I must say i was nervous making the switch to induction cooktop. I got this model afer having coil electric elements. Which i hated. These are smooth top, simple to clean. Touch cotrols arent thr best. Yoy can stand close to it and itll set of with a slight lean(not skin touch just any touch force) oven works great. Heats up wuick. I wish it has fit more flush in my home. Otherwise its a great upgrade for induction alone.

Very nice but you need heavy pans to boil fast

Sale price on this is a great deal. I bought one open box with service contract and good idea because the cooking elements float under the glass and had shifted causing the numerals to misalign. The got it fixed after a month waiting for parts which turned out to be unnecessary - taking a star off for bad design that allows that to misalign. I also got a free Samsung range hood which unfortunately took many months to come into stock (deal expired)
What I love is fast boiling, stovetop is cool except the burner that's on, fewer worries about leaving a burner on. What I don't love is that grease & dirt show more so I have to clean more often and the SmartThings app won't do anything without being there to push the Smart button on the range so I can't preheat the oven from the store. Even if a pan is magnetic it may not work efficiently unless it's highly ferrous - aka heavy. Huge difference in boil times. There's a secret menu to test pans. Press & hold Timer and lightbulb together for 3 seconds. Bottom of digits will light up. Put on pan and turn on burner. 00 means not compatible, 01 is inefficient, 02 is most efficient. Credit to Samsung for offering a free 10 piece circulon induction set which works great. There are more buzzing sounds but they're very quiet and not a big deal compared to the exhaust hood.
I was really excited about fast water boiling. It is fast, but honestly I don't notice much of a difference in real cooking because that's only a small part of the process. Temp control is better and I prefer to deep fry on it because of that control. The top looks great but shows dirt much worse than my white porcelain gas stove so I have to clean it more frequently. The cool top effectively adds counter space because it's cool all around the burner. Don't actually touch the surface after cooking because you're still going to burn yourself despite those videos showing people placing their hand down for a fraction of a second.
Oven works great and after adjusting the temp it's spot on. There's another secret menu to adjust temp - hold settings for 3 seconds, press up/down to select 1, press start/set, press up/down to select temp adjustment, start/set to save. I miss convection on my high end range.
The high tech SmartThings and Bluetooth are a disappointment. I thought it would talk to the BT exhaust hood but only the higher end ranges do that. SmartThings remote control is a great idea but you can only see what burners are on or if the door was opened. You need to be there in person to turn on the Smart Control before you can remotely turn on the oven.

Love this range. The induction cooktop brings water to a boil in 2 minutes or less! Better than gas in every way.

I love the cooktop due to it rapidly heating pans and pots faster than gas or standard electric stoves. Also, when you shutoff a burner, it’s similar to shutting off a gas burner; boiling stops almost immediately. The oven is good, however, because it’s no better or worse than other ovens I’ve had. This is why I gave it 4 stars.

I enjoy the ease of using this unit, from the faster response time to get a pan hot to the ease of cleanup on the flat top surface. The oven functions well for an electric but i have yet to try out the bread proof, Broil or self clean functions.

Very happy with the switch from gas to induction. This range has most of what I need. I wish the simmer capability was better because #1 is too low and #2 is too high. I wish it had half settings.

Fast burner heat and fast baking. Most of our older pans work with range because they have some iron content in them. Good value. Easy cleaning.

Not even a year old and the main board is fried.
So the whole range is a house fire risk.
I don’t trust Samsung after this

Good stove. Some minor issues. The oven controls on the front are annoying sometimes. Being a larger person when cooking I run against them and turn something on frequently. Very easy to clean though. If you need to boil water fast this is a very fast stove. I love that my son can’t accidentally turn it on if he starts playing with it when there are no pans on the stove top. The surface is very smooth and the pots and pans like to slide on it easily which is annoying when cooking sometimes. The smart oven is nice. I love being able to turn the oven on ahead of time to preheat without having to get up. This was easy to install. Easy to level. So far it’s easy to clean. Samsung did a good job on this range. Induction is an amazing technology. Just make sure your pots and pans will work.

I have been using it for about a month now. The lines are neat. The heat on the stove turns on very fast, I love induction. The oven is not convection like my old range but cools down with a vent, and the temperature is working right. The control panel is in the front, I am glad my kids are grown so it cause no danger as little ones like to touch everything! The look is amazin.
