Overall great value for money
Cooks the meals fantastic, the only problem is plate on the glass turntable is a bit slippery if you put a casserole dish on it,still dosent turn me off
I’ve found it be an invaluable device and even left out a conventional oven when designing my previous kitchen because I had stopped using one with this around. The kitchen in my newer house has an oven but I’ve never had to use it in the 4 years I’ve been here. Just be sure to read the dimensions and allow for sufficient clearance because this can affect the performance. My fan problem might be due to my not leaving enough clearance at the back in my new place.
Looking around for a replacement I haven’t found anything that offers the performance of this machine at anything like a comparable price and if the need arises I will just replace it with the same model if it’s still available.
The programs are good and I’ve used quite a few but not all of them. It can be used easily with just the basic functions but I like to keep the manual in a handy drawer for the different programs. I find the instructions quite adequate and I’ve not had anything go wrong yet. Unlike your “typical male” I like to read manuals for everything I buy and I suggest reading this one through to at least get a knowledge of what it can do and keep it handy for more detailed instructions when you want to try something new.
I recommend this machine based on my experience of using it.
I don’t know if it is relevant but for context I’m a 73 yr old man living on his own.
I like the microwave, only 3 stars on easy to use because the Manuel it comes with is non existent, I have to keep watching YouTube or try and figure it out , otherwise it’s really good
Am delighted with my new microwave. Its not overly big, so I’ve still got plenty of workspace and it doesn’t overload the kitchen. It’s easy to use, I’ve hardly had to refer to the manual, which incidentally it doesn’t come with – you have to download it! Rather annoying but never mind I’m sure this is progress/or not! It’s very easy to clean and comes with 2 stands of different heights, which are also easy to clean. I’ve cooked various dishes so far using the grill and the conventional oven. It preformed very well….I’m really pleased with it. It gets a 10/10 from me
he oven is quick to be heat up and easy for cleaning in the interior. Though it’s a bit noisy when it’s operating.
This combination microwave is very useful as my large oven is faulty so needed an oven in order to cook meat etc. It looks great in my kitchen. The downside is that there are very few instructions so I had to resort to trial and error. There was a lot of error!! Eventually I worked it out but a more detailed instruction booklet would have been helpful.
We were drawn to this model by the slim fry facility.
Having used it several times for chips the results are nowhere near as good as deep frying them.
The other facilities on the oven work very well.
This does what it says – microwaves, convection oven upto 180C and grills. Saves on energy bills. Great for heating smaller amounts. We use it for rice, casseroles, my husband’s lunches and currently grilling sausages. Well worth the effort of learning. May need to think about what containers if microwaving as well as grilling or oven and microwaving the item. Make sure you have space as biggerthan most microwaves. Also side heat vent (left when looking from front) puts out a large moist output which steamed up a large window the first time we used it. Needed more space and then never happened again.
The downside is the interface and has to be laboriously learnt and is not very intuitive. A key pad or turn dial would improve matters. Needs time and in our case our own quick reference guide. Well worth the effort as rarely use the main oven these days. That is what resulted in 4*.
Unfortunately had to return this microwave. The back portion sticks out too much and probably only suit if you stick the microwave on the corner. Otherwise a huge gap is left between the wall and the unit. Does not look pretty because of it.
my microwave has broken down and I don’t have any paper work to go with it. I only bought it in September 2021
Our previous (Daewoo) blew up so we went for this because of brand reputation. Hope it lasts longer than the 12 months our last one did! 20 litre capacity is plenty, though there are bigger ovens around. We use it as a conventional oven as much as a microwave and it bakes perfectly. User guide is pretty hopeless, but after some trial and error you get the hang of the controls. We like the touch controls which are easier to clean than knobs.

very good oven,. excellent with frozen chips using crusty plate on hot blast.
would recommend as i have not had use pre heating oven before use, but still cooks very well.
Wonderful piece of kit with the convection option. Still a way to go master all the features but – love it!
A few weeks further on, and have used it a little more. Disappointed to discover that the convection heat function only goes up to 200C – my old appliance went up to 220.
Still early days so I haven’t used all the features yet, but it’s very similar to my old Samsung microwave so no real surprises. As others have commented, the timer setting is a bit annoying – it would be better to be able to key in the time you require, but that’s just a small thing. Looking forward to many happy years ahead with it.

Really pleased with purchase, good price, haven’t used all programmes yet .

