The Farberware 0.7 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave is perfect for small kitchens, dorm rooms, or offices. Despite its compact size, it packs a solid 700 watts of power that heats food evenly and quickly. I especially like the auto cook settings, they make preparing common foods effortless, and the defrost function works very well for frozen meals. Cleaning is a breeze thanks to the easy-clean interior, and the child safety lock adds peace of mind for families. The sleek black design looks modern and fits nicely on my countertop without taking up too much space. Overall, this microwave is reliable, user-friendly, and efficient, an excellent choice for anyone needing a compact, high-quality appliance. Read more

It looks very modern and the controls are pretty much standard, so there really was no learning curve. It has decent capacity, it works well, and it is not noisy. It was super easy to set up and use. No headaches. It's great price and a very nice looking microwave. My wife was really pleased with it, so that's great for me. If she's not happy, no one's happy. Read more

This is the classic, small, cheap, low-power microwave that has graced millions of dorm rooms, office break rooms and the like. If you look carefully, you'll see that most of these small, 700 watt microwaves have absolutely identical control panels, meaning that the guts of this one and most of the others are likely very similar. I am sure Faberware licenses their name to whoever makes this, and the same factory in China probably makes most of the other ones that compete with it. A low-power microwave seems to be a commodity product at this point. So I would get whatever one is cheapest, in my case it was this black Faberware, but your mileage may vary. Advantages: It's cheap, it is very compact and good for small spaces, and because it has lower power it is less likely to trip a breaker than a full-sized microwave. This also means it is a good choice for an RV, cabin with a moderate off-grid power system, etc. I confirmed that even a Jackery 1000 can run it for several minutes without overheating, although it actually pulls just a tiny bit over 1,000 watts. The 700 watt rating is the energy going into your food, not how much power the microwave uses, I suppose. But even pulling 1000 watts, it doesn't completely eat the battery in the Jackery 1000 to run this thing, it goes down 1-2% per minute of operation, meaning you could absolutely power this in a power outage with the big Jackery power station or something equivalent. The disadvantages are simple too: It has a bit less power than a regular microwave so your food will take a bit longer to heat up. It can get stuff just as hot, it just takes a bit longer. That is really no big deal unless you are trying to microwave a frozen dinner and the recipe is designed for a regular, full-power microwave and you'll have to guess how much more time it will need. More significantly, the oven itself is pretty small, meaning any oversized dinner plate or particularly tall item is not going to fit inside it. But it otherwise has everything a regular microwave has including a small turntable to help your food cook more evenly. Most people will step up to a larger and more powerful microwave as their daily driver. If, for whatever reason, that doesn't work for you, this thing is fine and it isn't really that big of a step down from a normal sized microwave. Read more

Over the few months of using this microwave, I only use it 1-3 times a week for warming leftovers, I saw what I thought was a small spider 2 times. I thought it was weird but wasn’t upset. It’s a noisy item but worked well. My son was over and saw a tiny bug and was able to grab it with a napkin. To my surprise and disgust it was a cockroach!! I had him put it on the patio until I could see where I had purchased it from. Since it was purchased from Amazon it’s too late to return it. No mare appliance purchases from Amazon!!!!! Now I have to have an exterminator come so this turned into an expensive microwave! Disgusting! Read more

Arrived well packaged and shipping was great. I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this microwave but once I got it opened and set up I instantly fell in love with this microwave. Easy to see and large buttons. It heated up water for tea in less time than I set it for and made my favorite microwave food with ease. It's a great product but for the price it's well worth your money Read more

This was a good little microwave until somehow we changed something so that it is only a timer. Have tried multiple things to get it to actually cook but not solving the issue. Don’t have the manual to figure out what the issue is. Also locks easily but at least there is a sticker on the top to tell you how to unlock. This is in our camping cabin we share with others so we are replacing it with a different model that is easier to use. Read more
