Don’t ever be fooled by stainless steel Inside and out microwave ovens.
I don’t usually purchase a Microwave oven that has that grey-painted outer frame.
I had purchased a Stainless Steel Microwave that lasted approx two years and the magnetron decided to fail.
Although I could have repaired it, I decided to go for a basic manual operation oven.
In the long run, a new magnetron would have priced out just by buying a new oven.
Of course, you cannot hear it because of I.D Content playing in the background.
Cooks fast and a brand I have always found their products are durable.
Excellent microwave if anyone is on a budget, It has a 20-litre capacity.
What I know about microwave ovens could be written on the back of a postage stamp. I needed to replace my broken oven, and was looking for one that was not too large, not too powerful and easy to operate. I took a chance on this model and, thus far, I have been very satisfied with it. It does everything I require competently.
Good microwave from a well known brand at a reasonable price. It is quick and effective. A good size and easy to clean inside. My only minor criticism would be the numbers on the dial can be quite difficult to read being small, white and on black.
This microwave is easy to use. Looks nice and sleek on the worktop.
So far, it cooks food evenly and is easy to clean.
Has a glass plate that sits on the turntable.
Will hold a small/ medium dinner plate.
Looks amazing, very pleased with the aesthetics and the interior is super easy to clean. Have not had any issues so far, definitely outperforms our old unit when it comes to preparing popcorn (a common issue with some models). The microwave is extremely intuitive and easy to use with a variety of preprogrammed timer/settings. The countdown timer is also quite futuristic, indicating time frame intervals. In conclusion I’d say it’s a solid contender for this price range.
Bought this for my elderly mum ( 94 ) She had problems reading the screen and hitting the correct buttons on her old microwave.
With the twist dials on the Toshiba it is so much easier for her to use.
leave the heat setting in one position and twist the timer to the desired time wait 2-5 mins depending what’s cooking or re-heating and its job done. 800w cooks faster than the 700w so pleased we opted for the 20l x 800w
Nice size and quite weighty so it won’t slide over the worktop when the door is opened. very quiet in use, Nice finish on the paintwork, good value for money. Will highly recommend.
So the last microwave we’d had for years. I’m not sure we ever really cleaned it properly as it dawned on me it was utterly revolting and beyond saving. So, that went in the bin. Didn’t want to spend a fortune, don’t think you should have to for such a cooking tool
Turns out you don’t. This wasn’t the cheapest but was well down there. It’s so far so good. Heats stuff. On time. So that’s good.
It’s pretty light weight so I got in unpacked and up on a shelf in the garage pretty easily. It seems to work well. Timer is fine, heat level.is fine, and not overly noisy. The light inside with the door shut is dim so you can’t really see what’s going on in there, but it’s pretty obvious it’s getting warm; or hot depending what you chose. I have no complaints so far. You can gwt enough in there so good capacity. I mean who wants to put a whole chiken in there, if you do, don’t bother with this one it’s not that big. It sits nice on the side and ain’t gonna wobble. Makes a sweet ping when it’s done. Yep, so, all in all, good value, works well, looks fine. Decent overall pop de ping.
UPDATE: really happy after a few weeks of use of this. The controls work perfectly well, the ping at the end is pretty loud. I’m liking it.
I use both microwave and baking options on daily basis. I like the display, but have found the instructions poor and machine not very intuitive to use. I have found that it does cook well and fast due to the combination options. It also quieter than our older Sharp microware. Once you know how it is easy to use!
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.
This is a simple no frills basic micrwave oven. Easy to use, small and neat. easy to assemble.Timer is fairly accurate, numbers are clear but it would have been better if there had been a thin white line or dot on the side of the knob to line up with the numbers. I ran it empty as a trial when I first got and the outer casing got very hot, however when used normally with food in it the casing stays cool. Does the job and food is hot.
Bought it so I could cook 2 meals at the same time as this could not be done in my combined microwave, grill, convection oven.
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.
Right price for basic microwave. I personally don’t like microwaves I prefer old style ovens, but my daughter loves it.
Always had high opinion of Toshiba brand, we still have a Toshiba TV ,15 or more years old. I think they used to advertise they go on and on and on. Don’t hear much about them now perhaps brand has been bought by someone else. You know where everything tends to be made these days.
Anyway, looks great, good price, good make cross fingers…
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.
Looks good and stylish, nice and quiet, cooks and heats well, easy to use( once you know how) -decent price too..
Few gripes.. The door opens exactly level to the side which is a bit annoying sometime when adding big itemsremoving.
The microwave seems to Get a lot more steamed up than my last one.
The text on the buttons is tiny and hard to read… Fine once you know them but 1st time users would struggle to identify what does what.
Pretty decent overall though…
Our last microwave was all singing and dancing with grill, oven and all the fancy trimmings. Guess what we only ever used the microwave bit which packed up. This time we decided to go simple, no fancy buttons or bells, just two dials delivering what was required, a temperature and a timing level. This toshiba microwave delivers exactly that. It’s neat, small and doest fill entire kitchen up. Thank you toshiba for giving us exactly what’s on the box.
Feel obliged to leave a review for I myself had spent good few days searching and comparing, hopefully, could be helpful for someone in a similar situation.
* It is a well made, easy to use, and minimalistically looking (in a good way) microwave.
* The door is glossy but there’s a hidden handle to open it so it doesn’t collect too many fingerprints too soon.
