Poorly constructed. Lasted less than 18 months
||Posted .Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.Looked nice and worked fine. Within 18 months, with only infrequent usage, microwave door developed a small crack. Unrelatedly, the door handle came off. It turns out it had been glued on. Poor construction. Poor value. Since it came with a one year warranty and it's been 18 months, I'm out of luck. Would absolutely not buy again.

Only lasted 2 years
||Posted .Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.Only lasted 2 years before the handle broke off. I have never had any appliance break that soon. The GE microwave prior to this one lasted over 9 years before needing to be replaced. The cliche holds true - you get what you pay for.

Ok Microwave but very loud while in use.
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I think the delivery and install was great. Fast delivery. But after using the microwave, I am not a fan of the fan turning on while in use. It is extremely loud. It does look nice but I do not like the noise. We don't use it too much so it's pretty much for show. Other than that, decent microwave for the price.

Q: QuestionDoes this need to be vented outside or can it be installed on an interior wall?
Asked by Carol.
- A:Answer You have 3 options for venting. The internal vent up from the cook top thru Charcoal activated screens venting back into the room out of the top, front vents of the unit. This would be your internal wall installation without any ducting. This can take care of some smells but will not filter a lot of smoke. Option 2 is through the top of the cabinet, this is the preferable option removing all smells and smoke to the outside approved vent. Option 3 is the least popular as it requires a wall channel to be installed and it vents all smells and smoke out the back of the unit again to an approved vent to the outside.

Q: QuestionDoes the listed depth (17.6 in) include the microwave handle sticking out? I want to make sure it will fit depth wise under my top cabinet, I don't necessarily need to know the depth including the handle, just the depth of the boxed part.
Asked by Tanya.
- A:Answer Don’t buy this oven. Is very noisy
Answered by Calzadalvaro
Q: QuestionCan this microwave be installed under my cabinet ? Because I didn’t understand what under the range mean ..
Asked by Rain.
- A:Answer Hello Rain, Yes, it can be. But do not install within a closed cabinet or a cut-out space where the bottom is covered. These can be installed under a cabinet, even if there is not a cooking surface underneath the appliance. However, the height clearances outlined in the Installation Instructions must still be met.

Q: QuestionThe door latch was broken, is a repair part available somewhere?
Asked by whereisthespareparts.
- A:Answer so if its the same issue regarding it clicking at first near the hinge then after a couple of times the clips come off near thence for the cover, I used a butter knife to flare it out just a hair. as for replacements your best bet is to contact bestbuy if you just bought it, if you've had it for a while try contacting insignia.
