Seeing how Samsung has manufacturing plants all over the world, there's a possibility that even the same model of appliance can be made in different factories/countries. Can I ask why it makes a difference where it was manufactured? I don't have a Samsung microwave, but a quick search indicates that Samsung Microwaves are primarily manufactured in South Korea, China, Viet Nam and India. I am not sure they manufacture anything in Malaysia. If you are thinking of buying one of those models, you can go to a store and look at the label.
I am asking because nobody has these in stock locally. I refuse to buy a microwave made in China. If that is the case with this model, I'll buy a commercial unit made in the USA.
More than likely it was produced in South Korea. As far as microwaves go, I'm sure there are better brands. Good luck finding one manufactured here, though. I think GE manufactures in Kentucky. But, GE is now owned by Haier, which is a Chinese company, if that's your sole criterion.
