Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Fabulous little microwave! I stumbled onto an Amazon price of $64 with Prime free shipping. Wow! The micro, while rather small, can still fit my largest (11") dinner plate, with a cook cover, STACKED with a second plate and cover. Quieter than a full sized micro. 700 watts is a bit slower, however fine for reheating, and often you don't want full power anyway. I feel bad for those purchasers who must have received a lemon. That happens. I decided to purchase from Amazon because 1) by and large, microwaves are reliable, 2) $20 less than on sale locally, 3) saves the bother of going to the store and standing in lines, 4) if I did have to return to the store, more standing in line, 5) returns via UPS are easier, 6) Amazon is easier to deal with returns than most stores, 7) even if I didn't get free shipping return for a defective unit, cost would be less than the $20 above. To operate: Press the large knob; 1 minute begins. Then turn the dial up/down to add/subtract seconds. Quick and simple! This is a better system than my full sized micro. Pros: Easy to use dial. 3 beeps at the end, and then the machine is silent. Candy apple metallic red is well done. Far fewer beeps to have to endure as you set the timer. Best of all, you can add/subtract time with the dial as food is cooking, in 10 second increments. A smart design! Neutral: 12 preset modes, with +/- adjust-ability for weight of the food. I don't cook this way; you may love it. Negatives: None.
