Samsung - 6.3 cu. ft. Smart Freestanding Electric Range with Flex Duo, No-Preheat Air Fry & Griddle - Black Stainless Steel

We’ve had this double range for 3 weeks now. Our first purchase of this range let to a return/exchange after installation we found that the range was unable to select between top oven and bottom do to a failed limit switch which is inside the oven for the divider. Without that limit working the oven can not distinguish sections of the oven. So onto the replacement and operation. After the replacement we were able to put the range to the test and it is definitely a solid performer for baking, convection, air fry and stove top cooking. It has baked evenly and the burners heat very well and are very good at cycling to maintain a low heat to high heat. Definitely a huge improvement from our previous Samsung Range that was replaced. Cleaning inside is not bad we had to wipe the oven out once do to an air fry session we forgot to place a catch pan under the screen and had a small mess of oil that cooked out. A little vinegar and baking soda and it wiped out well. Prior to use remember to place the range on 400 degrees for a 1/2 hr is the suggestion we did ours at 400 for 1/2 hr then 450 for another 1/2 hour and it seasoned the inside well. NOTE Make sure you can ventilate when you do this it will absolutely smell and smoke your home up. We put a fan exhausting out our kitchen window and placed a comforter to block the kitchen doorway into our living room and it kept the smell down. But you definitely need to condition the oven before use or you will have a nasty taste to any food that you cook in the oven prior to use. Once it’s done it is great. Final thoughts on the range. It baked holiday food great, cookies were evenly baked and pies. Our roast was done nicely as well as the ham and turkey. For the glass top operation does the job well and as said before the temperature control of the burners has definitely improved from our last Samsung. The Smart things app works great and love the control and notifications to the phones when cooking. WiFi set up was easy peezy as well. Best Buy comments they absolutely stood by their replacement of the product after we even contacted Samsung to virtual trouble shoot to just make sure we weren’t missing something prior to the exchange, which we knew we weren’t but just to make sure it wasn’t a easy fix. However when your range doesn’t work right out of the box I don’t believe you should need a service call within the first day of owning a new appliance. Extra topics: the soft close on the oven doors work great, treat your glass top with conditioner and protection prior to use as well. The stuff works, our older stove top looked like new and we actually were able to sell our replaced stove because of the condition it was in. The controls take a few minutes to explore but once you go through them it’s no problem to operate the features. If you’re looking to protect the glass top they make some great products that will protect your top when the stove is not in use as well. This Samsung Range is recommended from a family that likes to cook. Hope you found some of the information useful in our review and happy cooking!

Super pleased with the purchase of this smart things Samsung range. It’s great to have three different zones on the fast boil burner, that way you always have the right amount of heat for the right size pot. The warming center is also a handy feature to keep things warm for those that come late to dinner. This range also comes with its own griddle, which is not as heavy as your standard cast-iron griddle. I really like that. What sold me on this oven was the double oven feature and the cool way that you can either open just part of the door or all of the door. I mostly use the upper oven and impressed by how fast it heats up. It has self cleaning and steam cleaning options. I love the fact that I can just pull out the divider to quick clean it if something should boil over much easier than crawling on my knees to get the job done. Also, handy are the air fry, dehydrate and bread, proofing features. I was totally surprised that with this size range I was still able to get a storage drawer at the bottom, didn’t have that in my last double range really appreciate it now. Overall, it’s definitely something I would choose again.

I was in the market for a unit that has 2 ovens when I saw this unit at my local Best Buy. I read the reviews regarding the ease of scratches on the glass. I thought after all these reviews, they must have improved it. WRONG, first time I used it, I have scratches and it is barely 5 weeks in my home. I am debating whether to keep it or exchange it. Aside from the scratches, it is a really nice oven, it heats quick and bakes evenly and the air fryer is a nice feature. If the scratches do not bother you, it is a really good freestanding range.
