However, this has little to do with anything Samsung specific. The front side "push and turn" types of knows are par for the course across many brands and have existed for a good many decades. Samsungs voluntary recall is a know replacement that you have to squeeze, push, and turn instead of the standard push and turn. Essentially, samsung just made a much safer front knob for a stove than anyone else offers.
It's still a samsung appliance, though. So it will probably break every other year until you give up and throw it away.
