It works just as advertised. I was looking for something quiet because my husband sleeps during the day. The door is quiet and all the beeps/alarms can be turned off. The noise while it is heating also is fairly quiet compared to microwaves I've had before. 100% Recomend.

While purchased earlier is was not used until 3/28/24.
We have only used a couple of times. It is great for microwave rice. It did do microwave bacon, but left a lot of liquid puddles. In order to wipe down I needed to remove the glass plate. Hence 4 stars. So far it works well for a small microwave. Easy to use, quiet operation and well lit.

Great “small” microwave. Got this after our slightly larger and fancier model broke when my child inadvertently microwaved something with metal … now she knows not to! This new microwave is simple and effective, fits all our plates, and looks nice too. Highly recommend it. If you just need a microwave to heat things up or defrost, this one is great.

Sleek, compact, and very well made. This Breville microwave is perfect for small kitchens but still feels premium. The soft-close door is a standout feature—quiet and smooth—and the controls are intuitive and precise. Heats food evenly and looks great on the counter. The build quality and design make it worth it.

Purchased for brand reputation and small size. Looks good, doesn’t take up a lot of space and very quiet when operating. The door is a soft close, however, after several months of use, the door latch gets stuck in the open position and it needs to be slammed shut. That is disappointing.

My old microwave died, so began the lookout for a new one. Did some research online and saw good reviews for this Breville. I have one of their countertop ovens and really like the quality and simplicity of the design. This is no different: seems high quality and easy to use. I like the slightly raised on/off buttons and the knob to turn for specific minutes of cooking time. Can turn the beeping off easily if that bothers you. The door shuts quietly, as they say, AND it runs very quietly too. (Or perhaps my old one was loud.) Yes, it was pricey and not available everywhere but Best Buy had it, delivered promptly and I'm a happy camper.

This small but mighty microwave works well for all kitchen needs. We are a household that uses it heavily. We feed our dogs fresh and raw food so it gets used several times a day to warm their food as well as the amount we use it for human food. it is holding up better than more expensive larger microwaves that we have purchased in the past. It is worth every penny. Also we love the soft close door. The compact size means it takes up minimal counter space. I would highly recommend this one for any family.

Another fantastic product from Breville. We have the convection oven and love it. So when the door button started to go on our current microwave, I checked to see what Breville had. Really like the door that opens without a button and that I can adjust the time with the dial. My last microwave wouldn’t let you add 15 seconds. My steamer fits, as does my bacon tray. The quick buttons are easy to use.

Terrific Microwave, With Caveat

Giving this 4 stars with a caveat. I owned one of these prior to this purchase, (LOVED IT) but a guest broke a piece off the inside door (sleeve caught on closure) and we could not fix. So ordered another one to replace. The new one was loud for some reason (the first one was the quietest I'd ever had and loved it) and the second time I used it, it made a popping noise. Nope... took it back.
I contacted Breville re both incidents and it took quite a while for them to get back and they kept asking for numbers that I could not locate on the item. I sent them photos and numbers and they kept asking for info, so not so much for their process of customer service. Hard for a family to be w/o this device while company figures things out on their own business time.
Easier to return.
I think second experience was an aberration so I do recommend this device (although I just ended up buying a small cheap one for now to replace) and customers should know that normally, it is a very nice looking microwave (not compact in my view, but not huge), super quiet close and super quiet cooking (with no beep option which we also loved) and if you get anything that doesn't function that way - take it back.

When my longtime microwave died, I did my homework and bought an LG microwave at Best Buy. The ratings and price were good, though when I started using it I found the keypad was small and hard to see.
I noticed a scratch on the top of the machine, so I went back to Best Buy to get another. that's when I noticed the Breville microwaves. They were expensive, and the smallest (0.9 cu.ft.) was $60 more than my LG. But I loved the user-friendly keypad and the "soft-close" doors, found on all the Breville models.
I bought that 0.9 cu.ft. model, and am so glad I did, it's so much better than the LG. The keypad with it's round user-friendly buttons, the soft-close door with it's suction-like technology, and the great looking design ALL convince me I made the right decision by going with Breville instead of LG. (Thank God for that scratch I noticed on the LG!)
The one complaint I guess, which is not related to Breville, is due to going with the 0.9 cu.ft. model instead of the 1.6 cu.ft. one I had. I'm moving, and needed to downsize in my kitchen. Due to the decrease in power, I need to cook things longer than with my old Panasonic model, but no big deal.
I'm very happy with the Breville microwave. It's a bit more expensive, but it's worth every penny. The design, including (especially) the keypad with it's round soft buttons and the "soft-close" door, shows the design engineers knew their stuff.
I know it's a cliche', but it's so true here- you get what you pay for. And in this case it's Quality.

This is a great product. Simple, easy to use, effective. It reminds me of the commercial microwaves I used in professional kitchens for years. Built well, everything feels great. No unnecessary buttons. Just does a great job cooking food.
