Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the ease of use, attractive price, and appealing appearance of the 1.6 cu. ft. Over-the-Range Microwave. Many appreciate its size and performance, along with the straightforward installation process. However, some users mention challenges with the button responsiveness and the noise level of the fan. A few also note the dimness of the interior light.

    Once I found the time to read the product reviews, I realized that for the same price I could have gotten (from Best Buy) one of Consumer Reports top three rated microwaves. Returned this one for #2, and I'm guessing I will have the opportunity to review it soon.
