    The microwave suddenly turned on by itself. Now whenever it is plugged in it turns on and wont turn off. Safety hazard.

    I bought this as a backup unit the middle of February. Never used it until last week. It never worked like it should and now it does nothing. The return period is passed and I can't return it. No one at the Best Buy near me will answer the phone. I sent in an email last week but again, no response.

    I liked this at first, especially the ability to shut off chimes and button beeps, but now less than 2 months after purchasing this it is making noises in the turntable, screeching and stumbling it's way as it turns, and of course now it is not returnable! So stay away it's a waste of money and time.

    DO NOT BUY!! The door switch broke and now the microwave will start and stop at random. Very suspicious that it broke just after the one year warranty expired. Buy another brand, not this one.

    Broken after 1 year and 4 months. Randomly turns itself on and off over and over again when it's plugged in. I see lots of reviews on here with the same issue. Guess I'll be buying a new microwave for Christmas.

    Used it occasionally as we have a main microwave that we use regularly. This lasted less than 18 months. Now it doesn’t heat and doesn’t stop when plugged in. None of the buttons work. Pretty disappointed. Better to buy a good brand than Best Buy brand.
