Love the pink color

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stunning color it’s super cute. Works well, it’s smaller than majority of microwaves I have used before which is perfect for my house. I don’t have too much counter space. Power is good does the job of heating up well. The buttons and controls are easy to figure out

Cute and functional

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] She’s super cute! Pretty simple to use, standard size of a microwave. My only complaint is the low wattage, not a huge fan of below 1000W but there’s tons of options on this one.

Charming Looks With Surprisingly Modern Performanc
on November 17, 2025
Posted by: maicaq1_39
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nostalgia Retro Microwave Oven is one of those appliances that instantly elevates the vibe of your kitchen. The vintage design is adorable—rounded edges, chrome-style accents, and that classic dial give it a fun throwback look without feeling gimmicky. It’s the kind of piece people notice when they walk into the room.
Functionally, it performs better than I expected from something marketed mainly for its style. It heats evenly, handles quick meals and reheats without hot-and-cold spots, and the preset buttons are actually useful. The digital display blends nicely with the retro aesthetic, making it easy to use while keeping the old-school charm intact.
The only minor drawback is that it’s a bit smaller inside than standard microwaves, so larger plates or big casserole dishes may not fit comfortably. It’s perfect for everyday reheating, snacks, beverages, and smaller meals, but not ideal if you regularly cook for a big family.
Overall, if you want a microwave that brings personality to your countertop without sacrificing performance, the Nostalgia Retro Microwave Oven is a great pick. Cute, functional, and surprisingly dependable.

Beautiful microwave with parent friendly features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Nostalgia Retro 700W Microwave is an absolutely beautiful addition to my kitchen! The beautiful ivory color goes perfectly with the countertops in my kitchen, and it really adds a stylish touch. It comfortably fits my 4 qt mixing bowl and 10” dinner plates, so even though it has a smaller capacity there is still plenty of space to microwave almost anything I may need to, including larger dishes for my family. The 700W power is okay, but it takes a little longer to cook food due to its lower wattage. The turntable makes it certain that the food cooks evenly, and it’s incredibly quiet while running. There is an array of preprogrammed options, like popcorn and frozen vegetables, which make for an easy and convenient experience. One of my favorite features is the child lock. You can hold the stop button down and it locks out the microwave controls, which prevents accidental use. It’s really helpful as sometimes my kids like to do things by themselves even when they need some adult help! Its smooth inside makes it easy to quickly wipe down, and the turntable dish is easy to take out and quickly rinse off in the sink. It’s a beautiful, well made microwave that will get lots of use in my home!

Beautiful!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a beautiful retro style compact microwave! Very easy to clean and maintain. If functions as it should. Easy to use. Of course being a smaller microwave it takes longer because it is less watts. All in all I think that it is good for the money and convenient for size! Would definitely purchase again. Oh!!! And before I forget, I love the colors its offered in, I chose the cream.

Decent microwave
on November 14, 2025
Posted by: bethanyra6a1_8067
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a bit smaller than I realized, but it did fit nicely on my countertop next to my stove. The buttons cover pretty much anything I need, however I was not a fan of having to press end every time I wanted to open the microwave. Overall this was ok.

Pink retro style microwave
on November 13, 2025
Posted by: influenstervibe_2759
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how vintage it looks but works just like the modern models. It’s also perfect for a housewarming gift and takes up less space on the counter or anywhere else you decide to set it up at! I love the affordable price too.

The Nostalgia Retro Microwave successfully blends
on November 13, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Performance: Adequate for daily tasks. Models range from 700W (smaller capacity) to 1000W (larger 1.1 cu ft), which is generally sufficient for reheating and cooking basic microwave foods.
Some users note it may take slightly longer than higher-wattage modern microwaves, but the glass turntable helps ensure even heating.
Some users note it may take slightly longer than higher-wattage modern microwaves, but the glass turntable helps ensure even heating.
Assembly: Minimal. As a countertop unit, assembly is typically limited to unboxing and placing the glass rotating carousel inside. It's ready to use almost immediately.
Settings: User-friendly and intuitive. It features an easy-to-read LED digital display and a simple turn-and-push program dial for navigation. Most models include 12 pre-programmed cooking settings (e.g., popcorn, pizza, potatoes) and offer 5 power levels, a delay timer, and express cooking, making it straightforward to operate.
Cleaning: Manageable but sturdy. For the 1.1 cu ft model, the weight is approximately 31.9 1b, and smaller models (e.g.,
0.7 cu ft) are around 271b.
This weight helps keep the unit stable on the countertop but is still light enough to move for cleaning.
