Easy to use
No complaints. Works great. Powerful and accommodating for entire plates or containers of restaurant leftovers. Looks good with both my stainless and black appliances. Door lock feature is nice to keep the kids from grabbing hot items from the microwave.

Very good product
Works amazing, reheats up food instantly. Quiet, efficient, and powerful! Does not get stains quickly on the outside and very easy to clean on the inside. Also has a locking method so if it’s in a place where little kids can access/reach they can’t open it until it’s unlocked. Instruction manual explains everything this microwave is equipped with
