What to look for when buying a microwave?
- Power (measured in wattage).
A 750-watt microwave has more power than than a 1,200-watt microwave.
- Ease of use.
Are the controls and buttons easy to understand? Are there any pre-programmed settings (like defrost)? If you have children, will they be able to use it on their own?
- Size/capacity (usually measured in cubic feet)
Will your plates and other dishes fit in the microwave?
- Manufacturer's warranty.
If something were to happen to your microwave, what's covered by the manufacturer? How long does the warranty last?
- Color and style.
Will the new microwave match the rest of your kitchen appliances?
