I had a 65 inch Samsung which died after 3 years of snowbird use which worked out to about 1 1/2 years of actual use.. Luckily I had a 4 year square trade warranty and they replaced the TV. I asked them if I could get a warranty on the replacement but they don't warranty replacements. Since I was throwing out the old TV I thought I'd take a look at the innards. There were 2 four inch circuit boards connected by a ribbon cable. 80% of the rest was empty space.

I also owned a Samsung dishwasher. The dishwasher door opens automatically after the wash is done. After the first wash it opened but you couldn't close it anymore. I called Samsung and after a extended conversation (this was during their Note phone problems) they agreed to give me my money back and I got a Kitchen Aid. I wouldn't buy any appliance without at least a 5 year warranty and I am done with Samsung.
