      100% agree. Their appliances suck.

      However, this has little to do with anything Samsung specific. The front side “push and turn” types of knows are par for the course across many brands and have existed for a good many decades. Samsungs voluntary recall is a know replacement that you have to squeeze, push, and turn instead of the standard push and turn. Essentially, samsung just made a much safer front knob for a stove than anyone else offers.

      It’s still a samsung appliance, though. So it will probably break every other year until you give up and throw it away.
