Galanz GLCMKA07BER-07 Retro Microwave Oven, LED Lighting, Pull Handle Design, Child Lock, Bebop Blue, 0.7 cu ft

While the expensive stainless steel, convection oven, and overhead stove vent, microwave, lost its microwave function everything else works. That likely means the Magnetron has failed. It could mean the diode has failed too, but either case has too much labor involved to repair. I looked at having a new one installed, but those big box stores that do it require a specific vent size and refuse to do any modifications, so you can be left with a mess dealing with contractors. The good news is except for the microwaves themselves every other function works. I can even use the convection oven feature if needed. Still, I need the convenience of a microwave. Thinking about it a bit I remembered I have a large countertop oven on my prep table. This particular model fits perfectly on top. I bought a heat-resistant mat to prevent slippage of the microwave feet and installed it out of the box in five minutes. While much smaller and less powerful than my old unit, this fits most of the things I use a microwave for. Heating water, melting butter, small frozen dinners, reheating pizza and sandwiches, it does them all fine. The price of this was fantastic as it cost roughly one tenth of the cost of my old unit, and less than the trip charge a local repair facility would charge me to evaluate a repair estimate. I like the retro look and the simple controls although there is a bit of a learning curve. My old unit had mostly intuitive buttons, so selecting power levels and presets was easy. I never bothered with the manual on my old unit, but I've had to access this one a few times for the special timed cook, reheat, defrost and other settings. It's not overly complex, but you do need some information. I laminated a card with the basic settings I'll use and attached it with a magnet to my fridge. That should help. despite less power most things I've used it with cook nearly as fast and as complete as the old unit. Recommended.

Best microwave I have purchased in awhile! Love the vibrant red, and retro look. It’s a perfect size, not too big or small and very easy to use. I also really appreciate the child safety unlock/lock button. Highly recommend. Great value for the price as well! Has good power, but doesn’t overheat or burn items.

Very simple very basic microwave oven. I use it for the spare bedroom guest bedroom. It’s on top of a portable refrigerator. It’s attractive to the eye and does the job well.

I recently went traveling to a place where I'd be for several weeks, but it had no microwave. So I went ahead and ordered this Galanz model. Advantages: Not super-high power draw (900w rated), so not much chance of tripping breakers. Just big enough for a dinner plate. The child controls can be disabled, although the instructions they provided for doing it weren't accurate. It certainly cooked well enough for my purposes, and while it was loud when it first turns on, this quiets almost immediately to a low level. For me, it was a fantastic choice to serve as a "travel microwave", and I got it super cheap here. I also quite like how with a single knob control, you quickly start an automatic 30 sec cycle, but if you turn the knob during this, the overall time increments as high as you like. This got me thinking that it might be a good microwave oven for those without much space and who perhaps are a little technology-challenged. "Put food in. Close door. Push button. Turn to the time you want. Wait until the beep." Very simple. One complaint: The black text on the red background is almost unreadable. Therefore I have to suggest getting a lighter color, unless they change the design.

Cute, great quality for the price. Essentially no noise, sturdy yet lightweight. Child safety lock mechanism. Very compact, heats up fast with multiple settings

So simple. So cute, love the color. Fit the custome made shelf perfectly

This is my second one the first one lasted many years. I bought this because it was a little cheaper because it was red. And I’m really glad that I got the red one because it is really cute anyway works perfect.

Great microwave. It’s stylish and functional. I love the quick 30sec button!

The microwave is gorgeous and works very well. We like the rotary dial as it is so simple to use.

Llego antes de tiempo y perfectamente empacado Más hermoso que la imagen

El horno de microondas es un buen producto.

I had it for several months now and enjoy the microwave. People compliment it and it sure looks like a statement piece. Fast heating and so far very reliable
