Great Microwave

Reviewed by Billy (Gourmet Cook) from Burr Ridge, IL on Dec 01, 2011

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

This microwave is replacing an old one we had for years. We've probably gone through 5 or 6 in our household and Cuisinart is the best we've had. Set up and go. Not only easy to use but does a great job cooking, heating, defrosting, food. Great design and look, but the best feature is it's a great microwave doing what we bought it for.

Cons:	Confusing Display
Best Uses:	Popcorn, Quick Meals, Leftovers
Pros:	Simple Display, Heats Evenly, Easy To Install, Easy To Clean, Powerful, Attractive Design

Less than stellar performance.

Reviewed by Woodsman (Avid Cook) from Mountain Home, AR on Jul 01, 2009

BOTTOM LINE No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not nearly as powerful as the 18 year old Panasonic of similar size that it replaced. Preset popcorn function only good for popcorn in prepackaged mini-bags. Would only pop 2/3 of kernels in Presto Popper, even when manually setting time and power level to same as previous unit. Preset buttons white lettering on light gray background hard to read. Rounded front design kind of retro looking. Opening door will often move unit. Push button type latch would be preferred. Clock would go back to zero every day or two for the first few weeks. Ok now though, but for how long?

Pros:	Easy To Clean
Best Uses:	Poaching eggs, Defrosting
Cons:	Presets hard to read, Clock function unreliable

Good, solid microwave

Reviewed by Paula (Avid Cook) from Walla Walla Wa on Mar 26, 2009

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this microwave to replace a cheap microwave I purchased about one year ago. It was very flimsy and rattly since new. I decided to replace it with a better more solid unit. After reading many reviews I felt that the Cuisinart would be what I was looking for. It arrived very quickly and in good condition. Was very easy to set up and the controls were very easy to use, just quickly browsed the instruction manual. It is well built, looks good and is quiet. Some people commented that you could not set an exact amount of cooking time. Just look in the instructions and you will see that it is very easy to do so. I am very happy with the purchase and for just a little more that the price of the cheap discount store models, you will get a very nice quality microwave.

Pros:	Heats Evenly, Simple Controls, Powerful, Easy To Install, Easy To Clean, Attractive Design, Simple Display
Best Uses:	Popcorn, Leftovers, Defrosting, Quick Meals

Works Good Just like a Microwave Should

Reviewed by janjems (Avid Cook) from Chicago, Illinois on Jan 27, 2009

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Works good, display functions some are cofusing. Designated functions are very nice. Cooks more even than my last microwave but its not perfect. When following instructions to cook it still comes out a little uneven. Easy to clean off. Looks good. Its quieter than my last micro. All over review is pretty good...better than some microwaves.

Best Uses:	Heating Liquids, Leftovers, Frozen Food, Popcorn, Quick Meals
Cons:	Heats Unevenly, Confusing Display
Pros:	Quiet, Powerful, Easy To Install, Easy To Clean, Attractive Design

Nice oven...

Reviewed by Maple Sugar (Avid Cook) from Utah on Nov 13, 2007

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Looks and works great. Only thing is figuring out how to set for seconds to reheat something. I wish they didn't stamp Cuisinart into the metal on the front either. That could have been more discreet. But overall, it's really nice. It's a bit pricey but my husband wanted the stainless inside. We just use to reheat and for popcorn so I could've done with something less expensive.

Best Uses:	Leftovers, Frozen Food, Popcorn
Pros:	Powerful, Simple Display, Attractive Design, Quiet, Stable Tray, Easy To Clean, Heats Evenly

Best microwave I ever used

Reviewed by Liz (Casual Cook) from Snohomish, WA on Aug 13, 2007

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

This microwave is great for heating foods or defrosting. It does not leave "hot spots" and heats the whole dish evenly and quickly. The rotating tray is a nice feature and really reduces the time needed for heating or defrosting. It is also easy to remove and clean. I just had relatives visiting and they all want to go out and get one.
