Great until not

Worked great but died after a only a couple years with light use. For the price you'd anticipate this lasting several years but alas... very disappointed in the quality of the product. It died while not even in use - I went to reheat something and the touchpad was dead.

We want to help you with your microwave controls not working. We recommend performing an electronic reset by unplugging the unit for 3 to 5 minutes and plug it back in. If the issue persists, we recommend calling our warranty team at 1-833-4BODEWELL.
This microwave performs well, but the door locks and stays locked at the end of cycle. It cannot be opened by pressing the door open button - you have to press and hold two control buttons simultaneously to unlock the door. It is inconvenient and not intuitive, especially for visitors or children. Is this how all new microwaves operate or is this unique to the convection / microwave products?

We are happy to provide guidance with the door locking of this microwave. What you are experiencing is the Child Lock being enabled. Press and hold the "7” key for 3-5 seconds or until you hear a beep. Release. Press the “9” key. Release. Press the “0” key. Release. There will be two short beeps and the display will flash "UnLo" to confirm the default condition has been updated successfully.
We bought this in 2019 and it lasted maybe 4 years. We replaced it with the same product so it fit into my cabinets, it didn’t last 3 years. So disappointed. Looks great but won’t last 4 years with gentle use. Do not buy!!

Have owned for less than 3 years. Muting itself, adding 30 seconds automatically, and other buttons being “pushed” only when in use. Something wrong with the electronics. It randomly adding 30 seconds makes it virtually unusable.

I've only owned it a few years and it stopped working. It would spin when I opened the door but not when cooking. It's very pricey for kind of a basic microwave. I have a matte white dishwasher and fridge, and my built in space will only accommodate this size microwave. So, I'll have no choice but to buy another.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this appliance! It does so many things that we could use it instead of the wall oven! It’s like having a double oven!
Stopped working after 3 years. Pulling too much power and flips the breaker. Now it won’t turn on
