    Keeps running on its own

    This is our SECOND one - identical makes and models. Had to replace the first because one day, it just turned on and kept running. I troubleshot and it worked fine for a couple days but did it all over again. Since a dozen folks use this, I wanted to keep the functions the same so bought the identical one for replacement. Two years later, SAME THING. It just runs without anyone even near it. Bought a new one today but not Insignia.

      We're truly sorry to hear that you've had a poor experience with not one, but two identical Insignia 1.1 Cu. Ft. Microwaves. It's frustrating when a product doesn't meet our expectations, especially when it's used frequently by a dozen people. We're disappointed to hear that both units experienced the same issue, and we apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment this has caused. We appreciate your loyalty and understanding in wanting to replace it with an identical model, but unfortunately, it didn't solve the problem. We're committed to doing better, and we'll take your feedback into consideration as we improve our products and services.

    Waste of Money. Bought it... didnt use it for two months, plugged it in... in less than two months we wake up to find it running with an error message 000U, turn table running all on its own unable to turn it off. No Longer returnable they say, we took too long to discover the crap it is. Manual does not provide error codes or troubleshooting - 877 number from manual went to a call center I could hear people but no one was talking to me for over 2 minutes then a guy said HI and wanted my personal information/ no acknowledgement of company answering phone or relation to Insignia/ the web site on the manual is non existent.

    The door was always difficult to open because you have to press the button exactly in the middle in order for it to open. It only worked for 5 WEEKS before it FAILED completely. Of course it can’t be returned. AVOID INSIGNIA!

    Bought this in May for $60 (on sale, retailed for $99) which I thought was a good value. Upon use in June/July, realized that the quality is not as good as other microwave in $100 range. When you close the door, you can hear a 'hollow' sound (not as heavy). Then last September it suddenly stop working.

    It does the job, but seems underpowered. If I didn't know it was 1000W I would have assumed it was a 700W based on performance. Other than having to adjust cook times, it works fine.

    Never should have bought this model; as it doesn't have a handle on the door. Button got stuck less than 2 weeks after we got it, and won't open properly. Have to pull it while pushing in the button. Had trouble with this type of door before, but never this quickly. Never buy any Microwave with a push button door! Always go Handle

    Doesnt seem to be 1.1 cu. Ft. My prior micro was a 1.0 and the inside was much bigger. It also takes longer to warm up items than my prior and they were the same watts.
