  • Online Dimensions Are Incorrect

    This review is more about the incorrect dimensions of the microwave that Best Buy has on their website than the microwave itself. We upgraded our cabinets from 12" depth to 15" depth. We needed a microwave at least 17 inches deep to allow for venting from the front. The dimensions in the specifications as well as the picture online are: 17 3/4" deep, 29 15/16" wide, and 16 7/16" high. The actual and printed on the box that we received are: 15.6" deep, 29.9" wide, and 16.5" high. Since they did not have one on display, we bought this sight unseen trusting the info on the Best Buy website. We will be returning it and will have to find an alternative that likely won't be from Best Buy. Just sharing so others don't make a similar mistake.

    Glad to have purchased this stainless steel microwave at a nice price point. The only thing that I would change is to have the option to have a brighter LED light under the microwave.

    I didn’t have high hopes for this microwave. But it was cheap and in my budget. Installation was super easy and works just as good as the bigger name brands. I am happy with my purchase.

    Solid microwave. I’ve been needing to replace my over the stove model for about a year. Chose this because of value and price since I probably use an air fryer more than a microwave. Does the job well. Heats fast and evenly. Best deal for the quality and price.
