1.6 cu. ft. Countertop Microwave with Stainless Door

When it was delivered, whom ever dropped it off, on my front steps, by whom I suspect it was "FedEx" dropped it off at 1:00 pm in the afternoon, I assume, BEFORE IT STARTED RAINING!! (Thinking back now, I wish I would have checked, my surveillance cameras, so I would actually know, if it was raining, or not when it they dropped it off) but I didn't get home, until 4:00 pm the same day, and of course, the box wasn't covered with a bag or anything. You know because, it was only a little over $100.oo for this microwave, so no need to worry about springing for like a .10 cent garbage bag, if its raining, or looks like it might start to rain, right!! :( I was sure it was ruined, so I was going through the process of returning it, when, a few nights latter, I got to looking at the box, and I noticed though, one of the holes for the handle on the box, there was an internal plastic bag, around the microwave its self. (And I was already having all kinds of issues with, my back, so I really! didn't want to wrestle the thing, into my truck and back to the nearest FedEx store) I was extremely skeptical, weather the microwave was any good or not, considering how saturated the box was. But I thought it would be worth at least trying to see if it was okay, if it could possibly, get me out of having to take it back to FedEx, so I got my brother to get it out and it works great, I really like it. It looked so similar to our old microwave, (Which none of us liked to use, "us being, my mom, my brother, and my self") but I really like it, our old one which can't be much more then 3 or 4 years old, the internal light, only came on, while the microwave was running, it wouldn't turn on when you opened the door!! I've never even heard of that!! And you could only set the timer on the old microwave, for a maximum of 59 minutes and 99 seconds. Has anyone ever heard of this? On every microwave I've ever operated, in my lifetime, (and I'm "43 years old" but none the wiser" ;) LOL ) whenever you opened the door, the light inside, automatically turned on, so I assume so you could see, what you were doing, when you were getting, your container, of food situated in your microwave. But any way very happy with the product!! All the things that annoyed me, and my family about the old microwave, wasn't an issue with this one!! 3 Thumbs up!! :) Sorry didn't mean for this review to be so wordy!!

Just the right balance of size, features, ease of use, appearance, and value for a countertop unit.

This brand is long lasting and durable if cared for, cleaned etc...and simple to use. Cost effective and handy.

Went store shopping to replace our dead microwave . . . truly didn't find anything we liked. Went on line and store shopped . . . still didn't like anything for the price we were looking for. Came across this one on AMAZON and it fit all our needs, size was perfect and price was right. If I HAD to find one negative it would be the sound. Not to loud just an odd buzz instead of a hum. Noise is not a deal breaker . . . Love it !

this is real similar to my sears microwave, which died after 8 years. best thing is no steam sensor. cooks great and is easy to program meals.

When my microwave gave up on me, I ordered this replacement because the size, color and wattage were just what I needed. It was delivered on time, easy to unpackage and plug in. I am pleased with the new oven, and the light is much brighter than I have had before. Nice to be able to see so clearly just be opening the door. My last oven did not light up until it was cooking. The lighting makes cleaning easier, and easier to see food while it is cooking. Especially helpful when popping corn in my popper as the timing sometimes differs.

Love it.

It seems that 1000 watts is not the same for all microwave ovens. We recently lost a Cuisinart (they tend to break down faster than most; at least that is our experience) that was also 1000 watts. But even when the Cuisinart stopped working at its full 1000-watt power it still cooked whatever we put in there a lot faster than this "weak" Magic Chef. Not a major deal once we recalculated and adjusted for the difference, but just the same. Our major gripe though is the wobbly and somewhat unstable turntable tray. If we place something light on it the noise is not too bad, but anything heavy, like a bowl full of soup, etc. and it is quite noisy. (Actually, overall, this machine is very noisy.) We are also concerned that a container that was not itself stable might tip over. It is also noisy when you open and close the door. In order to not wake up others in the house whoever is using the microwave just needs to be gentle when opening or closing the door. I actually give this 2.5 (I had a 3 before) because it is usable, and because finding a dependable, solid white microwave is difficult. But when this one dies (soon since not everyone in this house is gentle when using that door) we will buy a different brand. UPDATE 4/28/19. We have changed the rating to 1. This is a fire hazard or explosion waiting to happen. Until recently we had not used the microwave for more than a few minutes at a time. But recently we nuked an item that required more than 3 minutes of cook time. The outside of the microwave oven got quite hot! Also, this was noticed from the beginning, this microwave oven does not do a good job of venting out steam/heat when cooking food. So steam builds up inside, making it impossible to see what is cooking. But a microwave oven should not get that hot on the outside of the unit, regardless. We are afraid to use this unit because of the heat buildup, and now do not even trust it for use of less than 3 minutes.

I had the previous version of this, twice. Each one lasted about 6 years, which I guess is the most you can expect from products made nowadays. Yes, it's made in China, but so are the Panasonic ones that cost almost twice as much. It' solidly made, with solid performance, at least so far. If it lasts another 6 years, I will be happy.

I prefer to use grams instead of ounces, but it cannot be set up this way.Otherwise I am fully satisfied with the product.

This product is a perfect size for counter. Lots of watts for cooking. color black and white is outstanding. Heats up food extremely fast. The touch screen buttons are very sensitive & I would highly recommend this product for a family.

Nothing more to say, it arrived I use it and life is grand. It's more powerful than my old one and that's great!

Works nicely.UPDATE: Burnt a spot on a damp towel. Multiple times now seeing its "firepower" concentrated on relatively small areas in the oven. It is not cooking evenly. Hope this is a one-off problem. I like this size/price. The door seems to have a gap or space for microwaves to leak.
