GalanzGLCMKZ09RDR09 Retro Countertop Microwave Oven with Auto Cook & Reheat, Defrost, Quick Start Functions, Easy Clean with Glass Turntable, Pull Handle, 0.9 cu ft, Red

While the expensive stainless steel, convection oven, and overhead stove vent, microwave, lost its microwave function everything else works. That likely means the Magnetron has failed. It could mean the diode has failed too, but either case has too much labor involved to repair. I looked at having a new one installed, but those big box stores that do it require a specific vent size and refuse to do any modifications, so you can be left with a mess dealing with contractors. The good news is except for the microwaves themselves every other function works. I can even use the convection oven feature if needed. Still, I need the convenience of a microwave.Thinking about it a bit I remembered I have a large countertop oven on my prep table. This particular model fits perfectly on top. I bought a heat-resistant mat to prevent slippage of the microwave feet and installed it out of the box in five minutes. While much smaller and less powerful than my old unit, this fits most of the things I use a microwave for. Heating water, melting butter, small frozen dinners, reheating pizza and sandwiches, it does them all fine. The price of this was fantastic as it cost roughly one tenth of the cost of my old unit, and less than the trip charge a local repair facility would charge me to evaluate a repair estimate.I like the retro look and the simple controls although there is a bit of a learning curve. My old unit had mostly intuitive buttons, so selecting power levels and presets was easy. I never bothered with the manual on my old unit, but I've had to access this one a few times for the special timed cook, reheat, defrost and other settings. It's not overly complex, but you do need some information. I laminated a card with the basic settings I'll use and attached it with a magnet to my fridge. That should help. despite less power most things I've used it with cook nearly as fast and as complete as the old unit. Recommended.

Attractive retro microwave oven. I really like every feature on this product.

Love the retro look it heats up very quickly. It does what it needs to do. It’s very small though so it’s good for like college students.

A nice little microwave with a cool retro look. My wife loves the look and the easy to use controls. Looks good on the counter and works well.

Granddaughter loves it!

Beautiful oven! Great craftsmanship for the price. Oven heats/cooks oven great.

I'm absolutely delighted with my Galanz microwave! It has so much personality.After buying a new microwave that didn't quite fit with my black and white kitchen decor, I was on the hunt for something that would.When I stumbled upon the sleek black and silver Galanz microwave, I knew right away it was the one for me! I quickly handed my new microwave over to a friend and made the switch to Galanz.It arrived at my doorstep in just about 72 hours, and the packaging was excellent. It's user-friendly and heats my meals perfectly.I'm thrilled with my decision!I also adore all the different colors it comes in!Thank you, Amazon!!! ♥️Thank you, Galanz!!!! 🖤

It’s okay with the price but may take extra minutes to heat up food!!
