    So far so good. The problem with all of these over the range microwaves is that it is just a matter of time before the moisture takes it's toll and it dies. If we get 2-3 years we are happy.

    I have owned this model for exactly 10 days and a few minutes ago, it started making a buzzing sound out of nowhere while simultaneously the display screen blinked randomly. I tried unplugging it for a few minutes and plugging it back to attempt to resolve the issue but that has failed. I’m heading to the store as soon as they open tomorrow morning and hopefully I can exchange this piece of junk.

    The microwave works great, no problems there. The installation was a real pain, partly due to my house set up, and partly due to instructions. I made multiple trips to the hardware store for tools I didn't have just to put this up. Next time, I'll hire someone.
