Bad points

Bad Points

  • Only OK visibility through door.
  • May need to refer to manual initially when using controls.
  • Seam around digital display can trap dirt and grime. Reflective panel shows smudges.
  • Some small holes on the inside of the microwave that can accumulate grime.
  • Audible beep is fairly noisy.
