ChefmanCountertop Microwave Oven 0.7 Cu. Ft., 700 Watts with 10 Power Levels, 6 Cooking Presets with One-Touch Express Cook, Eco Mode, Child Safety Lock, & Mute Button - Black

I bought this microwave primarily because, after 75 years of commercial availability, the intelligence level of our society has collapsed to the point that it intersects with the mad rush to have the government regulate everything. Now, microwave ovens are required to have childproof locks on the doors—even in households and other environments that never see children. This model has the idiocracy built right into the handle, letting me trigger the childproof feature in the same step I use to open the door. It allows me to pretend we don’t live in a dystopian world ruled by bureaucrats. All the other microwave ovens I looked at use a two-step process that would only frustrate people who just want to open a darn microwave door. This model comes with a warning sticker on the door explaining how to open it. If you're a landlord or have a VRBO, you'll want to leave the sticker on because otherwise somebody is going to rip the handle off trying to get the door open, or maybe even go the nuclear option and try to pry it open with a knife. People aren't going to stand there trying to solve a microwave rubicks cube at the expense of their Hot Pocket getting cold. Even when it's for the children!I have no doubt this microwave is actually using all 700 watts of its rated power. It outcooks the 700-watt Sunbeam it replaced—the little ray of sunshine that opened either by pulling the door or pressing the huge “open” button, without any needless bureaucratic hurdles or handles standing in the way. A microwave oven from a more civilized age.My only major complaint about this microwave is that the keypad requires superhuman strength in the fingers to register that a button has been pressed. I recommend putting your shoulder into it and letting your body weight do the work to avoid getting an injury. The microwave needs to be up against a wall to use it because the force required to use the keypad will push the microwave back until there is something to stop it, and then you need to keep pushing until it beeps. And if you want, for example, to hold the "4" button down for it automatically start for 4 minutes instead of pressing 4-0-0-start, you have to maintain Herculean pressure against the 4 button for several strenuous seconds, straining to keep your knuckles from buckling like you're trying to hold an entire set of encyclopedias against the wall using only the strength from a single finger. And I mean all the encyclopedias. From A to Z. It's easier to do 4-0-0-start so frankly that feature requiring the encyclopedia maneuver is worthless. I suppose the manufacturer is trying to future-proof their microwaves against full-blown microwave tyranny, where even the buttons would have to be childproof, because frankly, these buttons already are.The microwave works well, it looks sleek, it is the proper size and noise level for it's wattage, it needs to be up against a wall, and the child-proof door opening mechanism is the best in it's class.

I’ve been using this microwave for a few weeks now, and it has exceeded my expectations. It heats food quickly and evenly, whether I’m warming up leftovers or defrosting frozen items. The controls are very intuitive — just a few buttons and I can get everything done without confusion.The design is sleek and fits perfectly on my kitchen counter without taking up too much space. I also appreciate how quiet it is compared to my old microwave. Cleaning is simple — just a quick wipe inside and it looks brand new again.Overall, this microwave has been a fantastic addition to my kitchen. Reliable, user-friendly, and stylish — highly recommended!

This microwave is very small but if you just need one to use camping, apartment, home, RV, etc. it's easy to use and comes with easy to understand instructions. It heats well and seems efficient heating drinks and food quckly and completely with no cod spots. It handles dinner plates and soup bowls with ease as long as the bowl is not too tall. Perfect for a oollege dorm,,,,,,Finally, the price is super competitive being one of the cheapest on Amazon.

So far so good

I recently purchased, It fits perfectly without taking up too much space, which is ideal. The sleek black design gives it a modern look.Despite its compact size, this microwave is surprisingly powerful and heats food quickly. I also appreciate the toddler safety open mechanism and pre programmed control buttons.If you're looking for a reliable, space-saving microwave that looks great and performs well, this is definitely a great choice. Highly recommend!

Great! We bought this for our Airbnb guests. Easy to open and store! Clear instructions, is quiet and heats food and drinks evenly and well. Control buttons are easy to use and looks cute on our countertop, not an eyesore which is important in an Airbnb! Love smelling the food cook up for hungry kiddos too!

I moved and needed a to buy a new microwave but this one doesn’t work as well as the older one that I had. It’s not very spacious inside. A tall coffee cup or dinner plate will not fit properly so read the dimensions of product first. It’s practical for cooking frozen dinners but takes longer than the directions on the package.

The media could not be loaded. This microwave was delivered exceptionally well packaged and in perfect condition. Don't let the compact size fool you, this microwave exceeded my expectations, it's got a lot of power. My family arrive home from work at different times for dinner, so we use a microwave several times a day, everyday. It heats & reheats a plate of food quickly,quietly & efficiently. I love the size, it's esthetically pleasing. There's no reason to have anything in my kitchen look like an eyesore. It was a great price & although we're all adults noone minds the child proof safety lock. An added bonus for me is when your food is done the microwave "rings" 5 times & it's easy to clean. Don't hesitate to purchase.