* When working, the internal light is on and you can see through the door. It is not as transparent as some other models, but perfectly fine to see the milk foam before it spills off, for example.
* The child lock is really easy to set on and off.
* Basic microwave functions are very intuitive to find/use. One press of a button switches it on at 800 for 30sec, etc. I didn’t even open the manual to start using it. Other options are also easy to navigate.
* Unlike some other reviews mention, ours has a 24h time format, which is perfect.
* It is quite spacious for a 20l microwave, the interior is bigger than in some other models I was looking at, and compared to our previous one. A standard dinner plate fits in easily.
Yet to see how long it will survive for, but so far so good, really pleased with the purchase.
Good machine but no recipe book or decent cooking instructions, absolute zilch customer service. The oven works very well but the instructions for use have been written by someone who has used the machine regularly and is very basic, and is not very helpful in providing examples of basic recipes and cooking techniques as most ovens do. I had seen it advertised on Youtube with a recipe book included. I contacted customer services to ask for said recipe book and the person at the other end told me there wasn’t one, she was also very unhelpful with regard to using and finding a recipe book. Complained to Toshiba, I spoke to friend in electrical retail whos said, “What do you expect from Toshiba they are extremely poor at comms and custtomer support.” I have kept the oven as it functions very well as a microwave and an air fryer. I am still scouring the internet for a copy of the missing cookbook or something that will help me use it to i’s full potential. Last time I buy anything from Toshiba!
I was a little surprised how cheap international version of this Toshiba digital microwave oven was. For the price, it was good enough for basic use. Probably, it has been designed in Japan and assembled in their factory in China for low cost mass production. Although, the coating on steel looked very basic and it does not look like long-lasting rust-proof stainless steel, so it may get rusty if moisture stayed inside, which means it is better to use cling wrap or cover with minimum steam escape, then better to wipe clean with dry tea towel after use to prevent the rust. I personally would like a 24 hour clock setting if possible, because their 12 hour clock does not show it is AM or PM during the dark British winter morning or evening. That’s possibly the sun rises in the same specific time all over the year in some countries like Japan.
This is a small, effective microwave with minimal controls – just two knobs: one for power settings, and the other for timing. It has no frills, no readout, and not even the usual digital clock! It does its job and the results are as good as the old, more complex microwave I had to throw out and which it replaces. The timer is wholly analogue and setting is from the dial only. It is approximate but adequate. It counts down and ‘pings’ when finished. If you open the door, it stops BUT doesn’t reset and the most infuriating aspect is that it starts up again when you later shut the door and then you need manually to return it to zero. The secondary irritation is the smoothness of the knobs. They is hard to grip unless hands are completely dry. So in summary, a good little microwave. Ideal for student or small household. Good value but very basic and with manual features most other models replaced with digital buttons long ago. For these reasons only 4 stars.
Bought this for my mum, she is not good with technology, says its just more to go wrong, she might be right. SO easy to use, just select the power then the time with two rotatory knobs, no bleeping buttons to get confused with. Sturdy construction and easy to clean.
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.
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!
This microwave is easy to use and clean it the best microwave I’ve ever had.
This is a good microwave for a good price. It is simple to use.
I bought a cheaper microwave, Not for the usual purpose. To melt glass!!. That is how hot it can get. You must use the apropriate equipment that is safe and effective. HotPot.
For me this microwave fits the bill well, digital for accurate timing, a fairly smooth rotation and a variable power range.
I dont see any manufacturer selling their units for this purpose so thought just to add mine.
It’s really effective at warming food and beverages. It has only been overboiled once, and I am pretty bad at correctly checking and setting the time on an analogue microwave. The button to open the microwave keeps popping out though…
Bit smaller than what we were used to but makes up for it in many ways.
Like the way as soon as you plug it in It’s ready to go.
Loving the minute selection. Without programming. Press 2 and you get two minutes. Before had to wait for microwave to come on then type in 2 mins.
Air comes out of back so can put something on top of microwave.
As microwaves go great little product for the money.
800 watts power. Good range of settings. Oven is adequate. Wouldn’t suit a family. Not much room after one medium size ready meal. Suits me. Price was right. Sturdy build. Like it. Recommend.
Toshiba 800w 20L Microwave Oven manual controls, A good little microwave, good value for money.
Compact, stylish and easy to use. Just be careful with the roller frame under the plate.
Bought for elderly person but proved very difficult for them to use because of very small almost illegible dial to set time for programme.
Effective and simple microwave. Does the job of cooking and reheating very efficiently. Compact external dimensions but still has a good internal capacity for cooking.
Lacks the multiple modes and the conventional oven element of the one that it was bought to replace, but I never once used those anyway.
When it arrived the following day I was very excited, I thought it was very light, imagine my disappoint when I opened it and found toilet roll ha ha ha! Told Amazon and got a real one the next day. Thank you Amazon. Does what it says on the box , I only need a microwave to heat stuff up and nothing else, it does that well, only minutes not seconds but good for the price
I have been using for over than 1 month and the product is perfect for me.
It’s what they say in the description. Only thing is i was expecting it to be bigger compared to what i got. Overall good purchase.
Everything okay but setting the time for the clock is a nightmare.
I WISH I’D GONE FOR A SLIGHTLY BIGGER ONE, as I didn’t calculate the sizes of 2 of my cooking dishes, but was very pleased with quality design etc
