    Basic and simple to use. Not good for someone wanting precision timing.
    Agree with previous comments that dials are not easy to see, but is not an issue for me.

    UPDATE: randomly stopped working, sent it back to Amazon as under warranty.

    Very happy with this microwave, it’s quite big. The knobs could be easier to understand but it does what it needs to do and heats food well, quite stylish.

    We wanted a microwave that was easy to use and able to fit a large plate inside. This does the job well. Very good item at a very good price.

    Good basic microwave
    Does what you need, a good basic microwave. The only downside is that it’s really difficult to set the timer as the indicator on the dial is black too. Therefore you have to get really low down to see where it’s pointing.

    Black dial
    Only one problem is with it being black it is very hard to read timer dial. Need to keep torch handy to see the groove.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersCheap Affordable with a few problems.
    Well it’s a microwave it works etc
    But…The Power knob clicks into the apropriate settings fair enough…
    The lower knob has no markings on it to tell you where you are for the cooking setting times!!!
    How bloody stupid a really bad design fault.
    So..ive had to cut a marker in white paper and position it at “0” and tape it on, so I can use the timer to actually cook food properly.
    Tower what on earth made you miss something so important?
    Good point…extended guarantee when registering so don’t buy Amazon’s as it’s not needed.

    I don’t use a micro wave often so I did not want to pay a lot of money. I am delighted with this one. Just what i wanted and looks good. I seem to be using this one more often. Would recommend.

    Very easy to use. Only drawback is that marking on dial knob is not very clear. Had to put a blob of nail varnish to indicate how many minutes am turning too. Only a small indent on the knob which is not very easy to gauge.

    Great value for money but.....
    My only criticism for this product is that because the item is completely black it is very hard to see and make out the markings for usage – I have had to put white Tippex on the dials so my elderly mother can see them in order to use it.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersFine if you like to guess how long you're setting it fo
    I’m young enough to still not need reading glasses but old enough to know how quickly things go pear shaped if the microwave isnt set to what the instructions say. The tiny moulded black arrow on the black knobs on this micro are practically invisible. I’ve had to stick an orange sticker over each one so that I can see what the microwave is set at. Other than that I find I just as fast as my old 1000w micro and far more compact. Happy with it now that I have resolved my knob issue.

    Just what I wanted a simple to use microwave. As someone else said the dial you turn to set the cooking time has no marker so you don,t know how long you,ve set it for to cook its guesswork. Surely they could remedy this ? I just stuck a marker on other than that it does the job and heats up well

    Fantastic...Everything you need
    Really pleased with this purchase. It is stylish and easy to function. Arrived well packaged, no unwanted marks it was immaculate. It does have a light inside when in use and the glass turn table I have not had a problem with. Great value for money. There are reviews on this product that say it rusts inside, but as long as you clean it out after each use it you should not get that problem.

    I was looking for an inexpensive microwave that was not too big and easy to use this one ticked all the boxes and looks really smart as well, it arrived very quickly before the date given I’m really pleased with it if you want a basic microwave without all the bells and whistles you couldn’t do better than this.

    Golden Review Award: 40 From Our UsersA great little simple to use microwave, though the interior height is a bit small.
    I bought this to replace a Bosch microwave that cost 168 two years ago, which despite only receiving light use over that time began deteriorating after just 12 months use.
    After getting fed up wasting money on supposed quality brand appliances I opted for this Tower T24015S and also liked the idea of going back to the old style manual non-digital microwave. I’ve been pleasantly surprised at just how good this microwave is, it cooks quickly and evenly. It’s relatively quiet for a microwave and it’s compact.
    The only reasons for not giving it a five star review is that the door handle and dials are a bit cheap looking, with that chrome effect plastic. The door front shows every fingerprint and light mark, so unless you’re willing to clean it daily it can look messy very quickly. And while the interior cooking space width is good, (you can easily fit a large dinner plate inside), the actual interior height is quite low. You can just about stand up a pack of microwave rice in it. Apart from those complaints it’s a really nice little microwave.

    Capable wee micro.
    Got this to replace an old warhorse of a micro that has been in the family since the 1980s. It was still working but I felt it couldn’t possibly be safe!

