Holy hell, that temp. probe thingie looks like something you’ll find in some freaky sci-fi movie.
We have a over the range microwave at my parent’s house. The only buttons that work are 1-5 and start. It’s a Whirlpool and it was manufactured in 2005. I’ll probably buy them a new one. I know which brand I’m NOT going to get…
greedy company won’t tell us what brand microwave are most long lasting unless you pay um
The thing I hate most about microwaves is that the doors are always so loud to close! Hard to be quiet in the morning when other people are sleeping.
You sure it’s ground beef or is it horse meat? You could have suggested at least one or two microwaves just to help us make a choice. Thanks for the video.
I know that soon I will be in the market for one, but I will just bring my mum along cause she always knows best. She has had the same micro for 18+ years and its still going strong.
Ridiculous…..ugggh!
I just love that the comment section is filled with two kind of people. People who actually looking for a good microwave and a bunch of nutcases spewing out conspiracy theories.
Microwaves destroy proteins I have a friend who’s a neuro physiologist who did research at namoro the naval Aerospace and Research Center in Pensacola Florida in the 70s and found out that microwave radiation is one of the most horrifying threats to human brains on the planet. Devastating
Simple answer – don’t touch a consumer microwave – if there’s any chance you can afford one, go for a commercial version. Sure they’ll cost you twice as much, maybe more, but the build quality is far far superior & certainly won’t breakdown in 2 years like the consumer models. With a commercial microwave you’ll get at least 10X the usage out of it.
At the end of the day, consumer microwaves are designed to fail, it’s how the companies profit – cheap components, cheaply assembled. The choice is up to you, but I’d personally pay more for something I know will serve me for a long time – who the hell want’s or should need to replace a microwave every couple of years?
Don’t invest in an over-the-range microwave-hood combination. When I was a teenager, the Kenmore Elite Microwave Hood Combination quit after 5 year. The kitchen was remodeled in 2002, when the microwave hood combination was installed. Today’s build quality on microwaves are poorly made in terms of longevity and durability.
Real advice: Don’t use a Microwave, Microwave kills any food you put in it, just google search: Microwave health risks
do you guys test range hoods? I would love some information on them!

My appliance repairman commented on my counter top microwave. He said over the stove models brake all the time. The steam, grease and heat kills them.
I’ve never had one with such features aside defrosting and a varied power setting. Mine is pretty big tho. Fits lotsa stuff.
What a ridiculous and useless video.
