Farberware 1100W 2.2 cu ft Countertop Microwave Oven With Smart Sensor, LED Lighting, Child Lock - For Apartments and Dorms

We got the 2.2ft refurbished because we were on the hunt for a new microwave because ours was almost 10 years old & needed to be retired. We also didn’t want to get stuck with a dinky little Walmart special for 80 bucks so… When we saw this one on major sale as a new-used refurbished microwave at half the price…. Or rather, the same price as the 1.1 cubic foot sized microwave, I thought, why not? Well, first off, this bad boy is MASSIVE. Nobody has any business with a microwave this big if you’re not maintaining a sizable restaurant. I’d look at this in a small family home such as my own & wonder just exactly what (or who) they’re putting in that thing. We were struck when we first opened the box. My Pomeranian & Jack Russell mix were all excited about the new thing on the floor & BOTH climbed in like it was their new home - that’s how big it is! Of course we promptly removed them from it before placing it on the counter & plugging it in. No spicy puppy nuggets for us today. But you could probably cook a decent sized Turkey & all the holiday fixings’ in one go inside this thing. Or use it to crawl inside & hide from a burglar if you’re small like me. Well worth the price already & doubles as a home defense safe room. It also cooked nearly twice as fast/hot as our old microwave, which I’m assuming is a standard 1.1 cubic foot size & 900 watts. This thing is a beast, if it actually was used/refurbished, I couldn’t tell because it arrived in perfect condition. We’ve been using it for a month or so now for just about everything & I have no complaints. The lighting is nice (our old one went out years ago so we couldn’t see siht. But with with this you can see inside very clearly. It also has a reminder “ding” If you haven’t opened the door after it finished. I like the many pre-sets but Will say that the popcorn one is too strong for any popcorn we’ve made since buying it, so keep a close eye on it or deal with the wrath of toddlers for burnt kernels’. If this gets us even half the time our old one did it would be worth every penny. Highly recommend, would but again.

I used a different brand microwave for the last 5-10 years, each microwave lasted about 5 years. I decided to try a different brand, so I bought the Farberware because it was the same size as our other micrwaves 2.2 cu ft. A new appliance takes a bit of getting used to, as the controls are different than your previous one. At first I didn't like this microwave because you have to press the cook time button before entering the cooking time, because the first six digits on the number pad are quick start times (1 min, 2 min, 3 min etc). That is the only feature I didn't like. The start button is automatically 30 seconds, which I use more than any other time. The memory button is easy to set up to input specific times. Simply pressing the 1 on the number pad starts the microwave for 1 minute without pressing a start button, which is great. The microwave cooks incredibly even - way better than any microwave I've had in the past. I like the darker interior and this microwave is QUIET!!! Definitely a 5 star microwave and a definite recommend...

My wife and I hadn't bought a countertop microwave oven for many years. After reading several reviews, we decided on this model and are extremely happy with it's performance. The cook time is incredibly fast and even. The oven runs quiet and has a pleasant signal when cooking is complete. The lock button is a good feature with grandchildren in the home and is not a bother to press when needed. Easy to clean too!! We strongly recommend this oven.

Good value for the money until we found out it has exactly ONE YEAR LIFE SPAN. The trouble shooting is "plug it into another outlet" nope still DeaD. It's perfect for what we needed but at this price it's better to go with something super cheap from Walmart instead. If I knew I would be paying $$$ for something to last EXACTLY A YEAR. And fail IMMEDIATELY after the return window. Well. I won't be doing as much business through Amazon anymore. At least Walmart gives you a year return window exactly and not cut you off two weeks short ( we didn't even receive the microwave on Sept 4th 2022 it was a few days after that .. ) Guess it will go out on the street with a free sign. Maybe someone can use it for spare parts. Looks brand new. Is still very clean. No power surges over night and it's just dead for no other reason than I think this is what it was designed to do. Thanks for being super expensive and then failing immediately after you didn't have to keep working. Glad we live in the disposal age where all our money means nothing. I have a special needs child and I often need to heat things up but I guess today we will have to use the actual oven and increase our energy bills. Awesome. Can't afford a new one so we are literally up the creak. Thought a good name brand like this would come with better support than "did you try plugging it into another outlet?" .

I just got it. So far it works great

I really like the Lock Feature. Helps to keep your little one safe from getting burned. Microwave is huge. Now I can re-heat a whole chicken.

Farberware 1100W 2.2 cu ft Countertop Microwave Oven-I purchased this microwave when my fairly new Fischer & Paykel unit stopped working. Unfortunately while doing my research, I learned [from reading the reviews] that most microwaves last only 2-3 years & that it is most cost effective to just replace them. With that in mind, I decided to purchase this unit at a price I thought was reasonable [under $200]. So far, I like the way this Farberware microwave operates. The unit is super quiet & even has the option of turning off the 'beeping' sound when operating [which silences the pressing of buttons & the 'done' signal]. I love this feature!! It also has a 'sensor cook' feature which is very useful. Overall, this Farberware microwave is a nice product. Only time will tell how long it will last. We'll see. **Note to Amazon & potential buyers-this microwave is 1200 watts NOT 1100 watts as currently advertised.

This is my second order for this microwave. I enjoyed the first one so much

Nice big microwave. Quiet. Been good so far

I am extremely disappointed in this Microwave. I live in Sydney Australia and I purchased this item from Amazon AU. Therefore I expected it to be Aussie Compliant. But it has a foreign electrical plug and every time I press the START button it trips my circuit breaker and switches off. It is un-usable. Obviously I will need to return it and that entails a whole other world of hassle and annoyance. What a joke. Time wasted and expense not to mention the endless reading you need to do and follow to get a simple refund. Not happy at all!!!

just love it it works great
