    Bought this for our ADU so I didnt need anything super powerful or large. We had a small area and this fit just right. Its large enough with a little extra room to get a full size plate in. For a small microwave it works great and heats up food fast. The build quality feels solid and not cheap. The outside stainless steel with the black matched out tiny kitchen perfectly. The price, size and performance matched everything we needed. Im super happy with this purchase.

    the stainless steel finish looks sleek and modern. Fit well in kitchen without taking up too much counter. Easy to use control panel with preset options. The only downside is it's not as powerful as larger models.

    Love my new MW. I needed smaller than previous one. Works well, plenty of choices for type/times. Seems quality is not quite as good as they use to be...not just this produce, but products overall. Still a terrific buy for the price and my needs.

    we bought (and returned) 4 microwaves before we settled on this Insignia. It's just the right depth and width for our microwave "cubby". short cut instructions are easy to use and happy that the plate rotates the food/beverage while heating.
