    We only use a microwave to heat leftovers. This unit works as anticipated. Only complaint is that it is a little loud. I also observed that the window appears to show steam on the left side but it quickly goes away after the door has been opened when removing the food.

    I had this same microwave for seven years and was please with it for that length of time, unfortunately it stopped working. I was unable to have it repaired as they did not make parts for that model any longer. However, I was able to find this model which is almost the same and fits perfectly in the same spot as the other one.

    Pros: Looks good, many good functions, does the job. Cons: Like many over the range microwaves, takes two people to handle installation and function keys are not lit up and blends with the microwave cabinet making them difficult to see.

    Beautiful addition to my kitchen. It works great. The only problem is the control buttons are hard to read on the black background, especially at night. It would be better if they were brighter.

    So far so good. The only thing I dont like is the way it automatically comes built with the exhaust fan blocked. I need to take it back down after initial installation and reverse the fan to blow out front.
