Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the compact size, retro design, and appealing color of this microwave. Many appreciate its ease of use and stylish appearance, while some find the controls somewhat confusing and the power a bit lower than expected. Positive feedback also highlights its performance and price. A small number of users noted an unpleasant smell upon initial use.

    Our old counter top stopped working so we needed a replacement, my wife found the Insignia on sale and available at our local BB. At first everything went well, not as strong as our previous microwave, but I knew that prior to purchase. One morning the microwave was showing 5 seconds on the screen, so I cleared it and walked off. A few minutes later the 5 seconds was right back on so I just hit the run button to clear out the time. As soon as I hit the button, sparks started popping from the back right corner (there is a vent or something there). There was NOTHING in the microwave, no old food, no foil, nothing. I tried it again and same thing, sparks popping and smoke. I called BB and they said it was too late to return (I had it for a month) but I could bring it in and they would repair it or exchange it. I did not want the same microwave so we just bought a different brand. I have video but there is no place to post. Beware when using.

    The BESTBUY brand Retro microwave functions perfectly well like every other typical microwave should. However, if you wish to "use" all of its built-in preset features, then you shouldn't have thrown away the manual, and you must read what each does. I would recommend it. Good luck & enjoy a Retro from the 60s :) :) :)
