Kenmore 1000 Watt Microwave Review

I have used many microwaves over the years, and have had my share of microwave troubles; but none works as well as this one. I now have a Kenmore Quick Touch 1000 watt microwave and love it. It is easy to use (even my husband can figure this one out), a good size (it fits very nicely on what little counter space we have), it has so many of those nice quick-use buttons on the front like popcorn, dinner plate, quick minute, etc. I don't often use the microwave for preparing whole meals, usually it is used more for heating foods up and preparing things like microwave popcorn, but this one has the space that I do have the option of preparing a whole steamed meal in it, which I have done on occasion. In the past I used a Sharp Carousel among others, but when the magnetron went out the company would not replace it, even though it was still under warranty, so this time when I was ready to buy another microwave I asked plenty of questions before buying. Sears employees were very nice and helpful with my purchase and even graciously answered all of my questions. They had plenty in stock so there was no waiting and I didn't have a bit of trouble getting it home as it isn't terribly heavy either. It was very easy to set up and the clock feature is simple as can be. It has a timer too, but that feature can't be used while using the actual microwave. I use the defrost feature so much on this model I really like the way it works. When choosing to defrost an item just select defrost and the weight of the item, the microwave stops after a while to let you turn the item to continue your defrosting without cooking the item during the defrosting function. This one was definitely a good purchase and has been a great addition to our small kitchen. I would highly recommend this product to any one looking to purchase a new microwave and especially to those who have been burned by other companies and poor products. Go with a Kenmore!
