It appears we are going to have to replace our stove. It won't hold temperatures in the oven. We have had it "repaired" once already and the expensive fix lasted about eight months before it started failing again. The red light that indicates the top is hot has burned on steady for a year no matter if the burners are on or not. It, like my other Samsung appliances, is junk (don't get me started on the pos refrigerator).
We have only started looking at options on-line and I sauntered past the selection at Lowes yesterday when I stopped for furnace filters. I want the double oven version, but I balk at the price. In the end it will be what the wife wants even though I do 90% of the cooking. It is just the way it is.
In the end I know I will spend about a grand on an appliance that will last about a decade and that is a sad commentary on today's crappy manufacturing environment when "good enough" replaces quality components and workmanship.

Buy the extended warranty, that way it will die just after 5 years....Right after the warranty does
We're gonna need to do some looking at refrigerators.
Not yet but...
We bought it for the ‘fridge. They repaired it 6 times in five years. After all the warranty ran out on that model Damsung admitted it was a piece of junk. I’ll never buy another Samsung appliance
Jpe
Don't get a smart appliance. My toaster called me a dumbass.
How rude!

My only suggestion is to buy a 5 burner stove. Sold my chef's kitchen home (Only thing I miss in that house) is my extra burner. It's been 4 years and I still miss my griddle. Bought my double oven and fridge on line and the delivery people hook up everything. Whatever you do have some fun with it.
Appliances now come with a built in obsolescence guarantee.
