went through 3 of these in about a year. turned out to be the door latch being fragile. if its damaged by catching on a shirt or anything, its plastic, then you need to spend a lot of money on a new door. the latch isnt sold separately, and without repair the microwave wont heat. The part is molded plastic and probably cents to make, but again, only choice is a new door. Otherwise the unit worked well as advertised. in trash now and searching other brands. would not recommend.

Was good when it worked. It still would work, if it wasn't for the door latch not falling off. So, one of the two little hooks that lock the door when you close it, broke off. Why? becuase they are spring loaded and made our of plastic. My microwave is almost new. This broke within a few months. Now with the latch broken, the Microwave wouldn't start because it must be a safety feature, stopping the microwave from working. Even though one latch is still there, I think the safety trip button was behind the latch that broke. If I could find the little plastic assembly somewhere, I will replace it and the microwave will start working again. But I cannot find it. I am hoping customer service can help me out. Will be reaching them out.

After purchasing (and using) 3 Solwave microwaves over the past 18 months, we have found them to be just as reliable and powerful as any other brand we have ever purchased. The cost is lower than any of the other commercial options out there. Shipping is typically free when ordering from the Webstaurantstore.com

JUNK!!!!!!!!! Didn't even last a year before it blew up. 6 month warranty should have been the key factor in determining quality. What a piece of junk!!! Never again. Save yourself the hassle and spend the extra money to by the Amana brand one

I had to have a microwave on hand but don’t actually use it often. It doesn’t have a turn table inside so be prepared to warm things in small increments and stir often. It is very powerful and has handy preset options. It doesn’t take up much room which is very nice if your kitchen is quite small.

Quick cooking, easy to use with no learning curve on operating. Take note, you do need a 240V outlet to get this thing fired up. Well worth having your electrician add the extra.

Microwave died after seven months. Worked well for our kitchen staff, but seven month lifespan is pretty poor. If it had lasted at least a couple of years, that would have been more acceptable.

I had been searching for a good microwave for quite some time. I was surprised at how cheap some of the ones on the market look and wanted something sleek that would blend in with my new kitchen. This was the perfect choice! It's very easy to use and isn't very loud at all. Great if you wake up earlier than someone you live with and don't want to wake them. The buttons are clear and easy to read. It has several specialty functions that are going to be really useful!

This microwave works decently. The only bad thing about this microwave is that there is no turn table. it does not heat food very evenly.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry you did not prefer this product. This unit contains a microwave stirrer, designed evenly distribute heat around the cavity.

Currently have 8 of these units in a busy call center environment. The oldest is coming up on 2 years and so far there continue to work perfectly and very simple to operate. One user decided to put substantially too much cook time on their dinner and it literally charred the food so badly that the it set off building smoke alarms, bringing in the fire department. The point of the story is the charred paper plate highly stained the inside base of the unit and with some cleaning detergent I was able to remove 95% of the stain and to this day, the unit still functions flawlessly. I am moving to a new site shortly and will gladly purchase more for this site.

This piece of junk lasted less than 3 weeks before it died. Try and research "Solwave" and see what you come up with. It's a no name china company. It is certainly not a "commercial" quality microwave. Drive down the freeway and throw your money out the window if you want to buy this. The fan runs on after it's used and the instructions are incomplete. You will only be able to figure out how it works by messing around with it. Read

I feel as if this microwave does not heat evenly. It heats up dishes at the bottom but not the top. Food either comes out to hot or not hot enough depending on the dish. I do like the timing options it’s of increments of 10 seconds
