    I love this microwave! Not only is it attrative, but it is HUGE and very modern in it's technological capabilities! It takes the guess work out of microwave cooking. I love the option where you can simply press sensor cook, choose the type of food you are cooking (like a beverage or fresh veggies) and the microwave will figure it out for you! It has a similar reheat option too. I never have to stick my leftovers back in to heat longer.... it always comes out perfect the first time!

    This is a great microwave oven! Replaces an awful oven we were using that did not have a carousel but a glass plate that moved side to side. This oven is huge - can accommodate any meal you want to prepare! Also it cooks EVENLY. No cold spots cooking frozen pizza. Defrosting using the Inverter setting was very even and did not overheat the food that it started to cook it. Took a few minutes to get used to the controls (dial to set timer). All in all I highly recommend this model if anything for the even cooking.

    Wasn't sure if I was going to be able to get used to the lack of "number" buttons. The turn dial to select how long you want to cook was definitely a concern. Second time I went to use it, I didn't even think about it, I just turned the dial. Guess it took no time at all to adjust to this "different" way of time selection. The extra large size works exceptionally well for us. Clean look, and efficient. How much can someone say about a microwave that works well and does what it is supposed to do? We like it because it does all we expect it to do.

    Any other microwave we have owned was noisy. The magnetron would kick on and off. This microwave does not do this and it seems to work faster. I highly recommend it!

    I'm very pleased with this microwave oven. It has the same external dimensions as my old unit but is much larger inside and is lighter weight too. It's powerful and very easy to operate. I'm very pleased !

    This is much bigger than our old microwave and much more quiet. Setting the time with the dial is speedy and it can pop some corn.

    Good Counter Top Microwave

    |

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We learned that countertop microwaves are replaced on average every 7 years. We found we needed to replace ours. We shopped extensively, and liked this one due to the size of the oven, progamability (set a defrost and then a cook time and power), and due to the dial timer/cooking control. The dial takes some time to learn to use efficiently since it senses the acceleration of the spinning dial and adjust the time based on this as well. But we can simply put something in the over and turn the microwave on - without even programming it we want. Overall - it is fairly full featured and a good value at Best Buy.
