This review is from: Kenmore Black 0.7 Cu. ft. Counter Top Microwave 69079
I bought this microwave in black. Its small enough that it does not take up too much space in small apartment. Its powerful enough to heat up food thoroughly as much as my large over the range microwave did. Average sized plates fit in the microwave, but I tried a bit of an oversized plate and it fit, but the plate did not have enough room to spin. Basically just use the normal sized dinner plates and you will have no problem. The microwave door opens with the handle. The buttons are easy to use and easy to find everything you need. The display is bright green, and you can see it in the dark if you need see the time. I have had this microwave for about a month. I will probably never use the popcorn function (I have a whirley pop), so I can't state how it pops microwave popcorn. I reviewed many micro's before buying this one, and I am happy with this buy.

This review is from: Kenmore Black 0.7 Cu. ft. Counter Top Microwave 69079
I was very surprised at the price of this Kenmore microwave offered on Amazon, because I ordered the exact same model (69079) directly from Sears. The oven alone cost $59.00 and with shipping and tax the total price was $76.68.
This model cooks at 700 watts but because of the small size of .7 cubic feet heats stuff as quickly as my old Sharp 1.2 cubic feet which cooked at 900 watts. The model has a child lock and the usual cooking selections, such as quick touch for popcorn, potatoes, frozen entrees, fresh vegetables, etc. You can also perform multi-stage cooking. The key pad is sensitive to a slight touch, you do not have to poke hard.
I am giving this micro five stars although I haven't had the oven for very long. If the unit does not hold up well I'll adjust the stars, but so far I am very happy with my choice!
