My other microwave suddenly died & had no choice but to find one online, as I got injured & could not get out to shop for several days. This was the only model that I liked the look of that also fit into the exact cabinet space we’d had custom-made for the now-dead one, so a no-brainer.It also had good reviews, so was hoping to just kind of like it. Instead, I am very very happy with it.First worry was that it has a lower wattage than my other one did, but so far, no problem or appreciable difference in the speed of cooking. This one is very used friendly (other one was never that) & took almost no time to learn the new methods and buttons. I was worried I would not like the grey interior, having always had white ones, but it, too, is so much nicer than expected, and I doubt I will ever again buy one with a white interior. It cleans so easily, and looks beautiful. I’d buy this one again in a flash!And yes, as other reviewers have said, it is not a silent one! Noisy, yes, more than my last two were, but who cares? The stove, the regular wall oven, the blender, freezer, and mixers all make noise in use. I never expect to be cooking or working in a quiet kitchen! 🙂

I canât say anything about this microwave. Itâs beautiful, works nice, quiet. We love it and are very happy with our purchase. The black stainless is a nice look with the black inside.

Much better than expected!
What a microwave!!! beautiful style inside and out, performs flawless and heats fast. 1000 watts power 1.1 CUBE size, not loud and stays in place, doesn’t slide around, nice door handle for easy opening (forget Micros with push button doors which are pain! Here’s the BIG thing, didn’t cost an arm and a leg to buy. Thanks to AMAZON BLACK FRIDAY prime!!! I recommend ordering a MW splash cover to put over turn table, keeps your Micro clean and easy to maintain!

Absolutely beautiful
We bought this for a family member and unfortunately they got it before we could get out to them so we had to return ours,( and it has a small scratch on the handle) but I do know that itâs a very nice microwave that works very well and that sheâs very happy with the ones she did get.. which is exactly to this. Easy to useâ¦ just donât like the lock feature.. no kids. But you can undo it.

For the money, not a bad little microwave!
My old microwave finally gave up the ghost after around 13-14 years of pretty decent service. I mostly warm up meals and made-for-microwave entrees, and of course the obligatory batch of popcorn from time to time. Saw this pop up and it had pretty good reviews. Plus, I’ve owned Farberware products going back decades. I still have a Farberware Percolator coffee-maker that’s probably pushing 40 now, and a small countertop convection oven that I’ve been using almost daily for 16+ years. So I’m pretty cool with the brand.It has a much smaller footprint than the old microwave, but curiously has pretty close to the same sized heating chamber for capacity. This is rated for 1000w, and it definitely warms/cooks things much faster than the old unit. I can cook a full bowl of popcorn in 3 minutes in this one, whereas it took 4:30 in the former microwave. The front panel is sleek and simple, and for most things it’ll do just fine. If you want to warm something for 5 minutes, you just push the 5 button on the pad and walk away. It takes care of the rest. However, I think it’s unusually fiddly when you want to input a very specific cook time, like 3m20s. Yes, you can do it. But you have to go through this whole process of setting the power level first, then inputting the total cook time. It’s just a bit of extra keypresses when you need a very particular cook duration.It also seems a bit noisier to my ears than the old unit. Not necessarily standing under a jet engine noisy, but it’s definitely noticeable. I got used to it within the first few days, and it’s not that big a deal since I live alone, but if you’re given to late night kitchen raids and want to avoid waking the wife and kids, this one is going to thump and hum a bit.For under $100, I have no complaints. If it holds up as long as my other Farberware items, I should be set for the rest of my days. And if not, this didn’t break the bank, so it’s all good. For the cost and the efficiency I gave it 5 stars, with the caveats about the time input and noise. If you can put up with those, it’s a great value.

does the job but has features i dont care for but im keeping it
dont like the lock button. very irritating at 1st but i got used to it. Great for big plates, warms up items really fast. The other thing i didn’t like was that the light stays on when you leave the door open.

Functional
It took me quite a long time to pick out a microwave in this class. My apartment is about 560 sq ft so I needed something smaller but at least 1000 W says it seems like most food packaging says that’s the requirement. This is working really well for me so far and heated a burrito at the same time as it said the heat and an 1100 W microwave. I’ve been testing it with a variety of items over the past week and it seems like so far it’s all working well. I also read the manual completely before using. It says to clean it but doesn’t say how to clean it so I wiped it out with a damp cloth and then checked the manufacturer website for their cleaning instructions which was to I microwave a bowl of water for three minutes and then let it sit for five. And then I wiped the steam down again. I’m really liking this little microwave so far. I’ve been saving the box in case I need to return it but so far it’s fine. The instruction booklet also says that the first time you use it it can smoke a little bit that’s normal and then you might smell something from the electronics a bit the next few times which means the circuit boards are curing. I didn’t experience any of that but I did make sure that the first time I used it I supervised it. I don’t do anything super complicated in the microwave, just heating up frozen healthy meals when I’m in a hurry, vegetables, heating coffee, etc. So far this is perfect for my needs. Fingers crossed this continues and it doesn’t crap out in three months. Will try to remember to update this if it does
