I bought this microwave to replace our old microwave which had gone rusty. It arrived with good packaging. Looks really well with ceramic interior which stops the rusting. It’s very easy to use product. Also easy to keep clean and the power saving turn off option is too handy. Only issue is can’t see inside while cooking, due to colour. It has standard size of plate. Has variety of function, sturdy and made with good quality. Doesn’t take long time to heat up food.
What I like:
It’s nice looking.
Cooks evenly.
Loud beep.
Powerful fan expelling moisture (so reduces buildup of condensation internally), but that means you certainly know when it is on.
It has 5s time steps (my previous Panasonic had 10s steps).
Easy to clean (ceramic interior finish).
I like the fact they the interior has a five year warranty – they must have faith that it won’t rust like most do.
Bright display.
Has power saving feature (but manual).
Not quite so good:
Power saving should be automatic – it should shut off power after a short time.
You pull the door to open rather than press a button, and it’s quite noisy closing.
I didn’t experience an issue with the door being stiff to open as some reporte.
The internal light is okay when the door is open, but I wish manufacturers would put a light on both side. With the door closed, it’s almost impossible to see inside unless you turn all the room lights off (and close the blinds!) – as many report. I fail to understand why it was not designed to make it possible to clearly see what’s cooking – useful if you want to ensure your coffee or porridge doesn’t boil over! The wire mesh needs to be their to reflect the 3cm microwaves back into the oven and let none out but other manufacturers have managed to do this and have good visible light transparency too.
The light comes out of the back of the unit (so more could have been done to channel all the light into the cavity!)
This ‘defect’ is mentioned in many reviews (not just Amazon), but I will live with it – the advantages outweigh this disadvantage.
I was going to include a picture showing the view inside with the door closed to show how difficult it was to see the contents but bizarley with a phone camera you can see quite clearly into the machine!!!
The fan could stay on a bit longer to reduce condensation buildup when you don’t remove the contents straight away (minor point).
Overall, a very good microwave and I have no regrets buying it. I certainly do recommend it.
Time will tell (of course) how long it will last, but generally Samsung products are well made.
Would have given a 5 star review, but have found buttons on touch pad to be unresponsive, have to press the power level button several time’s to get it to work.
Really like the enamel interior design, last Panasonic microwave unit had a painted protective interior, totally unfit for purpose, rusted in no time under the turntable, the main reason I chose this was to avoid that issue, so far no problem at all, all stem from cooking is expelled with a powerful fan, really pleased.
Full sized dinner plate fit’s for re heating, good sized cavity for cooking vessels, at 800W not the most powerful, but value for money certainly, just the niggley buttons, please sort this out manufacturer!
We got this in a black friday sale and so far it’s been brilliant. Feature-rich and it comes with a free steamer bowl which is handy!
Instructions contain some broken English and can be a bit strange to read but I didn’t really need to read them anyway as it’s all pretty straightforward to set up and use.
This microwave smashes all of the expectations you would have for a microwave. You put the food in, press the +30 second button a bunch of times, the food gets hot and then it beeps to let you know the time is up!
As mentioned in other reviews the door is a bit tricky to see through but that probably means it provides a higher protection against stray radiation and in reality this doesn’t cause any issues in day to day use.
Amazing microwave. Being needing to replace ours for a while and once I saw this on offer on Amazon, I quickly snapped this up.
The ceramic feature is great since this will allow easy cleaning.
Its not that loud when running and very stylish as well.
Very happy with this product and highly recommended
Fed up buying ceeap supermarket microwaves that go rusty within 12 months, I went for Samsung with ceramic inside, no sign of rust. It doesn’t seem as quick as my old microwave despite being more powerful, and it clunks when running. It’s okay but I was hoping for bette
One of the best Micro waves I have purchased, efficient and an all rounder .
Arrived earlier than indicated, handbook was readable….makes a change, and it does all I need. Well done!
Just what I needed ….it’s perfect and Samsung products I luv and at an excellent price … I’m so pleased with my purchase
Bought as replacement for 7 year old microwave. What a difference! Highly recommended and looks great.
Big volume and excellent Samsung quality.
Delivery was excellent.
Beautiful design.
Hubby gets confused now he’s older with digital or complicated features.
This is so easy to use for him and the family.
It cleans and shines up well on the outside with a micro clothe.
Easy to wipe down inside and underside.
No problems in settings, temperature, nothing.
So far so good.
This is the second Samsung I have had. The inside in particular is good and doesn’t rust.
Works as expected. Bit noisy for first 30s or so (vibration from right side). Would be 5 stars otherwise. Can’t see through glass but I knew this from other reviews.
A little more than i wanted to spend
But otherwise a good quality Microwave
Good easy microwave. Happy but has no inside light.
Not a biggie but never had one without before.
I thought it time to submit a review after 2+ years of use. This microwave has been superb. It has never let me down and is very easy to use and clean. The door itself is plastic, however it is well up to the task in-hand. The rest of it is metal, so it’s sturdy and weighty, as one would expect. I give this product 5 x stars. Good manufacturer too, I think you would agree?
My previous Samsung microwave was brilliant. I had it for years so I bought the latest model when I needed a new one
This microwave oven looks smart and works well. It is affordably priced and has more functions than I need, which made it initially seem slightly complicated to operate. However, in practice only two buttons and a rotary timing setting are needed.
The buttons could be more clearly labelled and a sticker showing the output rating (800 watts) is surprisingly absent on the unit.
The next-day delivery was great and the oven arrived in pristine condition.
Microwave is a great addition to the kitchen replaced a well used one which had rusted through. Works well, light is a bit dim but the important bit is the heating and it does it well. Bought a couple of covers to go over food to reduce the cleaning of splatter.
Overall, good. Cons: can’t see through the dark glass door – annoying. Also, not as powerful as my last 800 daewoo microwave. Pluses: nice appearance, fits large dinner plates and is good value for money.
Having previously purchased a smaller microwave (17 litre) that was not easy to clean this one has been a great investment. The larger volume makes it easier to get larger containers in for cooking without a noticeable worktop space infringement. Looks great and simple to use.
It may be an urban myth, but I so want to believe popty ping really is Welsh for microwave!
Anyway, our old Samsung microwave had popped its ping so a new one was needed. This replacement is the updated version and was bought on the strength that we had learned how to use the old one! You simply keep pressing the bottom right button for 30 seconds of microwaving (popty pinging??). There are a myriad of other functions but i doubt we will ever use them.
Although the volume is the same the shape of the door frame is slightly different so, for example, a jug we used to able to place inside does not fit in this one when upright!
The window is slightly darker so its difficult to see inside when cooking – but that’s not a deal breaker.
Overall simple to use, easy to clean and reasonable value.
