Farberware Professional FMO13AHTBKF 1.3 Cu. Ft. 1100-Watt Microwave Oven with Smart Sensor Cooking, ECO Mode and Blue LED Lighting, Matte Black

Our previous microwave died after about 11 years of faithful service. I found this after a quick search and it duplicates just about every feature that we were used to one the old one. It's interesting that after more than a decade, there really aren't any new features or design innovations in microwaves. I guess these have pretty much reached the level of evolution of a toaster where they are good enough and reliable enough.Anyway, this is 0.1 cu ft smaller than the old one and 100 watts less powerful but it seems to make no difference in cook times. The overall package is a little smaller too. It actually fits our built in cubby a little better. And the old one was white inside whereas this one is a dark gray enamel. I think I like the darker finish better. It won't discolor over time.The looks of this unit are sleek and clean. I like the fixed, curved handle on this unit vs the push button door release on the old unit. One less moving part to break. Simple is better. The matte finish is a good idea too. It doesn't show fingerprints like a shiny black finish does.

I really love this little microwave. It's size and functions are perfect for our family and it fits the counter space I have available. We've been using it for over a month now and have had no problems with it at all. Food is evenly cooked, no complaints there. Very happy with this purchase. If it lasts as long as my old Kenmore I'll be very happy but it seems from reviews that few microwaves these days last long so we'll see I guess.

Happy with this purchase, light is a little dim but it's not an issue for me. Smaller than my older one but the same size inside. Fits a whole dinner plate inside, cooks faster than my old one, looks nice, and I simply am happy. Read SO many reviews and was skeptical of every brand, seems they almost all have 3.5-4 stars. Been over a month, maybe closer to two months of use.

I bought this microwave on June 16th, 2017. I first noticed that as the rotation plate went around the wheels on the circle under the plate was making grooves in the finish. Then several months later I heard a cracking spark sound like it was going to cause a fire. Thought I needed liquid in the plate. I then wiped everything down and noticed the top of the microwave was peeling LARGE pieces of peeling. Now I was REALLY scared. I googled it and found they sell repair kits of paint for this. ARE YOU SERIOUS. I paid $149.99 for this unit and it is barely 2 years old. I am so UNHAPPY about this. This is a name brand unit. I would expect quality from this manufacturer. I am afraid to use it and also will not purchase any products from them again. FARBERWARE it seems doesn't have the quality in workmanship it once did. For the money I paid for this 2 years ago is barely what I expect for it to but the dust. Not at all HAPPY.

Microwave is great! Love the one touch feature and sensor cook option. I also like the door handle as opposed to the push button to open the microwave door,the matt black finish exterior looks great along with the blueish interior instead of the traditional white. The microwave itself is a 5star the 4star rating is because if you're not a Amazon prime member they seem to drag their feet on shipping

I like everything about this microwave. Great price for an average sized microwave. The perfect matte exterior. The gray interior that totally adds to overall style. Its large enough for a family size of 3 or more. Food heats up nicely. Defrost works great. I have used the sensor reheat twice because I am skeptical about it. The first try it didn't warm food enough. The second try it heated up 3 mugs of tea perfectly. I will continue to test this feature. I would recommend this item without hesitation.

Bought this three years ago, to replace a Panasonic microwave that died after three years. I liked this one a lot, particularly small things like being able to instantly run it for 1, 2 or 3 minutes, and being able to add 30 seconds on to cook time with one touch. Used it several times a day. And then, yesterday, sparks started shooting out from the side enclosure where the light is, and there was smoke with the smell of burning. At this rate, maybe I should just imagine I'm renting the things.

This is a nice looking, well built microwave, with all the ease of use features one wants in a microwave. I really like the one button start for a 30 second high power heat, it makes it very easy for a quick warm up of leftovers when you want to keep a close eye on the food.
