Yeah I have a family member with Samsung appliances. The microwave actually often runs for a moment after you close its door (when the microwave time has completed and you opened the door and got your item out, and then closed the door). The fridge is the worst-designed fridge I've ever used in my life. It's split vertically, and the icemaker/water-dispenser takes up a seriously large portion of the freezer side. It's mind-boggling. Half the cells on the LCD of the oven don't work. The oven light switches on and off repeatedly as you open the oven door. All of these appliances are a handful of years old...

Oh I have a Samsung monitor, and pretty much exactly at a year, it developed a problem where, if you turn it on after it was off for some time, it gets this really strange "displays nothing but weird clouds of blurred colours" effect. Exactly like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMoHEJaNd10 Sad stuff. Never buying another product from them again.

Maybe? But it only started happening recently, and no settings or anything have been changed. It makes the bassy operational noise as if it's indeed actually warming :-O
