this was a housewarming gift that we've had for over a year now, no real complaints. just right for our small space, and powerful too. i use it for reheating leftovers, "baking" potatoes, heating up canned veg, hot chocolate or tea, you name it. a standard size popcorn bag is a little too big (before it inflates it will get wedged so it doesn't move & the popcorn burns) but we switched to the smaller individual size bags which works fine & works out better for us anyway. no issues with anything else size-wise - fits our standard size IKEA dinner plates just right. the small interior does get quite steamy inside, but that just makes it really easy to wipe down if you heat anything that spatters.
i knocked one star off for the beeping. i wish all appliances had the option to turn sounds off. the beep it makes when you press a button is fine, and one of the features i really like is that you can just press "1" for one minute, "2" for two minutes, and so on, which saves you from having to press "time cook", entering the time, and pressing start. but if you don't catch it before it reaches zero, the "done" beeps are pretty obnoxious. SIX loud, long beeps, and pressing cancel won't stop them. the timer function is useful but the beeps have a mind of their own. sometimes it beeps once, sometimes a few, sometimes six, sometimes short beeps, sometimes a beep so long you think about unplugging it, sometimes i think it's attempting morse code. sometimes if you press a button to cook something, it continues this long beep several seconds after the microwave has started running.
were it not for that, this would definitely be a five star microwave. it was exactly the size we needed to fit a tight space, it's white, the design is simple. it cooks well and fast, and has all the features we like - clock, timer, baked potato, popcorn, easy one button pushing for whole minute cook times. and the price was right!
I would recommend this to a friend!
