[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My old microwave was an eyesore, and the handle threatened to break with every use. The Samsung ME21DG6500MTAA has been a breath of fresh air. The sleek matte black steel finish and hidden handle are a massive upgrade in looks and functionality (no more broken handles!). But the beauty goes beyond skin deep. SmartThings integration is a game-changer for our family. Phone notifications for finished food mean no more wondering if my popcorn is on fire! Plus, when paired with a Samsung range, the vent and light will automatically turn on -- how convenient is that!? The large capacity easily handles large dishes, and the sensor cooking worked well for reheating leftovers. However, the buttons aren't illuminated at night, making late-night reheating a fumble in the dark. Ideally, Samsung would allow light control through voice assistants (I couldn't seem to get it working through Google Home or Alexa). Overall, this microwave is stylish, functional, and packed with smart features. While the lack of illuminated buttons is a bummer, the convenience of SmartThings and the spacious interior make it a strong product, that I am very happy with!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The microwave is very nice and huge in the inside. The door is also huge and sleek. I am still learning all the settings as it can be connected to your phone and also our Samsung fridge. It has a Smart Things app that I have not downloaded because my Husband did and wasn’t too happy with it. It gives you a notification when your food is ready and you turn the vent light off and on. I really don’t think this is needed at all. This is a very nice microwave and it looks cool but it’s kinda hard to see in as the window is dark. Overall, this is a great microwave, I just won’t use any of the features on the app.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Are you looking to upgrade your microwave? The Samsung Bespoke Over-The-Range Microwave with WiFi is hard to beat! Overall Impressions and Pros This model is stunning - the matte black steel and glass display will make this microwave really stand out (in a good way) in any kitchen. From an appliance standpoint, the microwave does everything a microwave normally does such as heat food up at an impressive 1,000 watts, defrosting, and sensor cooking, which allows the microwave to heat up your food to the optimal temperature based on its smart sensors. This model offers a spacious 2.1 cu. ft of capacity so you can load it up with your biggest dishes. In addition to the standard features, this microwave has WiFi! You may be wondering why you need WiFi on a microwave. This microwave connects to the Samsung SmartThings app and allows you to do things like create custom food cooking programs and sync with your Samsung stove/range to turn the ventilation fan on and off when you use your stove - pretty cool! My favorite thing about having WiFi is the clock sets itself - no more staring at a blinking “12:00” and having to figure out how to set the time. SmartThings App and Features Linking this microwave to the Samsung SmartThings app unlocks additional features. In addition to doing basic things like setting the time and sending cook settings, you can view how much energy your microwave is using with the SmartThings Energy feature. The SmartThings app also provides you with a virtual cookbook, filled with easy-to-follow recipes that are tailored to your appliance. I love that I can find a recipe, follow it step by step, and “send” any cooking details directly to my microwave - it can’t get any easier! These features are even cooler when you have other SmartThings appliances such as a smart Samsung fridge or Samsung range/stove since they can all work together. Cons The only con that comes to mind is the “fingerprint-resistant” finish isn’t entirely resistant to fingerprints, but cleaning the exterior is a breeze with a soft cloth and some water to keep the matte black and glass front looking sharp. Conclusion If you're looking for a microwave that’s loaded with smart and practical features, this is the one to get!

Its matte black steel finish brings a touch of modern elegance to any kitchen, elevating its aesthetic appeal. The sleek design is a game-changer. Functionality-wise, it's a powerhouse.

No more hovering anxiously while your food cooks – your phone will alert you when it's ready, allowing you to multitask without worry. the Bespoke Over-the-Range model, is equally impressive. Its exterior and auto-dimming glass touch controls add a touch of sophistication to any kitchen. Plus, navigating through settings is a breeze, thanks to its user-friendly design. Overall, whether you're drawn to the matte black steel of the ME21DG6500MTAA or the sleek white design of the Bespoke Over-the-Range model, Samsung has delivered appliances that marry style, functionality, and convenience seamlessly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new Samsung over the range Bespoke Edge to Edge glass display microwave in matte black is a sleek and sophisticated upgrade to my kitchen. It looks great with my dark cabinets and the edge to edge glass is a high end look. I do wish finger prints didn’t show on the glass but it is easy to clean. The microwave has a ton of features and is smart app compatible. It is very easy to use and works well. You do have to really select the buttons on the display. My start button seems to be a little finicky but it does work once pressed on center and firmly. It heats well and evenly. I am very happy with the functionality it provides and how nice it looks in my kitchen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Microwave is great and i have yet to use all the features but it heats food evenly and seems to work better then any i have used before. the App also has a bunch features including monitoring electrical usage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very professional and clean microwave. Has a very nice bright white LED light on the bottom to light up your stove top on a cloud day. The inside is the classic blue color that matches the new Samsung wall ovens, which is a major change from the standard white interior most of us are used to from a microwave. The all glass front makes your kitchen look more custom and get lots of questions from your friends and family. The built-in Wi-Fi allows for clock synchronization so no more having to reset the clock when the power glitches. Just an overall solid microwave. So far, the food has been cooking great, not over cooked, not under cooked. Inside the door, there is a nice cheat sheet that explains how long to cook certain types of foods for the perfect temperature and taste. And the Samsung Mobile App, well, it messages you when the food has been cooked completely which is a great feature when you're busy and running around the house. Well done Samsung.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve had this Samsung microwave for about four months now. Initially, we noticed some heating inconsistencies—items weren’t warming up in the usual amount of time. Fortunately, that issue seemed to resolve on its own after a while. More recently, we’ve run into a new problem: the digital display has started acting up. It flashes randomly, starts and stops on its own, and seems to have a mind of its own. I’ve uploaded a video to show what’s happening. Overall, we’re somewhat satisfied with the microwave’s performance when it works properly, but it’s disappointing to be facing issues like this so soon. I’d really prefer not to go through the hassle of a replacement or repair this early on, but it’s likely going to be necessary. Cheers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new Samsung microwave (ME21DG6500MTAA) is a breath of fresh air in my hectic kitchen. First off, it looks sharp. The matte black steel finish is a major upgrade from my old, ancient microwave. Plus, there's no bulky handle to break off when I'm reheating mac and cheese for the third time in a day. But what really matters is how it functions. The large capacity is a lifesaver – finally, casserole dishes fit without a fight! The large turntable ensures even heating, no more lukewarm burritos. The coolest feature, though? SmartThings app integration! No more hovering by the microwave, wondering if my nuggets are about to explode. My phone dings to let me know when dinner's done. Genius! The only downside? The buttons aren't lit up at night. So yeah, gotta keep a nightlight nearby for those late-night microwave adventures. Overall, this microwave is a winner. It looks good, heats evenly, and has some cool smart features (minus the nightlight issue). If you're a busy parent who needs a little sanity saver in the kitchen, this might be the microwave for you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice size to fit everything you would need or want in a microwave. Easy to install and flip the fans to exhaust upwards. Quiet and fast cooking with easy-to-use touch capacitive buttons. Helpful features using the Samsung app and can be connected to sync with Samsung stove to auto turn on fan when cooking with stove top. So far loving the microwave after owning for almost 8 months.
