Not bad for the money
 
Review Date: October 1, 2008
Reviewer: Sam-I-Am,
I've had this microwave for about 9 months now. It's quite powerful, doesn't take up too much counter space, and has a decent (albeit not great) look to it. [...]I would agree with the other reviewer about some of its design flaws, namely, the light doesn't come on when you open the door (the light is on only when cooking), and the dial method of entering the time is a bit unconventional, but you do get used to it. If you're looking for a powerful microwave but don't want to spend a fortune, this is a good option if you don't mind its few quirks.
Great microwave for the price!!

You can't really beat this microwave for the price. As you may have noticed, a couple of other reviewers have mentioned a few so called "design flaws" but in my opinion those are easy to get used to. While I agree that this isn't the perfect microwave, I haven't experienced anything that justifies lowering the rating below 4 stars (especially considering the price to performance ratio). Let it be known that while I respectfully disagree with rating this product less than 4 stars, the content of the other reviews so far has been accurate.

Anyone in need of a large, powerful, inexpensive (but not "cheap quality") microwave should consider this model.
A good mid-sized microwave

Reviewer: Troy, Minnesota, USA
Pros:
-Has an inverter
-Good amount of power (1300 watts) for its size
-Moisture sensor for auto-reheat/auto-cook
-Aesthetically, I like the colors and look of the microwave

Cons:
-Time display is difficult to see at sharp to semi-sharp angles (although, I don't think it's a big deal)
-I think that no light comes on in the microwave when it's open (again, not really a big deal for myself, since I usually have the kitchen light on, and if I really want to see the item I'm microwaving, I always have just taken the item out of the microwave for inspection, anyway)

Overall, I really like this microwave, especially how powerful it is, which is not always easy to find in mid-sized microwaves. Also, it's not extremely easy to find an inverter in a mid-sized microwave, either.
A potent microwave

I don't know what wattage this one replaced, but it heats food noticeably faster, and a good deal more consistently than our last one.

Having used it for a month now, I like the spinner to select time. I thought I'd prefer digital entry, but the spinner is pretty responsive to how fast you turn it.
Great unit
