I would never buy any Samsung appliances again. We redid the kitchen in Samsung as part of the reno, they had great reviews at the time, 5 years ago. We had troubles with the refrig from day one and it took forever to get them here, then the part took forever, when it was installed, it went bad very quickly. On and on this went for years only expanding to trouble with the microwave and stove. After 3 years of fighting with them, we gave up, sold what we had & replaced everything with products from a different mfg.
