Personally I would return it and give it another shot. If this was the only issue you had. Because mine sits inside a cabinet that is a big concern and my exterior did not get real hot. Just very warm and no problem to touch or lay your hands on it. I always test that out. Not only because of the cabinet but I also have a toddler in my home. My review wasn't good for other reasons.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Cooking foods in a microwave oven for an extended period of time can cause heat to transfer to the internal oven walls and floor as well as the external cabinet. In addition to the heat that is generated outward from the food being cooked, the oven interior lamp and the magnetron tube will also contribute to external heat transfer. This condition is considered normal. Should you have extreme heat from your microwave that creates a concern, you can schedule an appointment with one of our Bodewell technicians by calling 1-833-4BODEWELL.
