Didn't even last 4 years. I bought it in July 2021 and it stopped working last week. I didn't even use it that much. I mainly used it for heating the food. I never cook in microwave. I won't buy LG. Show details

Not Happy with the Performance – I bought this microwave about a year ago to replace my old LG microwave. It turned out to be a poor decision. Samsung micorwave doesn't deliver a good result. The heat is not evenly distributed. If I warm a cup of milk, the top part is steaming hot while the milk at the bottom is still cold. When I warm up a plate of rice, only the outer part is… Read more

steaming hot while the middle part is still as cold as it was taken out of the fridge. But it still does the decent job for some function, for example it can soften butter without melting it, or melting butter without boiling it. Overall, I am not satisfied with this product.

Competent but far from great – Good: - Heats extremely well. - Objectively looks quite good - Ceramic interior. - Easy to use, no-nonsense or gimmicks compared to other competing microwaves. - perfect size Bad/recommended improvements: - Was on demo when I first used it (I thought it was DOA item - not sure if this should be the default out of the box). - Body is noticeably… Read more

flimsy which causes some reverb sounds when closing the door and during operation. - Noticably noisier operation, not terrible but noticeably louder compared to our old LG and other brands I’ve used in my lifetime. - Keypad beeps are so loud (I’m aware they can be muted), would be nice to have a medium level of beep. Maybe a single press “night” mode to lower the keypad beep and finish beeps. - White ceramic interior would be great, that will help with the lighting issues and make it easier to spot the mess.

Beautiful – Bought this few months ago and was very reliable. Easy to operate and with the ceramic coating inside, this microwave provides easy cleaning. Looks and feels sturdy. Its color and design make it easy to fill in your kitchen. Show details

Not bad – Cannot complain, does everything a microwave is supposed to do and looks good to boot. Size is just right for our apartment. It's been 8 months and still working well. Just right for a couple. Show details

It does the job – It's a great size and looks great. But I thought spending that little bit more on a microwave would have a better sensor, heating up any leftovers results in the food not heated in the middle and burning hot on the outer side, it has a couple of things I like, easy cooking in 30 sec bursts which is more user friendly, better than my last… Read more

microwave, but definitely lacks in heating food up evenly, which my old microwave did a better job.... It's easy to clean and quiet and has a reminding beep after a minute. Not bad but not great.

Had to buy another Microwave because my Sharp died after 20 years – The door and the inside are so black and even though there is a light inside you can not see inside. It also is slower because it is 1000 watts rather than 1200 I am used to' The numbers are very hard to read as they are white on black -- and are very small It was the only one available at the time -- Just wanted to make a comment-- I have… Read more

Don't Buy it. You have been warned. Cannot see inside the Microwave – You cannot see inside the Microwave. The tinting is so dark you cannot see anything cooking. There is a light inside but it is not bright enough to be able to see anything through the door. Show details

No issues – I had this microwave for more than a year, although I am not such a heavy user so this needs to be taken into account. Very simple to use and it doesn't have any irritations that come to mind. Heats the food well (comparing this to my 10 year old LG which also does a good job). The beeping is somewhat loud but this can be turned off. Overall I would recommend this product. Show details ·  1

Don't buy! Lighting inside is non existent – So disappointed. We needed a microwave and went this as nothing much else available due to covid. You can't see anything in it while cooking. It's terrible! Everything else is great but looking into a dark microwave to see if things boiling over or exploding you can't see. I'd not recommend unless this is fixed up. The rest is fine in ease of use… Read more

and I like the blue display on the clock. Always believe the reviews as I regret not with feedback on the lighting. Would love my money back!

Great Microwave, Recommended! Long term reliability concerns! – My first Samsung microwave. I bought this about two and a half years ago from Bing Lee. It's been great for everyday use at home and fulfils the purpose. The size is really good with enough space to warm just about anything. The inside is really easy to clean as well. We use the basic functions of heating everyday so it serves the purpose.… Read more

Sometimes we do notice bit of uneven heating but not a big concern. The noise levels are just ok and can be improved in my view.

Unfortunately it stopped working about a week ago, although it powered up and rotated the tray but didn't heat up the food. I contacted Samsung support who were really helpful and assisted in the process while i took it to the service centre for initial assessment and then repairs. It took about 3 days in total to assess and fix. I was a bit annoyed at first as I expect these appliances to run for years however upon raising concerns with Samsung, they did back their product and ensured i had it up n running.