The power is not as good as my last combi but at half the price I cannot complain.. Everything working as stated. Would recommend.
Its taken a few weeks to get to know but I’m so glad I put in the effort, its a cracking oven and well worth the money!
Bit complicated to figure out, so I started with the basics, microwave to heat things up, then microwave-grill for pizza, then I tried baking brownies in the convection oven, I moved on to roasting a chicken using the combination microwave and oven and today I’ve just finished making bread in it, using it to both proof and bake the bread (aiming for subway style rolls, which haven’t turned out to bad for a first go!!)

Replacement for similar model at an excellent price. Efficient, good functionality and ease of use. As always seems to be the case, the instruction manual enclosed is basic, and the on-line one still not detailed enough to maximise the full functionality. I wish they’d give more examples of settings to use as there is a lot of functionality in the unit.
When I bought the microwave it was great. Unfortunately after a couple of months the corner started to get a stress fracture. I didn’t think too much of it as the microwave has a 3 year warranty. Over a year had passed and it got worse and worse, I then called Samsung and they said it only has a year warranty even though the box says 3 years. They wouldnt fix and gave me the impression I dropped it. Won’t be buying again!!
Simple to use. Efficient and heats to required temperature and easy to clean. Owned various combination microwave ovens in the past and this is by far the best.
I roasted a chicken larger than the auto cook timings so I had to work out how to add some time (auto for the biggest chicken size then hot blast micro and oven about 5 mins extra, then micro and grill about 5 mins for the extra browning). I’ve made yoghurt which is really good but does take 7 hours of very gentle tick-over electricity so I must compare that to a pot from the supermarket. Next time I do yoghurt I will put much more in than the 5 pots suggested, and there definitely is room for more.
Boiled potatoes in a few minutes – excellent. Non frozen pizza – a touch overcooked on auto but v close to the mark. Rice gets a tick.
Roasted half peppers filled with basil and tomatoes drizzled with olive oil did not hit the spot. I used the straightforward oven feature. Some things like a good time to develop maybe?. I will stick to the real oven for those.
ordinary microwave use is easy… and so on.
I am measuring the electricity consumption and will have to report back to you in a while with the full details. I’m using a clamp meter so not very scientific, but a smart meter is due end of November. At the moment though, just that magnificent 1.7kg roasted chicken in half a hour plus a few minutes final faffing makes it worth every penny.
The white is rather good by the way. I am glad it is all they had at the time of my purchase. This is not a plastic coated microwave, it is powder coated metal.
Pleased with this and I do recommend. Yes, this is a genuine review.
Edit March 2022. The bread proving function is amazing. Pop the covered bowl in the oven and leave it on auto for an hour. I use a no knead 500g flour recipe most often (James Morton’s Brilliant Bread, which I bought on Amazon), and that has three proves – two on auto for an hour in the bowl and one in the pan it will be cooked in for a further hour. The oven warms very slightly and the plate rotates. This is a revolution for my bread making and I’m no longer chasing spots of sun around the house with a bowl of dough.
On the down side – I struggle with the oven/baking function because the heating element is exposed on the roof of the oven. So, there’s direct red heat on and off during the cooking process and a combination of microwave and grill or the hot blast functions on things like macaroni cheese leave a cellophane browned texture on the top and not the normal browned bubbles I’d get from the big fan oven. I’d not use this for entertaining.
Warning – the heating element I just mentioned is touchable and I’ve burned myself once trying to turn toast over on the high rack. As such, I will not be buying one of these for my elderly parents and I’d not want children to use it.
It is still great and I’m happy with this item – please could we have a recipe book for it.

My only criticism is the manual, more of a start up guide, it isn’t informative enough. I know I can go and download a manual but I’m a bit of a dinosaur and like products to come with a printed manual, just a personal preference. Having said that it is very easy to operate and understand, it isn’t overly complicated. It’s very neat on the counter top and I like the fact you can see your food as it cooks, not all microwaves allow you to see your food, it’s useful if you can see something that is potentially over-cooking especially in microwave mode. I would definitely recommend this item for a small household.
I have had this Samsung Convection microwave for a few weeks easy to use and I have made baked oats, macroni and cheese so energy efficient would highly recommend this microwave as previously owned the 23 litre one. It’s great value for money and most of my family own Samsung microwaves.
Good for the money , but the instructions could be better really powerful on microwave setting not used convection or grill yet,nice size bit fussy on controls but getting use to them now.
