A series of Samsung slide-In electric ranges has been recalleddue to a fire hazard.

The issue is that the front-mounted knobs on the stove are so sensitive that people and even pets can “accidentally activate” them by bumping into them, posing a fire hazard if flammable objects have been left on top of the range.
