    This is a great product! Just double check the wattage as I did not and most microwaveable items need higher watts, however, I just double the time and it works great!

    I just bought this microwave and it’s absolutely adorable. The question I have is for everyone that has bought this, do you have a small hole on the upper right side of the microwave? I purchased one and when I opened it I noticed it so I exchanged the for another one and it has the same hole and the same place. I’m supposed to be there does anybody else have this? I would appreciate any answers, thank you

    The unit worked well & we liked the retro design, but we found it a bit to small for our liking and returned it for a .9 cubic foot model that better fit our needs and had a control panel that was almost identical to the old unit we were rplacing.

    It’s cute and it gets the job done, but I have issues with the fact that the moisture gets trapped in the microwave. If you heat up anything with moisture, you need to be sure to wipe it down after use.

    My daughter uses it for her dorm. Works great for hear needs. I had to get a replacement after purchase. The first one I purchased was made incorrectly and all the body parts were on wrong and the door hardly worked. Replacement is perfect.
