I would recommend this to a friendFuses blow easily!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never again! This is the second time we’ve purchased this exact unit bc it matches all our other appliances. We are two weeks from our closing date (selling our home) and it’s quit again! Will NOT be replacing this microwave again!! Fuses blow on a regular basis and it’s not due to electrical issues in the home (already hired an electrician to confirm the culprit is the microwave, not the home).

Good while it lasted but didn't last long!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good while it lasted but didn't last long! We purchased this in Feb 2020 and it just stopped working May 2021. We changed the fuses and still nothing. I see many others have the same issues. Poor design.

made cheaply
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not nearly as nice as the one I replaced. It is very flimsy and doesn't heat as well as the old one. I would not recommend buying this and I would not keep it except that it was so difficult to get it purchased and installed that I don't want to go through the hassles again, so I will just keep it until it wears out. It seems to be made cheaply and charged expensively.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDisappointed!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took a chance on an open box item that was supposed to be in excellent condition but it was far from it. The brackets to install the over the range microwave were missing and the item was damaged. I returned to the store.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOnly lasted 1.5 years.

I would recommend this to a friend Not enough power
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave is not powerful enough I should have spent more for more power.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBought May 2017, Died August, 2019
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Summary says it all. I don't expect my microwave, or any appliance, to simply quit working after two years. Since we're a retired couple and I don't cook very much, the microwave did not get heavy usage. Mostly used it to heat up frozen meals that we got from Jenny Craig. Of course the warranty is up after a year. Such shoddy manufacturing doesn't even deserve one star but I don't have the option of zero stars.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWas hopeful, but...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Made 2 cups hot water & 1 bag popcorn before it started screaming END, END! Haven't used it since. Had to unplug to turn it off
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBasic no thrills
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does what we need it to do. Basic microwave for basic use.
I would recommend this to a friendCannot read display / keypad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy - the Key Pad has very little contrast and it is hard to read with or without the kitchen lights on... The exact same microwave this replaced had a much brighter higher contrast keypad!!!
