Bestbuy has great options. Also they have an in-home consult free. The tech guy (from their Geek Squad) would come over and discuss models that would fit your needs and recommend. We went with a Samsung model with inbuilt conective air fryer and we love it.

For what it's worth, I'm a retired appliance repairman. I also own a Samsung gas range, refrigerator, and microwave. The microwave is gone, the cost to repair was more than the cost to replace. The range was repaired by me 3x. The refrigerator needed a hinge replacement and 3 ice makers. I will never buy a Samsung appliance due to their quality problems. If you go online you will see that I'm not the only one who has these problems. Luckily I was able to fix at parts only cost. Do the research.

Samsung kitchen appliances are junk! I have fridge with frozen ice maker, $350 to replace with no guarantee. The dish washer leaks and you must replace the inside of the door ($400) to repair a seal that probably costs $4.00. The range has a burner that has a mind of its own and sometimes doesn't ever shut off to control temp.

Does your fridge have a screen and camera so you can see inside without open the door?

No, but it does have a light inside and a window in the door so I can see what is inside, Don't need no camera or monitor to do that. Some people just love to have their toys and complicate everything.

Well I asked GPappy because he said he has a Samsung fridge. I think the camera and monitor is the selling point for the Samsung fridge.

Not a stove, but my Samsung fridge has been a disappointment. It's quite nice overall, but constantly leaks water into the produce bins, and the paint came off the aluminum door handles.

I do; we have one. It heats very slowly. Other than that it works ok.

The problem is service. We also have a Samsung Fridge that the ice maker won't work, and we had two Samsung d'washers that broke. No repairman will touch a Samsung product unless he is Samsung trained. Guess how many Samsung repairmen there are in Indiana--zip, nada, zero. You are just stuck.

For those reasons, I would never, ever buy another Samsung product again. Be warned.

Thanks, guys. This confirms some other info I found googling around. Despite Samsung's tricky single/double oven, I managed to steer my wife toward a different brand.

Good move! You won't regret it.
