Toshiba 900w 23L Microwave Oven with 1050w Crispy Grill, Energy Saving Eco Function, 8 Auto Menus, 5 Power Levels and Position Memory Turntable - Black - MW2-AG23PF(BK)

A great microwave that's really easy to use. One knob selects the function, the other selects the time. You can even just shut the door and press Start without doing anything else and it'll instantly start cooking on full power. Every press of the start button thereafter increases the time in 30 second increments. Really couldn't be any simpler and it looks great too. Very happy with purchase and would definitely recommend. EDIT 25/04/2025 - Unfortunately, after initially impressing, the unit we had completely died after a few weeks. Thankfully Amazon customer service were (as always) absolutely brilliant and arranged a collection and replacement without hesitation. Hopefully it was just a rogue unit and the new one doesn't suffer the same fate. 5 star appliance (when it works) but minus one star for the hassle of replacement. EDIT: 14/12/2025 - Replacement unit has been working like a charm without any hiccups for 8 months, so can now confirm that the original was just a rogue unit... 5th star added back on.

I got this on black Friday for round £80 and very pleased with it . Its more powerful than my last so took a few goes to get use to this . The grill function is handy and soes great cheese on toast . As a microwave , it a nice size will take a large dinner plate with room and though it might sound like a gimmick the return function is actually great ( put a cup/mug/jug in with the handle facing you and it ends with the handle facing you ) . I use it reg and it doesn't take up that much space . The fact it will grill , combi grill and microwave is a bonus . I'm very happy with it

I like the look of my new microwave and the simplicity of operation. The interior looks easy to clean and does not have an annoying lip at the front, as did my last one. Too early to comment on long term performance or durability but at least it feels pretty solid. Two gripes: I discover from the label that it's made in China -- and I'm trying to avoid products from the realm of the CCP; can't even the Japanese make stuff at a competitive price any more? And whatever possessed Amazon's operatives to place the delivery label squarely over the unpacking instructions on the box?! Unlike most Amazon labels, it didn't even peel off easily so I had to guess (wrongly) how to unpack my heavy, unwieldy microwave oven! Thankfully, no harm done.

I bought this because mine broke after twent years - how very dare it. We had been together so long then one day up and stops without any pre-warning? So began the ritual of finding another. I turn to my old pal Amazon to find it. What a rotten lot most microwaves seem to now have become? It must be all those disgrunteld makers who would no doubt like to be making something else than a boring thing like this. Well wake up you lot! The reports are not good for most of your offerings until you finally find a gem like the one I now have? Its directions paper is not easy to understand but I found by trial and error that the numbered buttons on the front are all minutes? You can then either just open the door to check the heat of your warming cuppa or whatever meal you are making and put it back on with a lower number of minutes or higher to finish the dish. You can actually programme it yourself for that same old samey you have every day but I am not fond of that idea because someone else may not want it and if its permanantly on that one setting your visitor may find their warming cuppa has become a scallding inferno. But for you computing wizards out there you may enjoy the differnt to the normal But each to their own. So far no nasties in regards to it working, unlike I read the majority of others has been? For me its a winner folks!

I've never had much luck with microwaves. A Korean (D who?) model died after 3 months, and the replacement, made by that guy Russell that sits on a hob, looked fantastic but started making noises when left on about a year in... almost like a forced ECO mode so you had to keep turning it off. It died recently. Enter the Toshiba then that is a black, sleek and powerful thing that combines digital with dials and a memory turntable so you can heat up a mug of hot chocolate and never worry where the mug handle will be, when the turntable stops turning. The controls aren't too straightforward and you may need to arm yourself with some reading glasses if you aren't a spring chicken using this in studio quality lighting. It looks and feels like a quality product though and makes all the clunky microwave noises when opening/closing the door that will send you right back to the nineties. Functionality wins with this one over style, which might be a good thing if that translates to longevity.

Great product and performance, looks like new after 8 months use

I did lot's of research after my last oven died. This fits the bill perfectly and at a great price. Looks good.Can take a standard size dinner plate with room to spare. Power is more than enough. It's easy to use and clean. Eco function is great with display going off after 30 seconds and comes back on instantly you open the door or touch a control. Importantly it's not too big and sits on top of our freezer easily. Highly recommended.

I first bought a Toshiba Microwave about 30yrs ago and it was built like a tank, this one being of today isn't although the box wasn't damaged the rear left hand corner was bent, I straightened it with my hand not perfect so a bit disappointing, hence 4 stars. Its much more powerful than the 800w Samsung that I had previously, maybe they lose power or a more modern one is more efficient but its certainly more powerful than 12.5% extra. The controls are about as simple as it gets the only system more simple is a door switch instead of a push button, but believe me its easy to use. I like the fact its very quiet, easy to clean and has a turntable memory system, overall excellent value indeed mine was only £95 such is the Amazon pricing system. Top Tip. Aways dry the door after use.
