Great Micro ! For the money and size. Not the most powerfull, but seems to cook stuff equal to 1100 watt units I have had. Have had zero Issues with it, and after replacing 2-3 old ones now that had quirks early in there existence. This one seems to be the resolution so far ! HAPPY

Is there Quality Control?

I had high hopes for this unit based on all of the positive reviews. Sadly my experience didn't measure up. I had some issues getting the top template to line up properly to start with, an issue I didn't have with the unit this one replaced. When I finally got the thing hung up I opened the door to peel of the protective plastic and the door fell off the top hinge into my hands. The bottom hinge stayed connected, but luckily I had a butter knife nearby to use as a lever and allow the hinge pin to slide back into the hinge. I then had to attempt to bend the hinge to stay engaged.
This all happened the night before Thanksgiving so I couldn't call for support, and needed the thing working for the next day. Since then the hinge is a little stiff, but functional. The controls on this thing are inconvenient at best. My previous unit allowed you to type a number for multi-select options like power, or sensor cook setting, this unit forces you to press the button multiple times to select an option.
The features on this thing are pretty basic for the cost. Especially when similar devices were $100-$150 less. The ~10 year old previous unit that this one replaced had a ton of features and cooking modes, most of which I never used, so I convinced myself the simpler feature set might be better. Unfortunately, without adjusting for inflation I paid about the same amount for the old unit and this unit, so ultimately it really feels like an expensive step down for this unit.
In the end I paid more for this unit than comparable competitors because it had more positive reviews for the score than those competitors. If it weren't so difficult to drop it down and return it, It'd have been returned already. Finally, the features for the price are pretty minimalistic. The quality is lacking. And the interface is inconvenient. But it does cook food (just don't try to soften butter unless you want it to melt and super heat it)

Brand response from FrigidaireSupport

Hello Serpent77, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback about your recent experience with your Frigidaire unit. I completely understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with installation issues, especially with the door hinge falling off, and I can only imagine the added stress of having this happen right before Thanksgiving. I’m glad to hear that you were able to get the hinge back in place and that the unit is at least functional, but I understand it’s far from the smooth experience you expected.
I also hear your concerns regarding the control interface and the feature set. It’s clear that this unit hasn’t met your expectations compared to your previous model, and I understand how disappointing that feels, especially given the cost and your hopes based on positive reviews. Your feedback about usability and feature functionality is important and will be shared with our product team to help improve future designs.
If you have any additional suggestions, comments, or concerns, please join us via Live Chat on our website or through our Customer Support by dialing 1-800-374-4432. We are available Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. EST, and would be happy to assist further or discuss potential solutions.
Thank you again for your detailed review and for allowing us to address your concerns. I hope the rest of your experience with your unit improves, and that your holidays are off to a better start. - Maico

Very nice. We had more or less same model before and it died after 8 years. But Frigidaire made some nice improvements. The LED lighting in the oven and under the vent are really appreciated. Also controls seem a bit more modern. Very happy.

A Great Choice for a Microwave

I researched many microwaves and selected this one. It is not cluttered with settings I’ll never use - like “Kids Meals”. The bright inside with white walls is great. Like it has LED lighting. Still need to learn more about “Sensor Cook”. Would definitely recommend.

This microwave has excellent choices for reheating, rapid heating express settings, and superior lighting inside and over my range. The fan is quieter than my previous GE product. It looks nice and so far is easy to use and clean. It’s only 2 weeks since installation.

I love the look of this microwave. I haven’t yet figured out how to get it to warm my food how I like it. It always seems too hot or too cold. It also doesn’t seem to allow for a two stage warm up using different power levels like my old Frigidaire microwave did.
