I bought this microwave as a replacement of my old one, I was looking for a black one that would match my other appliances and would not cost much. I have been using it for months now and can only say it works great. My baby bottle steriliser fits it perfectly compared to other microwaves that were not large enough. I can’t say anything about its features like programming or defrosting because I don’t use them at all. It’s just not for me, I only set an appropriate power and time, but looking at the quality of the appliance I would expect them to work great.
Bought as a replacement for the gas oven which my elderly mother was finding difficult to use. However, she finds the wording on the microwave’s control panel difficult to read. Other than that, the appliance does the job as a micro, an oven and an airfryer.
Easy to set the power setting and timer. Easy to clean inside and the display easy to read. I don’t know if this is a standard feature on all microwaves but the turntable will always stop at a point where it started. So if you have put a cup of soup, for example, in for a couple of minutes, then the handle will still end up pointing towards you at the end when you open the door.
This replaced our previous microwave we had for at least 15 years. It was smaller but the space and power is sufficient. My only disappointment is that you can’t see clearly through the window when in use. Sauces/ liquids could overflow because of this. My previous machine had good vision. Otherwise it’s fine.
Nice looking microwave. The internal dimensions given for this microwave are 30.6 X 30.4 X 20.6. Sadly we had to return as the door opening measures only 17.5 high by 27.5 wide (i though it was going to be 20.6 high). All the inside walls are curved giving the extra size but are not usable as you can only use the max size of the turntable width anyway. Anything that you put in it has to be no higher realistically than 16cm. Sadly no good for me.
My previous microwave (a different brand costing about the same), had to be replaced after just a couple of years as the plastic coating inside was flaking off leaving exposed rust. I’m pleased to say that this one seems much better made and the door closes with a satisfying clunk; it’s also much quieter than the one it replaced. It’s a fairly standard no frills device that allows per second timing and has a few special settings, although oddly no bread defrost button which I use a lot. I also think that all microwaves should display the power output on the front as it’s easy to forget and a faff to spend longer searching for the manual than it will take to cook the ready meal you have in your hand; the previous one did, this one doesn’t. All-in-all very happy with the purchase for the price.
Not a bad price for a brand device. I don’t tend to use all the features but it does what it’s designed to do simply enough with one button press.
Our previous microwave (a Sanyo) had a failed bulb that had no access to replace it and was starting to get rusty, so having read positive reviews of the Toshiba we bought one. After almost a year I see the good points and the niggles. The good points are that it cooks and reheats evenly, the door opens and closes easily and the instant full power for various minutes are a real asset. The niggles are that the defrost function has ‘by time’ or ‘by weight’ options, but nothing in the manual explains how to choose the time for anything, so only the weight is usable. Our Sanyo used to do part of the defrost, then pause for 2 minutes for temperatures to equalise then go again to finish the defrosting. The Toshiba does it in one go, and dense foods like joints of meat need longer that the weight decides. I add 10% to the actual weight for a proper defrost without starting to cook. The turntable rotates jerkily rather than smoothly, and it is too easy to dislodge from the drive and is fiddly to put back. The clock doesn’t keep exactly to time and gradually gets fast so I had to reset it about every 6 weeks. The time functions are not consistent: If I Time Cook, I put in (say) 415 and it assumes a leading zero and I get 4 minutes and 15 seconds; If I use the Kitchen Timer function and put in 415 it assumes a zero on the end and I get 41 minutes and 50 seconds. That took a bit of getting used to. None of the niggles would put me off buying one again, but I can’t give it 5 stars.
Our other microwave gave up but it was very old. Was surprised how much we missed it.
This one is so much better, don’t have to put on for as long as gets things very hot, goes to show how bad other one was.
Bought this purely due to this ceramic coating of the interior. I respect Toshiba brand too.
Only use a microwave for heating milk and warming up left overs.
The machine seems sturdy and well made. It’s true that the buttons are a little small but once you know which does what there’s no need to keep reading them.
I like the look of the machine & the function to keep the handle of cup or glass jug facing out is cute.
My main hope is that this ceramic coating lasts. So many machines the ‘paint’ flakes off on the join of the bottom of the machine to the small facing strip.
I try and keep the machine clean & aired.
Good delivery and competitive pricing from Amazon, ty.
After my microwave giving up (good make) after 3 years I decided to go for a cheaper one. This is really good, quick and handy pre-programmes, I like one touch button you press to automatically add 30 seconds plus to time and use this mostly. Coated steel inside is great, easy to clean and looks great. Light is slightly dim and buttons are hard to see but with regular use I’ll be able to use it with my eyes closed. Overall pleased with purchase.
Works as it should and decent value for money. Can’t complain. Only slight downside is the round dial can get slippy when trying to turn it to set the timer.
Delivery bang on. Just the right one for me, no faff, easy to use, simple instructions. WHATS NOT TO LIKE! Why would Amazon think I want a new microwave when they just delivered one?
When I read the reviews I was almost tempted not to buy but some of
these reviews are inaccurate. I read that it didn’t have a twenty four hour clock – it does! I read a few others but decided go ahead. I’m so glad that I did because it’s great in every way apart from the turntable derailing easy. No problems if you ensure that it’s in place correctly before cooking.
I particularly like the kitchen timer.
I’m very pleased with it and recommend it.
It works OK but as others have said the numbers on the timer are difficult to see and the timing is not accurate and no seconds, what I have done is downloaded a timer for my smart phone and that times from 1 second to hours, I use that for accurate timing. Just turn it on higher than the timing you need then turn it off when your phone timer beeps at you.
Being disabled, I ordered this to replace my old microwave that had died. I’m pleased with the machine itself, but have to say it being not delivered by Royal Mail was quite inconvenient. I had to order food in as it did not arrive next day, and Royal Mail decided to only deliver a card through my door to say it was a heavy item, and needed to be collected from the sorting office. However, the microwave itself is here now, and works fine.
