the convection feature. But no real directions, I’m unsure if it’ll get used as an oven. It also has grill/fryer capabilities. Again, no directions. I prefer a traditional microwave.

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.

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.

Love this item. We continue to use it everyday even after our kitchen remodeling was completed. Our family relied on this product for 2 months. We microwaved, roasted, baked and broiled/toasted. This is an inexpensive product so I imagine higher end products are better, but this was a godsend to us and continues to serve.

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!!!
