  How in the hell did this make it to market?

    Mass consumerism and companies not caring.

      Their target audiences are home flippers who just need the cheapest stainless steel appliances that look fine at a glance, and cheap landlords that don’t understand that they’re choosing themselves more money in the long run.

        I don’t get how this would be cheaper to manufacture. They’d need to make five different knobs.

    They had different teams working on each knob to speed up the design process.

      Everything Samsung is bad (except some phones). TV are cripples with ads, fridges, there’s a whole sub about how bad they are… and so on.

        Just wait until they start charging subscription fees for appliance features. Believe me, that’s coming.

      Absolutely. Their washing machines are notoriously bad.

  You can get an engraver for like $12 of Amazon, with a little practice you can probably ingrave new numbers and paint fill them.

  Technically they can use their picture as reference and maybe order a sticker with the settings printed.
