    This microwave was fairly easy to install, and works just a great as any other microwave I've had. Glad I didn't spend extra to get any sort of name brand.

  • Perfect Replacement For Old Microwave

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Purchased this unit as a replacement for old Kenmore over the range microwave. It was an almost perfect fit/replacement as only two holes had to be drilled to install. Very easy installation. Like the modern design with all controls on the door and the LED lighting is bright, so is actually useful. Only CON is that there is no separate external door handle (handle is recessed on right side of door) which makes opening the door a little awkward if your holding something in your right hand to put in to cook but it's not a game changer, just have to adapt.

    The oven was easy to install. Hole patterns were a little off but not that bad. Oven works great and looks great.

    It looks so good now that it is installed. Installation was much easier than I expected. There are templates that you cut out and tape to the wall so you dont make any mistakes. The light over the stove is really bright which made my sister in law jealous. Worth it just for that.

    This gets 5 stars for looks. I have been using this microwave for about 16 months. While using it, it was opened before the time was up and it shorted out. It is now useless. I had no problems up to this point. I would probably spend more money and get a better quality product.
