My opinion.
on January 25, 2025
Posted by: Gary
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am disappointed that when the end of cooking alarm sounds you can't hear it. I have it set on high(3) and unless you are standing by the stove you can't hear it. Needs to be much louder. Additional when setting cooking time you can only enter minutes -- no seconds. You also have enter 1 more minute that you want, i.e., if you want to time for 5 minutes you must enter 6 because went you press start it resets timer to one minute less than you entered.

Owners Manual
on April 21, 2025
Posted by: Marc
It would really be helpful to have an owner's manual, but I can't seem to find one to download and the distributor didn't include one with the installation.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent microwave.
on May 13, 2025
Posted by: Cathy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This microwave heats quickly and evenly. No hot spots. I have been using a cover over the plates as recommended and it makes a big difference in heating evenly and controlling splatter.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Microwave Timer Loudness
on May 22, 2025
Posted by: Marc
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The loudness control is insufficient. One must stand in front of the microwave to hear it, even when it is set to loud. Secondly, the selection panel should be backlit so it can be viewed more easily. Perhaps a back light could come on when the panel is touched.
I would recommend this to a friend!
