Just what we were looking for

I was tired of a large microwave taking up precious counter space when all we used it for was defrosting & re-heating. This small appliance fits back into a deep corner, fits an 8x8 baking pan and our dinner plates. No frills, and we have no complaints
So far, so good. It's a very convenient small space saver microwave. I need one that is small. However, it does not heat up as fast as previous one I had. It does make a small noise when it takes off. Hope it lasts for awhile.
I bought this because it was the only one I could find which would fit on the counter space I had, which is less than 18 inches. It works fine, I like the ease of opening the door with the hand space on the side.
This is the third microwave we have had in the past three years. The first one lasted two years and the second lasted less than a year. Still, we love it. It fits nicely into a corner of our small kitchen and works perfectly. By the way, all were the same model.
I bought this microwave because I have very little counter space and needed one that wouldn't take up much space. This one fits perfectly in the corner where the counter meets the fridge. My plates and bowls fit fine. You do have to hit the 30 second button two times for each minute you want the contents to cook. However, the button is very responsive and it is not a bother. The defrost feature has worked well the few times I've used it. I use the microwave mainly for reheating, popcorn and defrosting.
This microwave is the perfect size, especially if you don't have much counter space. Fits in a corner perfectly. Is very cute and has lots of features. Love it.
