 |
|
Well, the "new" oven we purchased 3 months ago is making a grinding noise inside. This will be repair number 2 on that product. It's one of those table-top ovens that doubles as a microwave.
Wondering if we should call service now and have them tell us there is nothing wrong, or wait for it to totally die so they can't deny there isn't a problem.
Last time they came out to service the product, the service guy wanted us to return it so he wouldn't have to fix it (because he didn't know how). |

I always seem to go for the LG product rather than the Samsung. LG is usually about 10% cheaper than Samsung but the quality level seems the same.
Except for our LG vacuum cleaner, which sucked!!  |

I would agree with this.
They also charge MORE for the same items here. By the way, we went with a Samsung oven instead of the LG because our LG television sucked, and required several repairs!  |

| Yup.. my ex husband always insisted on buying overseas stuff. Our oven is Rinnai. It's 9 years old now and still going strong. I want to get a new one, but i am not sure how much longer I am going to be in Korea, so getting one seems a bit of a waste for now... |

| My LG vacuum cleaner also sucks. I'm about to bite the bullet and buy a new one. Any recommendations for a brand/model which is cheap but good and compact? |

Samsuck makes one for around 60,000 that's sold at E-mart. The bags are cheap and plentiful on the web too. |

I didnt like the Samsung ovens, so I ended up with the LG Dios Oven.
I've had it for 2 years and no problems yet; knock on wood. |

I have a cheap Unimax vaccum cleaner I have had for almost 4 years now. The thing takes a beating, and keep on working just as well as it did the day i bought it. Granted I live in a 1-room..and don't use any attachments for it...i just use a dust wand to sweep everything to one area and use the handheld to suck it up.
I have had trouble with it once where the wires for power came disconnected where it exits the device (my fault for winding the cord around the unit too tight) but a simple re-splice solved the problem. Regular cleaning of the filter and it sucks just as well as anyone could ask for a 15,000, cheapest unit available at emart. |

| You call it Samsuck because you had a problem with one product? Samsung is a top brand these days in almost everything they make, especially in electronics. Perhaps you're not into electronics much. |

I especially like how the OP trashes Samsung and recommends them in the same thread.
