Nostalgia Electrics - Retro Series 0.9 Cu. Ft. Compact Microwave - Black

My large Sharp microwave finally stopped working for the silly reason that the keypad "start" button wore out. I thought about fixing it and then realized that new microwaves are too inexpensive to mess around with repairs. I also realized that I didn't need the size I had because I didn't really cook as much as reheat food in the microwave. This small unit takes less counter space, is much quieter, and looks great in my modern artsy kitchen. The knobs take a little getting used to, because although everyone knows how to use a keypad, you need a little time with the user manual to figure this one out. Still the functionality is there as well as simplicity and a real handle to open the door so you don't need to search for recessed latches or use two hands to open the door. Just remember this is a compact oven and don't expect to cook a turkey in it. I'd say this is perfect for a dorm room or kitchenette.

I wanted this microwave the moment I saw it online. I ordered it in the store on a Friday and was expecting it to take 5 business days, but it was on my doorstep on Tuesday ! It is lightweight and compact, works well and does everything I need it to do. It is so cute and my teenage kids love it. I basically reheat things and cook simple things and it does a great job. Everything is heated evenly and properly. I haven't tried popcorn yet, but I will.

Wonderful unit for a single person that does not need a huge microwave. Even though they did not make microwaves in the fiifties, the nostalgic appearance is awesome and enhances my decor. Considering the price, features, ease of use and looks it was a smart purchase.

We like the look, size and price. Sales rep was awesome. It has a dial to set cooking time. Delivery was 4 days faster than we were told. The email that told us was shipped was a nice touch. Sears does that too.

After shopping around I could not find a microwave that didn't look like a box until I came across this one. My husband and I love it.

Good looking, works well, simple, easy-to-use controls.

don't need to..what can i say...great product.....

Recommended - for the function and price. Love the 50's retro design!
