Samsung - 30 in. Wide 5 Burner 6.0 cu. ft. Freestanding Gas Range with 18K BTU Dual Power Burner & Self Clean - Stainless Steel

Yes, ultimately I’d recommend it but read through my complaints first! I’m really not sure how this range has so many good reviews. Yes, the oven and range features work fine. The oven cooks evenly. The range feels sturdy and the multiple options for heat output (power burner, etc) is nice. Although I think I would have preferred 3 to be normal and to have the one power burner (which really does boil water fast!) instead there are two regular ones, one really small one and the power burner. I have two complaints that frankly make me want to give this range 2 or 3 stars instead of the 4 I decided on: The app/smart control- this really doesn’t do anything. I get WHY you can’t turn the oven on remotely but I don’t understand why I can’t adjust the sound settings. This is unacceptable. When preheated the thing sings to you for close to a minute—loudly. Then when your timer goes off it sings loudly until you make it stop. I have 3 kids so sometimes I just need a gentle reminder that my food is done and then silence while I calm someone or finish using the restroom. In my opinion, one short round of singing for preheating and a longer one for timer being done would be sufficient. The sound option in the app gives you the option of “on or off” off being the stove literally makes no sounds at all *face palm* in my opinion the app doesn’t really do anything helpful. The other complaint I have is the griddle. It’s NOT non stick. I don’t know what the reviewers saying it is are smoking but even cheese that came out of a quesadilla stuck to this thing. It also heats unevenly. The middle cooks pancakes okay but the front and back doesn’t get hot enough due to the placement of the burner. The crevices around the side are impossible to clean and the whole thing is always hella dirty. Honestly, I hate the griddle. Wish I could replace it with something. I know I gave this thing 4 stars but honestly I wish I’d bought something else. The only reason I didn’t give it 3 stars is because it does it’s primary job— of cooking my food— well and it looks nice. Best Buy is also the absolute best for ordering appliances! Final photo of the griddle is what it looks like after a couple weeks of cooking— without actually using the griddle. So I guess just know even if you don’t use the griddle you’ll still have to clean it once a week or so depending on how often you cook and how messy you are. The manual is also unclear as to whether it needs to be seasoned as a normal cast iron pan or not so maybe that would help? It has rubber feet though so I’m hesitant to try.

I’m extremely happy with this stove. It looks sleek and modern in my kitchen, and the build quality feels solid and durable. The burners heat up quickly and provide consistent, even cooking, whether I’m simmering or cooking at high heat. The oven works perfectly as well—it preheats fast and cooks food evenly, which has made baking much easier. The controls are intuitive and easy to use, and cleaning is simple thanks to the smooth surfaces. Overall, this has been a fantastic purchase. It combines performance, style, and reliability at a great price. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable and efficient stove.

I do recommend this so far!!! I’ve used the burners and the oven but not the broiler function yet located inside the oven. The 18 btu located in the front right burner is wonderful for boiling or frying, sautéing! The one behind it is used for simmering and works great as well. Griddle works fine except I prefer a frying pan to make pancakes for easier cleaning. Oven works great; functions on the higher temp side and so it bakes quicker, so keep an eye on it to prevent over baking or burning. Storage section located at the bottom of the oven is just enough for couple of cookie sheets. Easy to clean stovetop and grates. Stove is still looking brand new! Love it!
