    Honestly, its a very pretty microwave for a small apartment ! if you heat something small (like a cup of water), it will heat up really well within 30 seconds but if i take a plate of food straight from the fridge (cold) then it takes like maybe around 4-5 minutes for it to get really really hot. OVERALL, i love it ! I feel it reliable and has all the functions I need ! Its not super "luxurious" but even having a dependable one is SO good ! it doesn't have an option to mute the beeping at night but that wasn't a deal breaker for me. I feel it will last a couple of years if I take care of it.

    When I purchased this microwave I was a little concerned with the "Best Buy" Brand Insignia as I hadn't used any Insignia Brand products. I knew the first time I used it I'd be happy. I kept looking for tale tale signs of poor quality. But can't find anything. It's quiet. The latch opens the door without any glitches. All the functions on the pad work properly. And love the color and the size. Exactly, what I was looking for. Donna Martin

    Great compact microwave for college or busy family

    This Insignia Compact Microwave is amazingly better than our old Sharp Carousel microwave we had only 3 years! Since they both were 0.7ct ft, we weren't expecting anything that different since they're both compact, which we needed to fit into a small spot in our kitchen. But this new Insignia is wonderful! For it's compact size, it has a wide opening & roomy interior that is a huge welcome to our family's busy kitchen. We use our microwave to reheat & cook many items each day. The other necessity we had to have besides the compact exterior size, was a PUSH to open button, as we aren't able to use a pull open where its located. This button has a much more solid feeling when pushed to open the door & the door itself has a more solid ability to close (compared to others we tested in stores & our last Sharp brand). The sound is still a bit loud when in use, but not any different from our older ones we've had. A huge bonus from the last Carousel brand, is when it's time is up, you can stop the loud beeps instead of having them continue & with the Carousel, there was no way to stop the end beeping noise or start a new cycle until all 4 beeps stopped! It was one of our features we didn't know was important until we couldn't stop them. So it was one of the first things we tested & we all got excited over it. Overall, the strength of cooking power seems stronger even though our last one was the same output, again, it was exciting to have this little boost of power we didn't expect. Overall, we would definitely recommend this compact microwave as a great little kitchen appliance for either a college student or busy family of 4! The one disadvantage I would say are the button spots are tiny, and an older person with difficult eyesight may have trouble seeing & pushing the correct buttons. Plus, I wish manufactures would put their watts on the label inside the door, where they give you the "pre-programmed settings", as it would be helpful to remind everyone that uses it!

    Works perfectly and fits in small places. Popcorn bags will not rotate on table because of length. But full size plates large bowls are fine. Splatter covers are a bit large and will not rotate but will fit fine. Got on sale and it’s a great value!

    Works great for 700 watts. Perfect size for cooking or heating up food, and a Tasty Popcorn popper can be used in it. We got it for when we’re using our combo PowerXL microwave/Air Fryer/oven, so that all the food is hot at the same time. It’s just wide enough for our Tasty toaster to sit on top.

    I have been using this product almost for the last 2 years. This is an excellent product for home or office use. I am using it in my apartment. The overall performance is good, and you get your stuff heated within a reasonable time. In the picture, I have shown how perfectly the Mainstay dish fits in a microwave. I ordered it online from BestBuy.com and got a next-day delivery through FedEx. Everything looked okay, and I could use my microwave right away. I recommend buying this product from BestBuy.

    Great small microwave. I love how white and clean it looks. I have a tiny kitchen so it helps that it's small. So far it works beautifully. The only thing I would change is that I prefer microwaves to have a handle, versus a button you push to open it. Just personal preference; not a reason to lose a star. Of course the current design is a space-saver in a way. A little pricey for an appliance of its size, but I went for a decent brand (and the fact that it's pretty didn't hurt).

    Actually larger than anticipated for a compact. I literally bought this for heating pads for aches and occasional popcorn for movie nights upstairs. Durable, and has easy display options. I like that the open and close pad has an indent for a one finger push.
