Farberware 2.2 cu ft

It heats food evenly, operates simply, and has enough power to handle common tasks like reheating leftovers, making popcorn, or warming frozen meals. The controls are straightforward and easy to understand, which is a big plus if you do not want to deal with anything overly complicated. The design is clean and modern, and the overall unit feels like a good value for the price. For anyone looking for a dependable microwave that covers the basics well, this one is a worthwhile purchase.

I chose this particular microwave oven after doing a quick "top 10 best recommended" search. I have purchased a number of Faberware products and am quite happy with the quality and economical price points for them. This is a size and power upgrade for an aging GE 700 Watt countertop microwave oven. The included instruction manual is easy enough to follow and setup went fairly quickly. The unit build is quite sturdy and the easy touch Control buttons respond well. Functionality is excellent and relatively quiet. The internal glass platter has reasonably powerful steady rotation as well as the internal space being lit while in use. I can easily recommend this product to anyone looking for a mid sized countertop microwave while not breaking the bank to acquire a quality solution. One of the nicer aspects of this particular model is it comes in 7 different sizes, the larger ones with increased power ratings as well as multiple color schemes to choose from. Easy and economical choice to accommodate most any counter space.

I love how it looks and how small it is. We have very limited counter space, and this works perfectly in our small kitchen. It fits a medium size casserole dish. It cooks just as well as my old, larger one.

This is a nice microwave, looks good on the counter. Does have an interior light so you can view what is cooking. Is fairly quiet, once in a while it seems to get loud. Has multiple presets. Does have a door lock, which IMO is very annoying. Haven't looked in the manual yet to see if it can be turned off. Seems to cook well. I use my microwave and slow cooker a lot, so depend on them. So far, so good with this microwave.

Very sturdy. Prefer the pull handle for opening. Like that it has a dark interior instead of white. Works great! Great microwave for the price.

We've had this microwave for 4 months now. We are very satisfied with its performance. It is loud, as some people commented, but I don't feel it's louder than other microwaves. My partner thought we had paid a hundred dollars more, if that's not saying something :). Highly recommend.

EDIT 12/25/2024: Rating reduced from 5 stars to 1. It would be zero if I could. The unit arrived in a day and there was zero damage to the box. The unit also had no visible damage to the cabinet or the power cord. But it was electrically dead right out of the box. I read the manual and followed the instructions which were few and simple. The display would not light up. The control panel was completely unresponsive. I plugged it into several outlets proven to be working with other appliances. Nothing. It's just dead. Back it goes. Already processed the return. It's disappointing. I'd expect at least minimal quality control like plugging the units in to see if they'll at least power up and the lights come on before they're shipped out to retailers. Apparently that didn't happen. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Just for clarity since their are multiple versions in this product listing, I bought the 1.3 cu ft, 1000W version with the stainless steel finish and the curved door handle. A microwave is pretty much like a coffee pot or a toaster oven to me. We use it 99% of the time to..... 1.) Heat up coffee or tea. 2.) Defrost frozen stuff. 3.) Reheat leftovers. 4.) Make popcorn. So the question becomes can it do the basics with an easy to use control interface and is it durable / reliable. The answer in this case is yes. This is a direct replacement for the exact same Farberware branded microwave I bought 7 years ago for the exact same price. The only difference is that the original one was black and this one has a stainless steel finish. The styling and control interface is identical except for a couple of feature additions in the new one. But as an offset, the old one had an output of 1100W and this one is rated at 1000W. No big deal. The physical size both inside and outside are identical. That's critical for me as this thing has to fit in a built in cubby / garage over the counter. And this is the largest unit that will fit I've ever found. As for the inside, it will fit a large dinner plate. Good enough. As for the control interface, there is a zero learning curve as it's almost identical to the one it's replacing. It has the basics covered..... 1.) Time cook. 2.) Time defrost. 3.) Weight defrost. 4.) Power level adjustment 5.) 5 presets for popcorn, pizza, dinner plate, potato, frozen veggies, and beverages. 6.) One touch cook time from 1-6 min. The old one was 1-3 min. 7.) 30 second one touch add by pressing the start button again. It's obvious that they put some thought into the interface to make it really easy to do what microwaves are used for 99% of the time. If you need to read the manual to use this, well... you need help. LOL, it's that easy. As for value, the original black one cost me the exact same $135 in March 2018. It's not dead. It still heats fine. But the timer / clock display flips out intermittently then comes back to life randomly before failing again. Just annoying. And the inside has seen enough wear that its not possible to get it really clean looking any longer. But hey, this thing gets used probably 10 times daily by 4 people on average. And at $135 the original lasted 7 years. That's about $19/year or $1.60/month. I'm OK with replacing it with a newer version at this point. I got good value out of it. Hopes this helps anyone trying to make a decision.

I just received this so I can’t speak to its longevity but they don’t make things to last anymore so I’m not going to worry over that, just happy to have full size microwave after my last started to smoke on new years day no less! It was 11 years old so Probly that’s a normal lifetime anymore. I was using a very small one till this came and couldn’t wait for its arrival which was quickly and on time. Love the non white/beige interior, not sure why most are like that. My last had dark interior too and loved it. Very nice and sleek looking in the dark steel color. I will say tho, the keypad could be easier to use as far as it takes a pretty strong push to set the numbers you want and not sure the reason for the button to open the door when cooking is done, a safety issue I guess? But it can be disabled thankfully. All in all it’s a nice microwave, extremely heavy and a nice average size.

El color era que buscaba y su funcionamiento

I am extremely disappointed in this Microwave. I live in Sydney Australia and I purchased this item from Amazon AU. Therefore I expected it to be Aussie Compliant. But it has a foreign electrical plug and every time I press the START button it trips my circuit breaker and switches off. It is un-usable. Obviously I will need to return it and that entails a whole other world of hassle and annoyance. What a joke. Time wasted and expense not to mention the endless reading you need to do and follow to get a simple refund. Not happy at all!!!

It was delivered broken. Opened it up and there were shards of glass everywhere.

No lo pude usar y lo tuve que cambiar porque hacía mucho ruido
