    I bought this microwave because my big one decided to stop on me and I needed a microwave. Once you get used to having it you can’t get along without it. This one is for the price I paid. You can’t beat it. Works good every time does the job.

    This replaces the previous Insignia 1.1 cu. ft. model, which lasted about 2 years, a good amount of time for a contemporary microwave oven given my heavy use, and better than other brands I've tried. The door has been improved; it now has a handle with a latch, which looks to be much more reliable than the previous button below the control panel, a point of failure, and easier to use. This microwave works well.

    Does an excellent job at heating up your food at ease with fast heating power. The button on the door handle is a neat touch as well, as an extra measure.

    Silent button is the best feature! If anyone else has sleeping babies or just a house that is constantly running on different shifts, the silent button mean no one is woken up! It heats good evenly and pops all the popcorn in the bag without burning a single cornal. Larger compacity. Easy to clean. Quiet all around. Fits perfect on the cooking cart with toaster and conventional oven and air fryer!

    Checks all the boxes for me

    I literally read hundreds of reviews for microwaves before selecting this one. I didn't want an onerous child lock or annoying beeps. (One beep is fine.) I wanted one that was compact but could hold a good sized dinner plate. This one checked all those boxes. A plus for me was it came in black since I'm tired of stainless, and it has a white interior that seems easy to keep clean. BTW, the lift up button on the handle is no big deal, and I like the external handle instead of a wobbly button to push. This one's a winner iny book!

    Nice microwave and hope it last longer than the other insignia we had. This one is little, bigger. Seems to be better. Newer model it looks like too. We are a microwave people at where I live. Do not like to spend a lot of time in kitchen cooking. So, we like it quick and go to eat in rest of the apartment. So, it does what we expect. Just wish microwaves last longer because it seems they do not last more than 2 years. Always, just over a year only. We will see on this one.

    Works well, does what’s needed, pretty straight forward design. Only question is why they felt the need for the trigger release on the door handle. Otherwise was a good buy for the money!

    Great value option with the same power as the larger models. It's a little smaller than what my families used to but the simple door latch operation and controls make it all worth it.

    I like ease of operation. The way the door opens or that trigger handle is not my preferred method but it might last longer than the push button. It was a great price. it's a beautiful product.

    Our new Insignia microwave was a repeat purchase. New one has upgrades I like. Numbers are bigger, when cooking is done it only dings once not 3 times, the opening handle is a better way.
