(More customer reviews)This microwave oven has got to be the most sturdy of all because as I was lifting it onto the kitchen counter, I lost my grasp and it fell, banging onto the kitchen floor. I thought for certain it was a goner, and I would be so unfortunate as to have to order another one. However, I lifted it to the counter once again, this time successfully, plugged it in, turned it on, and lo and behold! I was in luck. It was as if no such accident had ever occurred. The stars were with me!
It's a very nice looking oven (by the way Amana is made by Maytag Corp.), and I purchased it to replace my Sharp Carousel which bit the dust after five and one-half years, having served me admirably until its demise. I was satisfied with it, but I just thought I'd try another brand.
What I really like is a button called "My Choice," where you can select such features as: display weight in pounds or kilograms, language (English, French or Spanish), daylight saving time on or off, adjusting the volume (even plays a tune - I went with the medium setting), a child protection lock - yes or no, and even word prompting speed. There is a snack bar button for nachos, chicken wings, potato skins, cheese sticks, etc., and a "Handy Helper" button to melt chocolate, butter or soften cream cheese (often a problem as waiting is inconvenient). For Pizza lovers who have difficulty with reheated pizza not working out so well, there is actually a button solely to reheat pizza. There is a "Kids Meals Button" (hot dogs, french fries, chicken nuggets, frozen sandwich) and in Cooking Instructions there is some very good information on microwave cooking procedures.
Having just received it, I can't testify to this microwave's longevity. But it certainly did survive quite a crash. So it must have a lot of spunk!
I am very pleased with my purchase.
