Great for the dorm
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Fire Hazard
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Interior paint peeling creating what I believe to be a fire hazard. Obviously this is a manufacturinh defect. Likely not heat treated properly. Best Buy would not make it right as it was out of warranty. Needs to be recalled as a safety hazard. Pant breaking off where door hits and bubbling up under turntable.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm happy with the purchase. This was a gift for a friend with very little counter space and it's perfect. It takes a little longer to heat things up, but it gets the job done.