I'm giving it 3 stars solely because of the reason that it broke down thus adding to my reliability concerns else its a straight 5. I hope it runs perfect for another couple of years after the parts replacement. Otherwise, it is definitely a great addition to home for daily use and i would recommend it! Considering its use by my family, we don't really see any issues at all from functionality purpose! A suggestion for anyone experiencing problems, please do contact Samsung support first for any issue as trying to figure things out yourself just adds to frustration.

Simple and functional – We use our microwave largely for warming up, defrosting so have no need for anything fancy. This model does the job very well and given its price it was a great bargain for $179. The combination of a dark door glass and a rather weak interior light does not allow seeing the inside compartment well, which seems to be an issue for other users as well.  Show details

Confusing – I bought this microwave to replace my Kogan. The panel lights are very dull and you have to turn on the overhead kitchen lights to see it. Yu can't see the internal oven light when operating. The Price was good at Special $145.less $5.. There is no separate reheat button. The oven looks good. The warranty section was in a mess. Had lost all record of y recent Tv purchase. Would not purchase microwave again.  Show details

Microwave food really well – There’s a sensory function which can detect the temperature and humidity of the environment to adjust the temperature which makes food heat up really well It looks really cool in from the outside as well as the inside, heats food fast. Although there’s a lot of options on the microwave but you will get used to it.  Show details

Quality Samsung microwave - cooks fast! – We got this mostly based on looks and because its Samsung but it just so happens to be a really excellent microwave too! It cooks significantly faster than out crappy old Russel Hobbs one. Its only 100w more (1000w vs 900w) but it just does a much better job all around although in reality I mostly just use it to reheat cold coffee lol. Anyway, no complaints at all with this - we are very happy with it.  Show details

Solid stainless steel microwave – It is heavy without being cumbersome and easy enough to lift and clean the underside. The microwave is off more often than on as the clock uses more power than the cooking element. It is worth paying for if on special, all you need is a quick +30 button. Never used anything else other than that function. Cooks evenly and is quiet as a mouse  Show details

Good reliable microwave – No issues with this microwave. It doesn't go above and beyond but it certainly does what it's supposed to do. Some of the settings aren't entirely intuitive but it does have some smart functions which can help you out in a pinch if you're not sure for how long to microwave something for (eg frozen food). Other than that, as good as a microwave should be.  Show details

Awesome to use – Have cooked with this microwave cooks perfect also the defrost works to perfection, look is appealing to the eye, slight smaller than my other microwave but is large internally.

Looks good for your SS kitchen – I replaced my old Panasonic microwave with this Samsung one. The price was Ok and the performance is also good. The energy efficiency could be better as the electricity consumption is still high. Its aesthetic design is good and it matches your other kitchen stainless steel appliances. I recommend it generally.  Show details

Sturdy – I for one are very satisfied with the way it cooks and warms the settings are and features are so simple to read and understand, the noise from usage is quiet and it seems to be well built but not as sturdy as some of the other microwaves, the door is very lite and feels like it could break off if swung open to fast.  Show details

Cooks and reheats to the sounds of blessed silence (if you want it to) – Finally a microwave oven where you can turn off the sounds (beeps) if you want to. I only turn on the beeps when using the timer function. This feature alone gives it five stars. If only other devices had the same function. Apart from that it's a stylish looking microwave, better than average oven and cooks evenly, though it is a bit dark so… Read more

you can't see if things are boiling over. Previously I had an LG which beeped 5 times and repeated and would not stop until you took the food out. I then changed it for a small Panasonic which after 15 months started breaking. Try getting good customer service from Panasonic. I was not happy and with a chipped internal door I was unable to use it. This Samsung is solidly built and so far so good. For me the fact that there is no more incessant nanny beeping puts this microwave oven above all others. Manufacturers take note!

best bargain for mid-range microwave – Good for small family and for not-so-frequent use. 25L is good for reheat and for pop-corn... It has got eligant look of black color and steel with ceramic interior. Only drawaback is less power of 1000W which is not that great. Press-button Door opening is but noise and it it makes noise when heating.  Show details

Fantastic microwave – No complaints at all. Easy to use, looks sleek in our kitchen. Easy to clean and great size. We got a good deal from the Good guys, which came with a 2 year warranty.
