QuestionHow many "safety" (don't open till beeping stops) beeps does this MW have at the end of cycle, to keep microwave from affecting you adversely? Isn't 6 times the norm? Thanks!
Asked 7 months ago by needcoffee.
- Answer Thank you for your inquiry! The Insignia™ 1.1 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave typically emits five beeps at the end of its cooking cycle. These beeps serve as an audible alert to let you know the cycle has finished and it's safe to open the door. While some microwaves may beep six times or more, five beeps is within the normal range and is not unusual. These end-of-cycle beeps are not specifically a safety mechanism to protect against microwave radiation—modern microwaves are already designed with shielding and door interlocks to prevent any exposure. Instead, the beeping is simply a user-friendly feature to ensure you don’t forget your food or open the door prematurely. Keith | Insignia Support

QuestionIs it normal for the top of the microwave get hot even when not in use?
Asked 7 months ago by Vovchik.
- Answer It is not normal for the top of the Insignia™ 1.1 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave to become hot when it is not in use. If this happens, it could be due to a nearby heat source, such as a stove or oven, causing the microwave to absorb external heat. Another possibility is poor ventilation—if the microwave is placed in a tight space or the vents are blocked, heat can build up even when the unit is idle. In some cases, an internal electrical issue might be the cause, which would require professional inspection. If the microwave was recently used, a bit of residual warmth is expected, but it should cool down quickly. If the top remains hot consistently while not in use, it’s best to unplug the unit and contact our Insignia customer support for assistance. Ivy | Insignia Support

QuestionWhy was this included when I searched for flatbed microwaves only? To me that means I DO NOT want microwaves included in results if they have a turntable.
Asked 9 months ago by Jane.
- Answer This microwave has a HOT high-power microwave tube and without a turntable the unit would overcook some areas and under cook other areas of your food. You would want a low power microwave tube in order to cook evenly without a turn table.

QuestionIs it possible to cook something AND have the timer running at the same time?
Asked 10 months ago by Erle.
- Answer Hi there. For the Insignia™ 1.1 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave, it is not possible to run the timer and cook food simultaneously. The microwave's design allows either cooking or using the timer, but not both at the same time. If you need to keep track of time while cooking, you might consider using a separate kitchen timer or a timer on your phone. Ivy | Insignia Support
