We've got a multi-Sonos setup, so I'm speaking with some experience on nearly every item they produce. If you are looking at a Sonos, you probably aren't as concerned about the cost as you are the functionality... the AMP delivers! I connected it to a pair of outdoor speakers and it is so nice to have a zone for the patio. If this is your first Sonos, welcome to the club, but if you just need to add some non-powered speakers to your Sonos system, this is the ticket. Actually... it may be the only choice, but it still rocks!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The "healthy frying" function alone is with it! We had removed an ancient over-the-stove microwave and replaced it with a hood, so we needed a countertop microwave. I also wanted a countertop convection oven so the Samsung was on my "list." The style is beautiful and the pull-down door is great, especially for tight spaces. The menu can be a little intimidating as it has WAY more functionality than a traditional microwave. I love my deep fryer so I was skeptical of the healthy frying function but... it is AMAZING. The included plate and elevated interior platform cooked up two servings of frozen sweet potato fries (perfect) in about 25min. Sure-longer than frying but with ZERO oil. It alternates convection and microwave on a special included plate. Why only 4-stars? It doesn't let you select single-sized popcorn as a preset. Another minor issue is the complexity... you MUST have the manual handy if you are using any of "new" functions. It could be that I'm just used to having a basic feature-set, and the new functions are fairly logical, but it will take some time to adjust. If you are a moderate-serious cook or just need an extra oven, you won't be disappointed.

Reggie, I'm sure you already did, but call Sonos customer service and they'll walk you through the troubleshooting.

Is the cooker very noisy? Is it easy to clean?

Not especially. keep in mind that it has several functions, so the convection oven sound will be louder than another function. It's more than a microwave. Not as loud as a vent hood, for example.

Does it function as a toaster oven

I.e. Can it make toast or grilled cheese
Not in the traditional sense. It does have a grill function and it does have a great pizza function (with included plate).
