Review Text: Good but not great!. On the plus side, this was on sale for a pretty good price. The oven is sleek looking. In the short time I've had it, the inverter technology seems to heat more evenly. It's quite powerful at 1000 watts versus the 800 watt unit it replaces, although so far I still have it, so now I have 2 microwaves in my small nyc apt lol. On the down side, although the interior is larger, my visionware pots which have handles do NOT fit in it! Well, they fit, until the turntable starts turning and the handle gets stuck! My old unit is smaller, but lacks a turntable so my pots fit better in a smaller space! Not happy about that. The only controls you can set without opening the door is the +30 seconds button, which is flush with the surface, and doesn't always engage when pressed. It seems to do better with a thumb vs index finger but it's annoying. There's also a "slide" button where you swipe to increase or decrease time, marked with - or +. But it's also flush, and not terribly responsive. Setting it for 6 minutes and 20 seconds is a slow process compared with a number keypad where you just push 620. There are more controls once you open the door, but still no keypad! I think this is a terrible design! The door covers the entire front of this oven, so it needs lots of clearance! And, it opens to a 90 degree angle and no further...it is made of plastic and feels like it could snap off if handled roughly. Or, you could snap a finger on the I'll-conceived handle when opening it quickly. These shortcomings have become more apparent the more I use it of course, and while I'm not unhappy with it, it really hasn't been an upgrade for me except for the converter and the slight power increase. Like anything else, I'll adjust to its quirks and may learn to appreciate it lol. At least I still have my trusty old microwave where my pots fit!