Microwave working fine but it was obviously a returned one, inside packaging broken and incomplete, despite sticker saying remove film before use there was none in situ. So a bit disappointed.
I’m very happy with the microwave not so happy with the delivery. The box did look like had been bashed about as the polystyrene was all broken. However it has been nearly a year now and I’ve had no problems.
bought on a prime day so cheaper than usual
does the job, doesnt seem to heat liquid as quick as my old 800w beastie but that became unusable to paint loss inside and i hope this doesnt go the same way
The power level dial could be clearer with bigger and whiter icons, the grey icons are hard to read without me reading specs so if you need glasses learn to read what setting you are on by the digital display
all in all happy with it on day one.
on a side note it was delivered by a nice lady from royal mail who couldnt lift it so i had to walk out to her van to retrieve the box
Best thing is that it cooks well. If you use a low setting, it cooks at that setting rather than cooking very hot for a few seconds then stopping for a few seconds, repeat. The result is that things like eggs don’t overcook or explode like they did in my old microwave on low settings. The dials are really easy to use. It has not started to rust inside like my old one did within weeks of purchase. So far – fantastic and I would purchase again. Bad points: The markings are ridiculously indistinct and I have to put my glasses on to read. You get used to that and you can always add extra marks in tipex or white paint if you want to. The dial is not accurate when you get to the last few minutes. For instance, set to 3 minutes and it will often stop after 2. Again, you get used to this but it is annoying. The worst thing was the delivery but that is not the products fault. A certain company promised next day delivery but it never arrived. They sent another promise for the next day and the next. We wasted 5 days of our life before cancelling and reordering. The reorder arrived as promised. Summary: Cooks really well. Good luck with delivery!
Great microwave at great price. Black design goes well in our kitchen.
Great does what it says on tin, doesn’t take up too much room, easy to clean. Would recommend.
each time you use it such a lot of condensation have to dry it before it ru ns on my work top never had that before
Very happy with this microwave. Looked everywhere to find something affordable and looking good.
It’s powerful enough, 800W, cooks very well, most at that price are 700W which is not enough.
The knobs take ime to learn but once you memorize it you’re good. They have very nice instructions too with drawings and icons easy to understand and flick through.
It also is compact, but has the same capacity as others, so it should fit even small spaces.
Beautiful new equipment to match the rest of my black and red appliances in the kitchen, would recommend highly.
The start button is one press to give 30 seconds of cook time and the other programs are easy to access. Really nice finish and good quality ceramic interior makes it dead easy to keep clean. We’ve had several with painted interiors and eventually they simply go rusty. This one looks much better quality and great for the price.
Easy to use and heats up meals quickly. Good value for money. All good so far.
This is a very smart compact black microwave with clock.
Purchased for a Christmas present and the receiver is very happy with it. Good value for money
Good value for money , easy to use for the elderly.
The lettering on the dials is to small even when you bend down its difficult to make the them out .
Seems to be well made, in China unfortunately, but it looks good and does what it claims
I am of the older generation so wanted a microwave that was easy to use, this one was ideal for me.
A very good easy to use and easy to clean microwave. I am really pleased with it.
Good microwave, the wife is rather impressed with it, thanks
Great looking oven Easy to use Inside light could be brighte
No instruction leaflet enclosed-took a while to find the necessary . Discovered papers on the web. It does more than the write up on your site.
Bigger than I was expecting, it’s a normal size microwave, very sturdy and easy to use, very satisfied
Decent little microwave. Not massive, but does the trick for normal day to day reheating etc
Very easy to use very styles looks good in y kitche
Very pleased with my new Toshiba microwave. I use it for defrosting and reheating mainly.
modern clean lines fantastic ly quick compared to my old one
I am very satisfied with the product quick delivery well packed
Great microwave, easy to clean, decent power heats up things a lot quicker than my old one
Just wanted an easy to use fairly compact microwave! Initially felt overwhelmed by insteuctions but in fact easy to use! Couldn’t get used used to it have a handel as previous microwaves didn!t have one but other than that ok to use!
Very easy to use once you have worked it out. Instructions a bit hit and miss
This is a great microwave for the money I paid, would recommend
Smooth design, silent and efficient, even have a timer that can be used for other things!
Great service, delivered very quickly, easy to install and setup. Looks good so far.
The Microwave is very smart and neat and it is useful for doing a meal on the quick. Would strongly recommend this product, but only get it from Amazon. as they are the best on line company.
Instructions fairly useless – but as I only need for basic tasks, it’s OK
Great quality product.
For the price, appears to be the best quality one on the market.
I like that inside is like a teflon finish that is easy to clea
i liked that it was easy to use it looks very smart as well
We find this easy to use, read the instructions you won’t have a problem using this
It does what it says. It’s an easy to use, no frills, efficient microwave oven at a reasonable price. It also looks good
Lovely little microwave. Not as big as our last one but plenty big enough for our needs. Lots of settings and the mute button is a godsend.
I’m delighted with my microwave, it’s very easy to use and having an enamel interior it’s so easy to clea
Great wee microwave. Works well. A bit small. But does all I need. I like it.
I bought this microwave to replace my old one because the lining had started to disintegrate. I bought this especially because of the enamel lining in the hope that it lasts longer. It is really smart to look at although the writing on the buttons could be clearer hence the four star rating. Other than I that I’m really happy.
Good microwave, very powerful, nice design and good size for small kitchen. Happy with purchase
Takes some getting used to with the controls but operates just fine
Great little microwave easy to use easy to clean cant fault it .
A great buy easy to use and to clean.i use it a lot and no problems would recommend…
