After a few days of having the stove it would give a SE error and shut off all the burners. I had to reset the breaker outside to get it to work again only to have it go out a few minutes later. I called the service people and they came out and said it needed a new mother board, 3 weeks later the board was replaced. Later that afternoon the SE returned and shut off the burners again only I didn’t need to reset the breaker just the key pad every time. Three weeks late they replaced the keypad board. I showed the tech that I had figured out if a drop of water gets on the top left OFF key of the key pad it will error out. You will note the location of this OFF button is right on the edge of the pan and condensation builds up and drops water on it. He called Samsung and said that was an anti-boil over setting and couldn’t be changed, so all this time it was a design issue. The large burner is too big for most pans the one in the back is also too far back that the pan hits the stove the one in front is too close to control. The racks scrape the side of the oven and don’t slide out very easy and it takes a long time for the oven to heat up even on convection. Bad location of controls and burners… and in the morning the SE error is on. It’s going back …by the way did I mention don’t buy this stove!!!

I have talked to GE and its not on their database for Canada yet, still waiting CSA approval, if infact that have it sent for approval yet. I have a call into GE head office.. but they have to email a product buyer to find out if its in the works.. so that might take a while. I've also asked Electrolux to confirm if they are actually comng out with one too.. again it might take a while to come to Canada for CSA. Meanwhile the Sears is the best choice. Samsung is over priced in Canada.. its about $800 cheaper in the US. So far the only two ranges I can find in Canada are the Sears and the Samsung.

Their sales service is great, but if you have a problem with the appliance it's like pulling teeth to even be able to find a real live person to talk to. Just search for "sears complaints" on the Web and you will be amazed at how many people have problems with Sears. I personally know of three others in my small office who are going through similar frustrating customer "service" experiences with Sears Canada right now.

As a 15 month induction user, I LOVE induction!
