    Insignia Countertop Microwave

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently purchased the Insignia countertop microwave from Best Buy, and I’m very happy with my purchase. The microwave heats food quickly and quietly, is easy to use, and fits perfectly on my countertop without taking up too much space. The controls are simple, and it works great for everyday meals and snacks. What really stood out was the great customer service at Best Buy—the staff was friendly, helpful, and made the buying process smooth and easy. I would definitely recommend this microwave to others looking for a reliable and affordable option.

    Six Week Review

    My prior LG countertop microwave lasted only 7 years. Unlike a remodel or a move-in, this micro purchase was sudden and unexpected. Microwave ovens most usually just die without warning. The magnetron, where the radiation is generated—the heart of the oven—-just quit all of the sudden. So with the expectation to replace like with like, we knew what we wanted for a family of four: Large interior (2.0 cu ft), countertop size, handle on door, no annoying end of cycle jingle, and express time entry pad interface ( “1” = one minute, etc). Things the non-functional LG oven did not have or could do. Besides this new oven being a little loud, and the door hinge seemingly weak in design that could cause the door to sag in the future, this is a very capable microwave that could last many years! Best Buy’s “Insignia” house brand has always impressed us with TV’s, and now microwaves. No, it’s not the GE equivalent, but it could very well be (we’ll see, but also, as a side note, most microwave ovens, not all, but most, are made by Midea or Galanz in China, anyways). P.S. we didn’t want any apps communicating with the oven. Been there, done that. Hate LG. Really liking the Insignia.

    Great value

    I replaced this item with a lager size. I love this microwave. The only difference that I have noticed is, me having to squeeze the upper door handle to open the door. I love the size, power and just being able to cook more at once. Oh, not to forget getting a great deal on purchasing open box item.

    Great large microwave for the price

    Its a great value for a large 2.2 cu ft microwave. A microwave this size normally costs double at another retailer. Its also quiet compared to my old microwave.

Questions & Answers
  • Is there a way to disable the child lock on this microwave? We don't have children and would love to just pull the handle and have the microwave open.

    Hello, thanks for sharing your question. To disable the control lock on your Insignia microwave, simply press and hold the "Stop/Cancel" button for 3 to 5 seconds until you hear a beep and the lock indicator disappears from the display. Please note that while this unlocks the keypad, the door handle itself is a manual pull and does not have a separate electronic lock. Mueez | Insignia
