    Small microwave fits the space I have. It takes a little longer to heat things through but it works well once you have figured out the timing.

    Being smaller with leas wattage than our previos unit., it does take a little more time to heat things up. However, it has performed well and adds a nice bit of color to our kitchen.

    Beautiful retro designs, what else can I say, it’s a microwave, it does what it’s supposed to do while looking amazing on the counter. If I was to complain about something it would be the small window but it’s part of the retro look.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts! The retro design sounds fantastic, and it's great to hear that the microwave is performing well. The small window might be a bit of a trade-off for that stylish look, but it sounds like it's worth it. If you have any other insights or tips about using it, we'd love to hear them!
