    Overall it is a good appliance. The lock feature can not be turned off and it makes a audible humming noise. Recommend? most likely except for noise

    A great microwave with multiple function. Quiet and like the fact it makes a quite ‘ding” when done instead of the annoying beeping of other microwaves. The soft closing door is a nice feature. Another great item from Breville to add to the collection.

    Great design and even better performance. Cooks evenly and quickly. I love all the little built in features(like sensor cooking that you input what you are cooking and it senses when it is finished cooking) that save time and guessing. The soft close door is another plus, if your hands are full when taking out food out of the microwave you can use your elbow to close and it slowly closes. Worth the extra money for sure!

    Love how user friendly this microwave is and the screen that clearly lists what function you are using. For the cost I expected a bit more.... the clock is not backlit and you can barely read the time... the popcorn function DOES NOT WORK WELL AT ALL, and only pops a partial bag. We have even tried manual time for the popcorn, and it only pops a partial bag. Our old microwave was a cheap model and worked perfectly for popcorn ... and lasted many, many years. Overall we love the unit, but these are real let downs on this unit. Not so sure it’s worth the costly price tag.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    A microwave unlike any other!

    The Smooth Wave is without a doubt the best microwave I’ve ever used - everything from the way it cooks to the little touches Breville has added to make it easy and pleasant to use. Once you get used to the soft close door you’ll be gently closing every microwave door, only to see the door bounce back while you sit there scratching your head for a second. Speaking of cooking, I’ve noticed that the magnetron is able to operate at a set power level unlike other microwaves where you reduce the power and it operates in a “100% on/100% off” sort of cycle. This is brilliant for leftovers or really anything you’re reheating. Cheese? Melty. Egg? McMuffin style. Leftovers? Better than the first time. It will truly make you want to microwave everything. Lastly, I can’t end the review before mentioning the smart reheat function… it’s usually spot on! Occasionally you’ll have some areas that get a little hotter, but nothing so far has had that strange “microwaved” quality. Overall, this microwave has earned a place on our counter and in our hearts!

    We needed a small under counter microwave. This one is great. Looks impressive and works wonderfully. We don't use it but for reheating and defrosting. I like that our plates fit in. Some small ones I understand thats a problem. The preset buttons that are hidden till you open the door are very handy. Soft close door is a nice feature.

    Yes ... you will love this microwave. All you have to do to is try the "butter softening " quick button and you are in love. Heats everything evenly . Defrost actually defrosted meat instead of cooking it !. Only thing you have to do is make sure the door is closes all the way or the turn table won't work. Hands down wonderful microwave!

    I’m very enthusiastic about All the features of this microwave such as a favorites button, and all the other shortcuts. But it’s best feature is how it cooks evenly, and you can barely hear it when functioning. The door nearly closes by itself and it looks fantastic. Never again do I need to press buttons for time.
