Comment:
Chose this microwave for the size (1000 Watts, large interior, large lazy susan) and for the hidden keypad because it looked sleek and neat. Discovered soon that the hidden keypad was kind of a pain. But do like most of the features (popcorn, variety of reheating options, auto-defrost, auto-cook, add a minute cooking). Beware, the auto-defrost requires babysitting, as you will have to flip the food and press start again. However, the appliance has been very reliable in over the 4 years we've had it, and if you can live with the hidden display, it's a great tool.

Cons
Flimsy door
Hard To Read Display
Steams up inside
Best Uses
Comment:
It looks great and after I got used to the display being inside the door, I liked that feature. It tends to cook hotter than other microwaves I've had and it collects steam inside while cooking, which makes reading the display more difficult. But on the whole I like it.
