Countertop Microwave Oven, 1.2 Cu.Ft, 1000W, Black

Just got this microwave when our above-range microwave quit. The size is good for our countertop. Before ordering, I marked off the 16" x 20.6" footprint to be sure it was not too big. The inside and turntable are just large enough for a full-size dinner plate, so I wouldn't want to get anything smaller. I never use the fancy programming; I just do timed cooking at high-power almost exclusively. So for that, this microwave is great and easy to use. It seems to heat things a bit faster than the Kenmore Elite microwave that gave out on us. It has a nice appearance in our kitchen. You can turn off the bell/beep, which I appreciate. My only criticism is it is louder than our other microwave -- noise that seems to be from the outer metal casing maybe -- but it's not so bad that I wouldn't buy this one again. All in all, it's a very good microwave and a super value. Minus 1/2 star for noise, rounded up to 5 stars. Now we need to figure out what to do with our dead above-range microwave.

I am extremely happy with this purchase. I eat a lot of rice based dishes and live alone. Therefor, I often eat reheated leftovers. This microwave's rice cooking sensor mode and reheat censor modes working wonderfully well. I was very impressed by them. The microwave cooks perfect white rice every time. I had a very old microwave (from the early 1990's) that lacked this kind of functionality. Had I know about it, I would have replaced my old microwave much sooner! I find the system easy to use. The system looks very nice and has a high quality construction. I also liked that this microwave was 1000W rather than 1200W. Most cook times on frozen meals and recipes are based on 1000W and 1000W is less likely to trip a kitchen breaker. This microwave is a great value for the money. I would absolutely purchase it again.

Works great so far, very happy with it. Nice looking unit in the kitchen!! Price was pretty reasonable thank .

This was a great microwave. It lasted me from March 2019 till December 2025. All of the great things that others say about it are true and I could find absolutely nothing negative about it's operation. That being said ... the day it stopped working properly I was home. I had used it an hour earlier to heat up a breakfast bowl. I was doing something in another room and I heard it beep once and I knew no one was home to use it other than me. I went to investigate and it was humming as though it were on. The clock was at 00:00 as though power had been lost. I was home all morning and there had been no outage. I touched it and was surprised that the exterior was extremely hot and it was running on its own. I believe that if I had not been there that there would have been a fire. It took hours for this thing to cool off and any subsequent attempts at plugging it back in got me the humming and some crackling. I got my money's worth but now will be wary of leaving my future microwave plugged in 24/7.

This microwave is reliable and cooks well and not real loud. The “easy clean” interior actually is easy to clean, I don’t have to scrub it just wipe down with a hot soapy cloth or sponge. I did not clean it for the photo but I do use a cover when microwaving spattery things. It fits my dinner plates easily on the approx 12.25” diam turntable.

I love this Microwave Oven. It is so quiet and it heats up my food much faster than my previous Panasonic Microwave. There is enough buttons to use for heatups like Popcorn, Pizza, Coffee etc and you can defrost, the basics that you would use it for. I'm very pleased with this purchase. No regrets.

This unit has served me well for the past 5 or 6 years (yes, that's about the average lifespan of microwaves these days), and it started making a humming noise after the cook cycle was over. The humming would stop when opening the door. So I knew it was about to fail on me. Everything about this unit is intuitive and easy to use, so decided to order the same one again. When it arrived there were some differences. It has a new type of handle mandated by law, you have to lift up on it like a trigger before the door will open. The new LED readout is white and sharp, the older one was blue and slightly larger and more diffuse I think. But most importantly, the plate spinning transport is redesigned for the better. The old one had that tiny 3-wing thing in the center that interfaces with the plate, and the plate rode on a plastic ring with 3 wheels attached. The metal floor below the plate had a valley that the ring would ride in. EVERY microwave I've owned with that design had the same failure - when cooking moisture collects in that valley and the wheels ride through it, inevitably it RUSTS the paint and leaves an ugly ring that can't be cleaned or spray painted to look new (I tried). This new unit has replaced the tiny 3-wing plate spinner with a large 3-arm spinner with wheels attached, no need for a ring with wheels anymore (see my photo). And it's not down in a valley anymore, so no rust.

