Russell Hobbs RHM2362S 23L Microwave, 800W, Auto Defrost, Silve
About your Russell Hobbs microwave
Microwave ovens do not generate any heat themselves but instead cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the microwave stay much cooler.
Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the appliance is lined with metal. The door is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops microwaves getting through.
Cleaning
Avoid using scouring pads, steel wool or other abrasives. Warm soapy water and a sponge should get rid of all moisture and food spillages.
How to get the best cooking results
Reheat
With five microwave power levels to choose from, you can ensure all your food is cooked or re-heated to the optimum temperature.
Auto-Defrost
This microwave has automatic defrost settings, all you have to do is input the weight of the food and the microwave selects the ideal defrost time.
Auto Cook Menus
The RHM2362S also features pre-programmed auto cook menus such as pizza, fish and popcorn, allowing you to cook all your favourite food at the push of a button.
Hints and tips
To avoid any microwave mishaps it is recommended to take extra care with the following:
Low moisture foods (eg. cereals, bagels, dried pasta, pulses and chocolate)
– These must be cooked on a low power level for a very short length of time, or preferably not at all.
High sugar content foods (eg. jams, syrups)
– These foods can become easily ‘super-heated’ when cooked in a microwave oven.
Foods containing alcohol
– Foods with an alcohol content must not be cooked in a microwave as they could ignite.
Foods with a membrane or outer skin (eg. fruits, sausages, potatoes)
– Food with a sealed or none porous skin must be pierced to allow pressure and steam to escape.

So far so good.
Is a good size for its price, I just wanted a basic microwave without a load of features that I’d never use.
Very happy so fa
Great item will be getting another one at some pou
I have had one of these for many years and bought this replacement because the one needing replaced became marked in the interior. This was probably my own fault for not giving it a good clean as often as I should have.
My new one is identical in every way and it is the easiest to use microwave that I I have ever had. My new one now has a label just inside the door which reminds me that this is an 800 powered device. This is so useful because so much food packaging bears instructions for different powered microwaves and I used to get confused through inability to remember what power the microwave has. This is one of the best items that I have ever bought from Amazon.
lovely looking microwave easy to use bought as replacement quick delivery
This is a very nice microwave. Very good quality and lasted me several years. I think it wouldve lasted me longer but i had to leave it when i moved out of my dorms.
Would definitely recommend though im not sure id pay 100 for it (ie current asking price) but when i bought was definitely good value
Lovely looking microwave very stylish.
Very easy to use. No Manuel reading necessary
This microwave is great I recommend it if your looking for a microwave.
If you look closely paint on front left inside isn’t flat it is bubbled before use. Will this affect its operation? Time will tell. Not happy you can’t just set a time then press go it should assume you need 100% without a quiz. Sent this to seller. If the paint bubbles are an issue it’s going back.
we were pleased with the last model so ordered the same
as i said top marks wasy uses and drive who delived it very helpful for old age and disabled top mark for careing as well very happy thank you amazo
Brilliant to use.One of the best I’ve used Thanks
I bought this microwave in May 2017 and it’s still going strong. I can’t comment on the rust that other people have experienced as so far, this microwave hasn’t skipped a beat. There’s no signs of rust, the buttons and the dial all still work perfectly and this thing is used pretty much every day. Getting any appliance for a reasonable price that lasts as long as this has is difficult at the best of times, but even with the negative reviews, I wouldn’t hesitate to get another if I ever needed to!
This is the second one of these my wife & I have bought.
We were so impressed with the first one, which we’ve had for 5 years now, without any issues whatsoever, that we purchased the most recent one for our Son, who thinks it’s perfect for every day use.
Agree with the other reviews about rust but Russell Hobbs has had a good reputation for a long time.
Purchased May 2016 and rust on the front panel has been there for a while. I only use the microwave for heating porridge, soup, tea etc. I have a nice oven for anything else. For the last few weeks it’s started playing up. Tried cooking soup , porridge etc and everything just explodes all over the inside of the microwave and the food is tepid.
So I completed a lacerating review and posted it. Blamed it all on the Microwave and Russell Hobbs.
Then I thought it would be a blindingly good idea to read the manual. Which talks endlessly about maintenance. Page 13 talks about keeping the wave-guide cover clean. So I cleaned it and it works a treat again. Fingers crossed for the future. Replacement guides now ordered from amazon and a mental note made to clean the inside of the microwave now and again in future.
So remember to read the manual and follow the advice. Look after the microwave and it will look after you for a bit longer than otherwise.

Heats up food very quickly. Looks beautiful with its mirrored door and sleek buttons
This is my second one, my first still working, but husband taken it down to his shed as it’s easy for her m to work so he’s bought me a new one .
The first one that we purchased lasted for 3 years. We were pleased with the ease of use and other aspects so bought the same thing again.
Old microwave stopped working so ordered this lovely looking microwave, easy to use easy to keep clean, is an asset to busy housewife. Delivery was excellent and arrived within few days.
We were looking for just a microwave cooker, no fancy features like grills, ovens etc … this one fits the bill. It is 23L in volume, the turntable just big enough for our plate, easy to use, just what we were looking for.
This is a great product. I didn’t want it as a grill or an oven and it fits the bill perfectly.
Very easy instructions and is totally reliable. My only criticism, and its a very small one is that the mirror door does not let you see the cooking process. But the timing results are perfect.
It’s for domestic use to replace my old one. Since it’s early delivery, it’s been serving the purpose of which it was purchased. It’s easy to operate. Apart from the door that’s not as solid as my old one, it looks okay. For durability, time will tell.
Bought this exact same item 4 years ago. My daughters microwave unfortunately caught fire couple days ago (scary for her), so very wary of purchasing replacement. I suggested having mine and I would purchase new one. Having trolled through all contenders finally sourced the same microwave again and I have not been disappointed. Looks great very stylish and fulfils all my requirements brilliantly.
