Title : Hinari Lifestyle MX708TCSL Touch Control 0.7 Cu Ft Microwave Oven 800W Silver (Chrome Door Handle) Rating : 2 Stars out of 5. Summary : Problems on Day Two
Really pleased when I received this and used it for the first couple of days, simple to operate and efficient, looked good. Suddenly started working on its own, can't set clock, can set power or time - very frustrating. Threw box away so think I will need to go through the bin now. Probably just unlucky but beware
Title : Hinari Lifestyle MX731SSEG Easi-Tronic 0.7 Cu Ft Microwave Oven 800W with 1000W Grill Stainless Steel Rating : 3 Stars out of 5. Summary : Pretty but flawed
I should start by explaining that I kept this microwave for all of one day for reasons that will become clear, so I haven't really had the chance to rate it's effectiveness in cooking.
Unfortunately, my Hinari MX731 arrived with a defective fan, which made a loud knocking noise from the very first use (as if catching on something internally). Amazon were their usual efficient selves in accepting it back for a refund, though. What this says for build quality, I don't know - I probably just got a defective unit.
The unit looks fantastic - neither large nor particularly small, the stainless steel all over finish looks more expensive than the price tag suggests, and the button fascia with dial adds some modern elegance (so I feel). The retro 'rod' handle isn't to everyone's taste, but I liked this too and it feels more solid than some more expensive models' equivalent. As others have commented, no stainless steel interior here, so avoid if you're specifically after one.
The weakest point of this microwave by far is the control panel, though. While the dial and buttons operation look great, they are not intuitive to use - selecting defrost etc. can take practice, as some have said. Much worse is that the microwave emits a loud, piercing 'beep' every time the digits on the display alter by one. So, if say you want to cook something for 15 mins., it beeps through each option, then beeps 15 times for every extra minute you turn the dial. So annoying! I don't think you can turn this off, but other users may be able to advise. I know most ovens beep, but at least with touch control, you can usually select increments of '10 mins'.
So, just a summary of first impressions and overall I would say that this is a good value unit, but one that puts aesthetics before practical usage.
Title : Sharp R-249(W) Compact Solo White 20L 800W Touch Control Microwave Oven Rating : 3 Stars out of 5. Summary : Sharp R-249
Neat design, very easy to run, and fast cooking. Can be easily moved, not extremely heavy. Quiet operation, lights when cooking. Only features I would like are a lit clock display and a light in the interior as soon as the door is opened. These were features I have had in other ovens. For the money, it is a very good buy and I am happy with my purchase.
Title : Sharp R24STM Compact Solo Stainless Steel 20L 800W Microwave Rating : 4 Stars out of 5. Summary : Good, for the money
It does exactly what is says on teh tin and looks pretty good. However, do be warned that it is not the most subtle of machines. It makes the most appalling noise, akin to having a 747 in your kitchen. You need to constantly reposition it to stop the infenal racket.