This was carefully chosen to be a balance of price, size, power, and functions. It's pretty much perfect for everyday routine use. Not fancy, but everything I need. One problem. After having this for a good while some quality issues appeared. The light inside stopped working. The bulb is not designed to be changed. The clear film over the function buttons has started to peel and bubble but functions all still work as intended. The microwave I had before this lasted for decades in pristine condition before a power surge wrecked it. So my advice is read the reviews. Terrific specs don't always tell the whole story.

Estoy muy satisfecho con este microondas. Funciona de maravilla y es fácil de usar. Se lo recomiendo a cualquiera que busque un microondas sencillo y funcional.

I was going through my past orders and didn't realize I hadn't reviewed this yet, which is crazy because I feel like evangelizing about it, I love it that much. I've had this oven for 3 years now, and I couldn't possibly be happier with it. It functions well, it's really easy to use and clean, and best of all NO BEEPING. The silent operation of this oven is its best feature and the primary reason I ordered it. I know most people are probably happy to operate it with the beeping sounds, but if having the option to silence all beeping sounds is as essential to you as it was to me then this is your oven. Once in awhile when the power goes out I'll have to reset the silent mode when I reset the clock, but other than that I never hear any beeping from it whatsoever. Not when the buttons are pressed, not when the cooking cycle is done. I've seen some reviews saying it's loud when cooking, but it's no louder than any other microwave - I don't know what these people are talking about. All microwaves make some noise when cooking.

We searched endlessly for a new microwave for our new home and happened to come across a Wirecutter article (do a web search for it) where they took some of the most popular microwaves and put them through a ton of tests. The Toshiba models were at the top of the list for even cooking (use potatoes for testing), best popcorn performance with the least amount of kernels left at the end, good defrost performance, intuitive easy to use controls and their one year warranty you supposedly don't send the unit back, rather you provide them with a receipt and they issue you a refund cheque which is much appreciated. So far we love the unit as it's easy for our kids to use as it has that basic 1980's style control layout not one of these new ones that tries to be some science fiction 2120 food preparation units. Popcorn bags come out perfect and reheating food is nice and even. First Toshiba microwave I've ever owned and I don't know I'll ever go back to Panasonic after this. Update April 2024: The unit has now died. It did a bag of microwave popcorn, then another family went to use it and the interior light was going on and off like it was shorting out and the screen was doing the same. Unplugged, plugged back in but same issue. At this point it's faulty and no idea where to begin to try and repair it so off to electronic recycling it goes. Managed to get 4.5 years out of it but not super impressed.

Hace su función muy bien, no es smart no tiene WiFi. Es un horno y es de lo mejor en su clase.

This microwave has served us well! It heated our food relatively evenly and quickly than our previous microwaves we've owned. But after 5 years, 9 months, and 10 days, it started running by itself when the door is closed without starting it and it won't stop until you open the door. Unplugging it seemed to fix the issue. However, after just a week, it stopped heating food completely at any power setting. After reading about using a microwave at full power all the time for the size of our family, it would only last 4-5 years instead of the expected 10 years. In this case, I guess it has reached the end of it's life. As far as design goes, I wish the plug was flat and angled so that it isn't sticking out of the wall and cable management would be neater. It's a little bit hard to clean the corners because the inside isn't seamless and food sometimes can get stuck in between the seams. Gently getting those out with a brush seems to work for us. Getting the glass tray back on top of the ring with wheels is a guessing game turning it just right until it falls into place on the small spinning mechanism in the middle. The new microwave we got (also a Toshiba) seems to have fixed this issue with a built in spinning platform which removes the guess work to some degree. Overall, this microwave worked really well for us, until it didn't. But such is expected I guess for the way we used it.
