    Easy to install, looks great and has a lot of functions I was looking for in a microwave. It's a replacement for our microwave in our RV. The measurements are exactly the same as our old Furrion RV microwave.

    Looked nice and worked fine. Within 18 months, with only infrequent usage, microwave door developed a small crack. Unrelatedly, the door handle came off. It turns out it had been glued on. Poor construction. Poor value. Since it came with a one year warranty and it's been 18 months, I'm out of luck. Would absolutely not buy again.

    Only lasted 2 years before the handle broke off. I have never had any appliance break that soon. The GE microwave prior to this one lasted over 9 years before needing to be replaced. The cliche holds true - you get what you pay for.

    Exceptional Performance and Value – Insignia Over

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

    I recently purchased an open-box Insignia Over the Range Microwave from my local Best Buy store, and I am absolutely thrilled with my purchase. Not only did I get a fantastic deal on this microwave, but it has exceeded my expectations in terms of performance and features. Unbeatable Value: Let's start with the price. The open-box deal at Best Buy was too good to pass up. I was initially hesitant about buying an open-box item, but it looked brand new and came with all the original accessories and packaging. The savings were substantial, and I got a high-quality microwave for a fraction of the price. Sleek Design: The Insignia microwave has a modern and sleek design that complements any kitchen decor. Its stainless steel finish gives it a premium look and feel, making it a stylish addition to my kitchen. Spacious Interior: The microwave's spacious interior is perfect for accommodating large dishes and cookware. Whether I'm reheating leftovers or preparing a family-sized meal, this microwave can handle it all. The turntable rotates smoothly, ensuring even heating of my food. Powerful Cooking Performance: This microwave boasts a powerful 1000 watts of cooking power, which means it can quickly and evenly heat food. I've found that it reduces cooking time significantly compared to my old microwave. Whether I'm defrosting, cooking, or reheating, the Insignia microwave delivers consistent results every time. Convenient Features: One of the standout features of this microwave is its array of convenient cooking presets. From popcorn to baked potatoes and even a "quick minute" button for one-touch heating, it has made my cooking experience much more efficient. The touchpad controls are easy to use and responsive. Exhaust Fan and Light: The built-in exhaust fan and light are incredibly handy. They effectively remove cooking odors and provide additional illumination over my stove. It's a two-in-one feature that I appreciate every time I cook. Quiet Operation: This microwave operates quietly, which is a pleasant surprise. It doesn't disrupt conversations or add unnecessary noise to the kitchen environment. Easy Installation: Installing the Insignia microwave was a breeze, thanks to the detailed instructions provided. Best Buy's installation service was also an option, but I found that it was straightforward enough to do it myself. Reliability: Having used this microwave for several months now, I can confidently say that it has been reliable and durable. It continues to perform flawlessly, day in and day out. In conclusion, my open-box Insignia Over the Range Microwave from Best Buy has been a fantastic addition to my kitchen. It combines exceptional value, sleek design, powerful performance, and convenient features all in one package. If you're in the market for a reliable and affordable over-the-range microwave, I highly recommend giving the Insignia model a try. I couldn't be happier with my purchase, and I'm sure you won't be disappointed either. Best Buy and Insignia have truly delivered on this product.

    Great microwave, easy installation.

    Microwave works great and has a lot of different cooking functions. Installation was easy and straight forward and can be done by 1 person. The only issue that occurred was that one of the self adjusting nuts on the top managed to get loose and actually fall in the casing. It seems that the metal around the self adjusting nuts should have been from a slightly higher quality.

    I think the delivery and install was great. Fast delivery. But after using the microwave, I am not a fan of the fan turning on while in use. It is extremely loud. It does look nice but I do not like the noise. We don't use it too much so it's pretty much for show. Other than that, decent microwave for the price.

    Its a decent microwave but doesnt have express cooking time, so you actually have to press 1-0-0 instead of just 1. The keypad film is already wearing off with less than a month use. Doesnt seem like its a big deal but it gets annoying on daily use. It does have lots of room and seems to cook food evenly.

      ​Hi, Thanks for the feedback. For the keypad film wearing off, It is package protecting film. You can peel off and remove the film.

    Finally replaced my vent with a microwave, yaaayyy!! I like it, it looks good. I trust this brand...just getting used to pressing the "buttons" so they activate the first time. The "buttons" aren't as sensitive as my previous counter top mode. Fan seems loud - getting used to it.
