  • Breaks down after a year

    This model has been good for us up until recently. We purchased it February 2020. Now it does not heat. Power is fine, timer is ok, but would not engage and heat. I searched for issues since I was confused. I came back to reviews of this item with issues and a faulty fuse being common. It's absolutely true. This started happening after about a year well out of the warranty period. Now we are having someone come fix it. By the sounds of other review we could be dealing with this issue often. A $178 microwave shouldn't be breaking down after a year, avoid buying this model if possible!

    Purchased and installed by Best Buy in 1/2018.... No longer works and has to be replaced 11/2020. Shut off in the middle of cooking, and the keypad is completely dead. Flipped the breaker on and off, now it only lights up inside, then goes dead again as soon as you press a key. TOTAL GARBAGE.

    Stopped working on the year anniversary hence, no warranty, if you buy ensure additional warranty is purchased. Worked great while it lasted. The cost for parts is worth the repair.

    Had issues with the older version of this unit, broken handle, cracked plastic covers and it died even though we’ve only used it for less than two years. We’ll see how long this one lasts
