" ... First one I ordered was very noisy so they sent a replacement. ... "

" ... I returned it, but am hesitant to re-order because - as of the time of my purchase - NONE of the variations/choices offered for this particular model (size and finish) are presented with dials… so rather than a shipping mix-up, I wonder if the item descriptions are wrong….yet many of the customer reviews me mention dials, so maybe Amazon is shipping out old stock? ... "

" ... I tried contacting the manufactors via Amazon but they have the wrong contact info listed. ... To submit a ticket on their website, you have to sign up, but that's broken. ... "

" ... Took way to long, I gave it a chance then happily returned it. ... "

" ... I used this microwave to heat one thing once a day for one minute. ... "

" ... Just came plugged it in and bingo it's excellent makes enough noise so I know its on & running + enough pings so you know the job is finished- the speed for 900 cb ft is extremely high & fast- I bought the white model for $79.00 hopefully there will be no sweat and rust as with my 1+ yr B & D will let you know don't know why gov consumers don't step in on models that don't make a yr service ...
