Not Quite as Expected
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was installed with TotalTech. This replaced another and had same issue of hot spots and cold. You can't set food in middle or you will end up with frost in part and hot in another. Set on side it does better but still frost on some. You have run again. The manual said wait 5 min for micro to cool between uses but that did not work either. Sent back. Thank you TotalTech!

Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave arrived with installers. Installers opened box to discover microwave scratched in multiple areas. Refused microwave as installers suggested. Installers have not returned with replacement therefore: This serves as notice to cancel this order in its entirety and refund the full amount paid on my visa credit card for the microwave, installers fee and all taxes.
