Works great!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works really great and i love that it doesnt have the obnoxious "foods done" beep. It even has a reminder every 2 mins until u open it to get ur food out. The only thing i hate is the time shines SUPER bright. Im in a small space and that display is practically a night light. I wish i could dim it. Id give 5 stars if that light wasnt so darn bright.

Good price, works for what I need
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The size is good for my limited space and I don't really cook in it. Just reheat and melt ingredients for cooking. I was going to buy a more expensive one, but they were out of stock. I thought I'd take a chance and buy the store brand. I've had two not-very-old higher end models die on me in 2 years, not in warranty. This way, there's not a large investment. Microwaves are not built like they used to. It does what I need. The way it opens, pushing a lever, is taking me time to get used to after years of a different system.

Handle easy to open!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is our second Insignia MW this size. I was worried the handle and its 'trigger' would be hard to open. Not at all! Just squeeze slightly at the top while you open and there you go. Other features I like that we also liked in the old one include: heavy enough to stay steady when you open and close door, and push buttons. Easy to use cook time or 30 sec. Also easy to use timer. Cooks dandy. Good size interior: fits a dinner plate easily, along with most ice cream containers. Also want to give kudos to the box designers! There are handles on the side, making it easy to tote home.
