Our take on the Samsung 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over the Range Microwave

This is a 30-inch over-the-range microwave with a 1.7 cu. ft. cavity, 1000 watts of cooking power, and a convertible venting system that can exhaust outside or recirculate. It adds auto defrost, auto reheat, a kitchen timer, and a child lock, and the black stainless finish is fingerprint resistant. The capacity and power are typical for the class, but the side-mounted membrane controls and the venting performance are the points owners argue about most. It suits kitchens replacing an existing 30-inch over-the-range unit where the cutout and ducting already match.
