    This is the 2nd one of this model we have purchased. After our son tried to microwave potato chips to remove the staleness from them, it ended up in a small fire. The microwave contained the burning and proved that it was one powerful unit.

    This microwave is good except I learned the difference between 1100 and 1500 now I know that this microwave has to be watched even though the food does cook fast and learning the different ways are good. My review is average because I'm still learning.
