Overview
A true convection system lets this Samsung over the range microwave bake and brown as well as reheat, with Slim Fry and brown or grill programs on the touch panel. It mounts above the cooktop, and the stainless front resists fingerprints.
Convection turns the space above the stove into a second small oven for roasting vegetables or browning a casserole top. Touch controls with preset programs cover defrost, Slim Fry and grilling. Vent airflow and mounting parts are not described, so check the install guide before planning a swap.
Who it's for
Remodels and replacements over a standard range, where a cook wants convection browning on top of reheating, are the use case. Renters needing a plug-in countertop unit, or kitchens without an upper cabinet over the stove, need a different design.
Pros and cons
- True convection for baking and browning
- Slim Fry and brown grill programs
- Auto defrost program
- Fingerprint resistant stainless finish
- Listed wattage is low for fast reheating
- Installation needs an upper cabinet and wall
- Vent fan airflow not listed
Performance notes
Microwave reheating speed follows the magnetron power output, while convection results depend on hot air moving evenly around the cavity. Turntable rotation evens out hot spots for dishes that fit its circle. Preheating for convection programs and using cookware the manual approves govern browning results.
