Title : Samsung G643C Microwave
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Samsung Combination Oven
Microwave cooking is now a way of life. But although Microwaves cook quicker than conventional ovens, crisping and browning of some foods can still leave much to the imagination.
Samsung's new range of combination ovens now give you the benefits of both conventional convection oven and grill as well as a Microwave oven. For example roasts will still be golden brown on the outside (using hot air from the convection oven) and tender in the inside. Additionally, your cooking time will be dramatically reduced.
A fast pre-heat, a crusting tray for Pizza's, pies and quiches combind with the Ceramic Interior are three further reasons to own a Samsung Combination Oven.
All Samsung microwaves come with a 12 month manufacturers warranty

Title : Sharp R254SLM Compact Solo Silver 20L 800W Touch Control Microwave
Rating : 2 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Over spohisticated and unreliable
This machine has too many fancy features that look useful in the shop but have never been used in practice. No great thought seems to have gone into the design, e.g you can't clear any programmed time with the door open, you have to close it first and if you switch the machine off and on again you have to set the time before you can microwave your ready-meal. And the display packed up on my machine about 14 months after purchase.

Title : Matsui M350TCC Microwave
Rating : 1 Stars out of 5.
Summary : reliable?
bought 1 year ago, within two weeks it set alight and melted the door. no answer was given of why it melted by the shop. they replaced it free of charge. 1 year later it just stopped working, no power at all, the shop had no idea why it lost its power. wanted to charge a fortune to replace power boards inside. i only ever used it once a day to warm food so i dont see how it would blow! on a nice note the grill is amazing! but would not buy it again

Title : Daewoo KOR-63MDC Touch Microwave Oven White 800W 20L
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Works well, but the timer....
Works just like it says on the box.
Even cooking and simple to use.
Robust and well built.
Annoying fact: The timer is fixed, 1, 3, 5 minutes etc.
So if the Chicken Vindaloo says 4 mins, stir and 4 mins, you end up just doing 5 mins, stir and 3 mins instead because you can't be bothered to clock watch.
Still it does cook exceedingly good Vindaloos....

Title : Panasonic NNA873S dimension 4 1.1cuft stainless steel combi microwave

Summary : Panasonic NNA873S build quality
If I were reviewing the way the microwave works, I'd give it 5 out of 5 but if it weren't for the fact I like the way it works, it'd be 1 star for attention to detail/build.
By coincidence I ordered one for me and one for my parents. Mine arrived with a big dent in the side (the boxes are sent as they come and I don't think stand up to the couriers treatment). The interior light of my parents microwave packed up after about 10 days use.
The replacements arrive. My parents one had a tiny convex dent in the top (we decided to accept it to save any more hassle -it appeared to be a manufacturing flaw). Mine appeared perfectly ok -I was delighted! -I carefully removed the tape (holds the door in place during transit) and was horrified that it removed a chunk of paint with it! The tape was much stickier than usual for that kind of tape and/or were attached to the paint when it wasn't dry.
There are apparent quality-control issues here with these microwaves (it seems like they're being rushed in the factory from the little problems), possibly not helped by what appears to be poor treatment by couriers. Having used 3 of the 4 microwaves, the way they "sound" in use and the way the door "clunks" is slightly different, possibly not an issue... but something I noticed.
I will say Amazon were good and let me keep both the faulty ones while the new ones were on order. The re-ordering process I think would have been simple if it weren't for me ordering two the same, so again, I think this normally would have been fairly painless -though I recommend calling Amazon by phone if things get complicated -it's much easier to sort things out once and for all as they don't generally seem to read detailed emails properly.
I'll briefly review the microwave itself...
I may have just been very unlucky, but I will say the microwaves do perform very well... The autosensor function does an excellent job of cooking baked potatoes for example... though I miss the autoweight control feature for pizzas (now a manual process on a top of the range microwave -seems a bit odd) -the display even shows "pizza pan" but it's unlit and possibly for a different market. From the pre-programmed food, I think the people who program the settings at panasonic must think british people only eat curry and roast dinners. Some little points I wouldn't have noticed til I got them... the display is a bit tricky to read unless the microwave is seated high on a shelf or fitted and the buttons are not that easy to read (but a small price to pay for an really shiny s/steel finish!!). I think though that if you get one in perfect condition, you'd be pleased with it. For larger items like this I think in future I'll probably just go and pick one up in a store, even if it is a bit more costly... it's less hassle.
