I wanted a compact, easy-to-use microwave and have decided after long researching and reading Amazon reviews for this model. The MW is quite small and fits nicely into my little kitchen, it has sufficient for me power and a barbecue, it is inexpensive and easy to use - 2 knobs, no touchpad frills and no battery of 64 keys or so. This MW can also use, without first having obtained his doctorate. I had to cook it today for the first time in use potatoes. A portion 2er is in 25 minutes even. This is acceptable to me. Who wants to cook larger quantities and want errreichen faster cooking time, should opt for a larger, more expensive model. For me this is ideal, however, so there are 5 points from me.
