Get dinner on the table. The five-burner stovetop on this Samsung range gives you even more space to get your gourmet going. Dual oven temperatures and double doors let you vary up your menu and bake or roast at the same time. Plus, you can control it all remotely if you download the app to your smart device.

Great Product!

We have the range at home for 2 months now and use it regularly. I have read most of the reviews that were posted and thought I can add a little more.
First, let me say that most of the cooking we do at home is performed at the range top - and of the five burners we have not yet used the center one. But the four that we use are truly outstanding! This area is clearly a HUGE strength of this appliance and it is versatile and easy to use. The 22k burner is extremely powerful - probably as powerful as it gets without going to very high end line. With it we reached searing and oil heating temperature that we have never thought possible on a stove top yet it can be lowered to near-simmer levels. The second strongest (15K) is excellent as well, and the smallest one is a true simmer burner. I really like the design that leaves enough space in the back so that larger skillets or pots can be placed there without overlapping the front burners area.
As for the stove, we mostly use the two compartments configuration with the divider in (only once we cooked with the divider out). We do not bake cookies or cakes so I do not have much to say there, but we do cook meat, chicken, fish, and vegetables. Having two compartments is so nice especially when you have a dinner with several courses to bake or roast. Things just move so much faster altogether and of course you can use the compartment to keep things warm before serving.
We do not find it a problem that "broil" is only at the top and "bake-no convection" only at the bottom, since you can choose where you place things based on what you need. We have used the oven about a dozen times so far and without exception the results were excellent! Love the touch controls - very easy to follow and responsive.
Finally - heat vent - mainly at the back, through very active fans, no problem at all. During extended cooking in the oven, all the external surfaces are only slightly warm and there is no issue of escaping heat, hot knobs, etc.
Altogether - for what we need - a great buy!

Type of Listener:Audiophile
Most Important to Purchase:Sound quality
How Often Used:Daily
Bought it for the great sound as displayed in the store demo. I waited a couple months for a price drop which finally came (better hurry because it is being discontinued). Beautiful item with deep, rich sound. I am mostly using it through the earphone jack to my laptop computer. The system does not have its own equalizer which can result in a "boomy" output if your source does not have sufficient audio controls (the woofer is strong and dominant). Changing the equalizer settings on your source can have a very profound effect on the quality of the sound. especially with bringing up the higher tones. The specific location/placement of the unit makes a difference for the sound quality as well - raising it 5-6 inches from the surface makes for a better sound.. Once you have that taken care off- the system sounds fantastic - and over a wide volume range too!

Overall
4 out of 5
4 out of 5Not a TRUE double oven, but it works really good!
By Etnadian
I have had this installed for a few weeks now and can give a few pros and cons....
Pros: Stove top heats quickly and cleans up nice.
Illuminated dials show when one is on with a glance, which is nice when you have a burner turned on but is not lit.
Wi Fi controls a bit cumbersome, but nice to adjust oven and timer from your phone.
Oven heats rapidly and convection cooks really quick without adjusting recipe temps.
-----------------------------------
Cons: Top oven has a tendency to crisp up the top of things being baked. DO NOT USE TOP OVEN FOR CAKES as it will burn the top before it even is done. Pizza, cookies, meats and such come out fine. Even cooked a frozen pie well in the top as long as the rack in the top portion is at it's lowest. sometimes a bit of foil covering will help keep the tops from scorching. Remember the heating comes out of the TOP burner which is also used to broil, so it's quite hot. We typically keep the rack in the top oven at it's LOWEST point.
The oven vents it's heat from top back of the unit which will melt things hanging on the back-splash. Keep in mind that the heat coming from these vents is quite intense and I advise a heat resistant back-splash wall like tile, stone or metal.
---------------------
Conclusion: Because I didn't expect it to run exactly like a typical dual oven, I'm not disappointed. I'm learning where to place things to get the best results. My mother-in-law absolutely loves it even with the top oven issue. Nothing that couldn't be adjusted. I have instructed her to use the lower oven for corn bread and cakes to help with the top burning issue. I'd give it 5 stars, but with the limitations from the top oven and WiFi features being so limited, I have given it 4.

Top oven
January 22, 2017
the comment about the top oven tendency to crisp things up is true - we actually like it - we have meats or casseroles uncovered for the last 20-30 minutes to get things crispy at the top. For cakes perhaps it is better to use the bottom part or remove the divider and use the oven as single compartment. The comment about the vent in the back being powerful is very true - it works pretty well to keep the front side cool, but it is highly recommended to have tile or metal on the wall there, which we do. I have Would still give it 5 stars!

Can two DAE751ZA's be used to play the same music simultaneously in stereo?
I would say no because it does not have direct audio speaker plugs other than the earphone jack.
