Stopped working two weeks after warranty expired
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Two weeks after the one year warranty expired, it stopped working. They said it is most likely the magnetron. $175 to come out and look at it and replace the magnetron, even though the part is covered under warranty. Don’t buy this product.
