Great Farberware Microwave
This microwave is 12â high x 20 1/2â long. It fits nicely on the shelf of my bakerâs rack. You have Smart Sensor buttons ranging from popcorn, frozen pizza, meat defrost, and much more. You can also just hit the start button once for 30 seconds, twice for a minute, etc. Reading the pamphlet is easy, everything is very clearly marked. We use it mostly for heating up frozen foods or warming leftovers, but itâs built to do much more. There are more power levels than I will ever need and it works very quickly. What I love about it is the look. The white framing on the door gives it a classy look. Great addition to our home!

Simple to operate. Solid materials
I bought this Farberware microwave in July 2022 to replace our Magic Chef that finally gave out. It has worked flawlessly for over two years now. I would put the quality up there with our old Panasonic that lasted eight years (that only died because our son cooked something for 40 minutes instead of 4 minutes).I wasn’t sure about the brand but did some research and decided to risk it. I’m glad I did.The only, minor, complaint I have is that occasionally the right side buzzes during operation. That’s usually resolved by pressing my hand against the side for a moment.It still looks great and there hasn’t been any wear or cracking of the buttons as is common with this type of control panel.

Dangerously imperfect technology
UPDATE: The grill function shorted out exactly 2 years after I got it, burning out a ground fault interrupter in the process. The electricianâs bill was higher than the price of the oven. Good thing I had a gfi! When I removed it from the counter, I also discovered the mess in the photo. The oven is too heavy to move regularly to clean, although I did wipe up the counter under the edge of the door fairly often and wondered where the stuff I wiped was coming from. I bought it mostly to avoid having both a toaster oven and a microwave on my counter. It made halfway decent light toast from a frozen slice, although that took 11 minutes, and the Combi setting was helpful for crisping the edges of pie crust on reheated quiche. (Both of those things can be done better and faster by an air fryer that I bought more recently. An air fryer is just a convection oven with a small footprint – who knew?) The interior light never worked. BOTTOM LINE: having tried two combinations ovens from two different manufacturers, I conclude that combining a microwave with an oven function is a technology not yet perfected. At least the price of this one wasnât as high as the first one!ORIGINAL POSTI just got this, replacing a convection microwave whose heating element died. It was a great price, under $100 – I donât know whether that will remain in effect. Controls are much simpler than the convection/microwave unit, which was ridiculously complicated. I havenât tried to clean it, but it looks ordinary. The four stars reflect a very minimal interior light and, especially, a really inadequate manual, especially concerning the grill. I want to toast bread – my old oven took 10 minutes to defrost and just barely crisp a slice of frozen bread on grill feature, with no browning. This oven has a Grill setting and 2 Combi grill and microwave functions. No information about how to use the Combi settings or how they differ.Fairly extensive online research suggests preheating the grill for 1 minute. The grill and oven definitely get hot, leading to risk of skin burns (!) if you touch the interior or the metal grill after using the Grill feature. Grilling a slice of frozen bread without preheating is slower than a toaster would be. The combo alternates microwave with grill function (both the sound and the lighted icons indicate this), but the bread is tough and not yet browned. There appear to be 2 levels of Combi, but I have no idea why.TOAST TEST: good news! When I Grill a frozen piece of bread for 8 minutes, the top is slightly crisp and the bottom is moist like fresh bread. After 12 minutes, the top (facing the roof, where there is an oven-type element) is slightly brown. Perfect light toast color and crunch. The underside is slightly crisp although not brown. Flipping mid-cycle may result in equal sides but I havenât tried that. CAUTION: Use tongs or risk serious burns.Combi is not useful, overcooks the bread in the center and leaves it tough. Itâs probably great for thawing and âbrowningâ a frozen pizza or casserole. I have not seen evidence that the metal grill rack gets hot enough to leave marks on the food – maybe with more time.

Stylish with great functionality.
Very pleased with my new Farberware microwave in terms of both style and functionality. So far, having only had it for one day Iâve just use it for heating leftovers and it performed as expected and hoped for. I look forward to utilizing and optimizing all its features as soon as possible.

The controls are easy to see. However, the door is difficult to open and close, and the excessive resistance makes it noisy. So it’s hard not to disturb anyone who is sleeping nearby. The beeps are noisy too, but they stop when you open the door.

Works well but it is very loud and noisy. Plus the internal spin turntable doesnât fit exactly so it too rattles. A 6/10

This is the best microwave Iâve ever owned. Iâve bought a couple through the years. When my first one died after it had done its time, I bought another one to replace it. It actually defrosts well and cooks food evenly. The only thing I donât like is after several years of use the plastic coating on the key pad starts to lift.
