To be fair, I have had a number of cheap laser printers from Samsung over the years and never had any problems. I have a Samsung monitor I bought about 6 months ago which appeared to have a fault, the display needed adjusting. I couldn't fix it as there were no adjustment controls; when I contacted Samsung they wanted me to send it back but agreed to give me a returns number so I took it back to PC World who replaced it. The replacement had an identical problem which the manager and I spent 30 minutes trying to fix until one of his assistants managed to use the only control, the power switch, to call up a menu and adjust it - basically very poor design. Apart from that though it is an excellent monitor.
