    Great replacement microwave oven! Bigger than my previous one which is what I wanted. Features as advertised and outstanding. Heats up super fast and is a great replacement for an antiquated microwave.

    Would have given 5 stars except there is a feature my previous microwave had that this one does not: a REMINDER BEEP. It beeps 5 times when done and that's it. I've had the unit about 3-4 weeks and already have forgotten items in it 4-5 times. The previous microwave beeped 4 times when done and after 2-3 minutes of the door not opening to get the item out it would beep 3 times which would continue until the forgotten item was removed. This new unit does not have that feature and had I known before purchase (read description better or written the vendor) I most likely would have gone with my previous vendor. That "reminder feature" is a *valuable feature* to me and has caused me to forget items I'm heating up and even losing my coffee cup until I finally look inside the microwave. Too bad because it's a beautiful unit, very well made, Durability is great, looks fantastic, light inside could be a little brighter but I can deal with that, and ease of use is great - just read the instructions and you're good to go!

    EDIT 12/25/2024: Rating reduced from 5 stars to 1. It would be zero if I could. The unit arrived in a day and there was zero damage to the box. The unit also had no visible damage to the cabinet or the power cord. But it was electrically dead right out of the box. I read the manual and followed the instructions which were few and simple. The display would not light up. The control panel was completely unresponsive. I plugged it into several outlets proven to be working with other appliances. Nothing. It's just dead. Back it goes. Already processed the return.

    It's disappointing. I'd expect at least minimal quality control like plugging the units in to see if they'll at least power up and the lights come on before they're shipped out to retailers. Apparently that didn't happen.

    ORIGINAL REVIEW:
    Just for clarity since their are multiple versions in this product listing, I bought the 1.3 cu ft, 1000W version with the stainless steel finish and the curved door handle.

    A microwave is pretty much like a coffee pot or a toaster oven to me. We use it 99% of the time to.....
    1.) Heat up coffee or tea.
    2.) Defrost frozen stuff.
    3.) Reheat leftovers.
    4.) Make popcorn.

    So the question becomes can it do the basics with an easy to use control interface and is it durable / reliable. The answer in this case is yes.

    This is a direct replacement for the exact same Farberware branded microwave I bought 7 years ago for the exact same price. The only difference is that the original one was black and this one has a stainless steel finish. The styling and control interface is identical except for a couple of feature additions in the new one. But as an offset, the old one had an output of 1100W and this one is rated at 1000W. No big deal.

    The physical size both inside and outside are identical. That's critical for me as this thing has to fit in a built in cubby / garage over the counter. And this is the largest unit that will fit I've ever found. As for the inside, it will fit a large dinner plate. Good enough.

    As for the control interface, there is a zero learning curve as it's almost identical to the one it's replacing. It has the basics covered.....
    1.) Time cook.
    2.) Time defrost.
    3.) Weight defrost.
    4.) Power level adjustment
    5.) 5 presets for popcorn, pizza, dinner plate, potato, frozen veggies, and beverages.
    6.) One touch cook time from 1-6 min. The old one was 1-3 min.
    7.) 30 second one touch add by pressing the start button again.

    It's obvious that they put some thought into the interface to make it really easy to do what microwaves are used for 99% of the time. If you need to read the manual to use this, well... you need help. LOL, it's that easy.

    As for value, the original black one cost me the exact same $135 in March 2018. It's not dead. It still heats fine. But the timer / clock display flips out intermittently then comes back to life randomly before failing again. Just annoying. And the inside has seen enough wear that its not possible to get it really clean looking any longer. But hey, this thing gets used probably 10 times daily by 4 people on average.

    And at $135 the original lasted 7 years. That's about $19/year or $1.60/month. I'm OK with replacing it with a newer version at this point. I got good value out of it.

    Hopes this helps anyone trying to make a decision.

    It's Beautiful! Family is quite impressed how the inside color makes the microwave look really clean.

    So the clock was hard to set, took many tries, but got it in the end. the buttons don't work easily so theres not making mistakes. I learned to use 'Time Cook' and Power to change cooking power level so items won't boil over. I've used the 30-second cook button which worked great. I usually use that after I've cooked with power level down, to make sure something is cooked.

    It's ok, honestly I would give it 3.5 stars if I could. It does the job, but it's not very powerful, so it takes longer to heat up the food. And it doesn't have the option to make it so it doesn't beep, which most microwaves actually do. The size isn't a problem for us, dinner plates fit in it, I don't ever really have a need for anything bigger. But I do wish I had spent a little more and gotten a slightly better one, even though money is tight.

    I needed a replacement for my small microwave, and this one is perfect. Smaller than I measured using the listed dimensions, which is great.

    Quick cook 1-6 minute option. 30 seconds is available too..
    Blue display is eye appealing.
    Most of the models that when you pull the door open you have to hold it in place to brace it from sliding forward when you pull the door open. This one opens easy without having to do that.
    Inside cooking space is more than adequate...
    It's an attractive appearance and the display is easy to see.
    The one thing is that you need to press time-cook before entering the cooking time if you don't use quick cook...
