Afternoon all,

Been working with Paul on the phone offline on this.  Paul brought up a great 
point-how do you know a neighbor does not have one of these stoves and that I 
am turning theirs on?  Point being that yes, it is fundamentally broken by 
design, but, Samsung needs to be held accountable for this.

Second point that Dave brought up-the oven is new. We have only had it in use 
since the end of January. BUT, we bought it last August when we started the 
complete Reno-gut-job on this house and it sat in the box for months. Lowe’s 
will not return it and I don’t even want to try and explain why and how it is 
‘broken’ to them.

I am not really interested in bandaids and workarounds but if it come to that 
or kicking a 1200.00 stove to the trash, I may reconsider. Thanks to the folks 
that pointed out that I meant ferrite and not ferrets. I laughed harder than I 
should have at that!

I am going to try and get further up the Samsung food chain on this issue. A 
side note: our kitchen is 100% Samsung. Fridge, Microwave, dishwasher, and 
oven. All have some sort of touch interface but the oven is the only affected 
appliance. I would welcome the dishwasher starting and doing the dishes on 
their own!  HI HI
