Good points

Good Points

  • Excellent result for cooking broccoli and defrosting mince.
  • Sealed touch control panel easy to wipe over.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Only OK visibility through door.
  • Long narrow door pull handle is easy to use, but also pulls microwave.
  • Display is a little faint.
  • Prompts and written functions in digital display are particularly small and very difficult to read, therefore visual feedback on selected settings is poor – difficult to use.
  • Multi-step process needed to access some functions, but poor display makes this a more difficult process.
  • May need to refer to instruction booklet initially when using controls.
