Overheats, doesn't work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm on my second one of these with the same issue. I was hoping the first was just fluke. Unfortunately this microwave overheats very quickly tripping the thermal fuse and shutting off all power to the unit (within 5 minutes). The fan doesn't come on at all while cooking. After just about 2 minutes the side and top of the microwave are very hot to the point of burning when touched. Very disappointed because this microwave has a great look. I will be returning this and going for a different brand.

Overheats easily
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In the 3 weeks we have owned this oven it has shut itself down (no power at all indicated) due to the unit overheating after 5-7 minutes of cooking. I anticipate this model being recalled later due to this problem.