    Can’t see this one lasting as long. It is though a perfectly capable little microwave. Choice of power settings. Glass tray inside which rotates.

    The timer is a dial which you twist round to the desired length of time and then it begins rotating back. Not a huge problem but it doesn’t respond too well if your fingers are damp from some cooking task. I’ve had to grip it with a towel on some occasions. Aside from that the only problem I have found is that the inside is a bit small. I often heat up pouches of basmati rice that are designed to micro with the top snipped off. They rub on the roof of the oven though and often tip over as the plate rotates them.

    No biggie though. All in all I am perfectly happy with it for the price.

    Stylish and simple to use.
    As a basic microwave oven, this is perfect. It looks stylish, looks nice, easy to operate and does what it is supposed to do.

    This is from Tower – a Russel Hobbs company, so its a name that you can trust.

    There are just 2 turn dials. The top is for the power setting from low at the far left to maximimum on the far right. The lower dial is the timer, just turn the dial and the timer starts. The timer has a maximum countdown of 30 minutes. Top open the door just pull the handle, no buttons to press. This microwave is simplicity in itself to use.

    I prefer a larger countdown and a clock, but that is just me. If you do not want a clock and a no fuss microwave, this would be my choice.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersI like it. I don't love it.
    This Tower 800W Microwave manual oven is a very basic model in well finished but old fashioned style. It is very easy to use. The instruction booklet is well set out, with pictures of the microwave controls and a good written section on how to use it. The instructions warned that there could be a little smoke or odour on first usage but my appliance was free of these.

    The power dial has six settings but I have only needed the high and defrost ones. The timer dial is manual and not digital. If cooking something for 40 seconds, you have to set the dial to 2 minutes and then bring it back to where you guess the 40 second position to be. It is not as precise as a digital microwave and it is useful to have a clock or watch with second hand to count the actual seconds required to ensure correct cooking time has been gauged correctly.

    This is a fairly standard microwave but it does a good job, with the food always heated evenly. It certainly does the job. However my previous microwaves have all been digital, and I didn’t think I’d miss a digital readout nearly as much as I actually do. But I know that’s a personal thing, so I won’t let it affect the star rating.

    While the mirrored glass door does look incredibly stylish when the microwave is not in use, I found that there was a trade-off – the view of what’s actually happening inside it is less clear than any other microwave I’ve owned.

    Bottom line… It’s good, but on the whole, I think it is a bit expensive for what you ge

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersIt seems a bit weird to use a microwave and not have the LED display..
    It seems a bit weird to use a microwave and not have the LED display to show how long is left on the timer but I’m getting used to it. We’re using it in our caravan and it seems like the two were made for each other as the caravan is a bit old fashioned too. Very easy to use and everything is manual so it seems like there’s less to go wrong. Our old microwave was brilliant and all singing/all dancing but ended up at the local recycling after less than a year thanks to a faulty digital timer which rendered it unusable. None of that problem with this one with nice solid dial controls that are easy to read and operate.

    Good size and although the controls and door mechanism may be a bit retro the unit itself looks sleek and modern.

    This is a smart looking machine that performs well. No problems that I can identify. A little more expensive than my comparable Russell Hobbs machine at this time (probably due to the exchange rate), which is why I have not given 5 Stars. If the styling grabs you, it is probably worth paying the extra.

    Looks nice, works well, does its job and a good brand name too.
    A perfectly efficient microwave. The timer is a maximum of 30 minutes and there are a number of heat settings. The glass plate is removable for cleaning and with its mirror front it would also be good in a small kitchen to help with feeling of light and space.

    The ‘window’ for viewing the dish being microwaved is very small and, if placed on a usual level worktop, it requires the ‘chef’ to bend to look in. It would, therefore, be better sited within a unit at eye-level.

    Previously we would not have thought of ‘Tower’ as a brand for microwaves so this has now created that awareness for us (our pressure cooker was Tower over 35 years ago….!

    An effective, aesthetically pleasing microwave worthy of your consideration, especially for couples and singles.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersMy kind of microwave
    This is my kind of microwave, sleek design and not too big so doesn’t take up significant space. Easy to operate and for a technophobe like me, quite old fashioned, (for a microwave). I mean that as a compliment, as it’s easy to understand and to operate. A really good microwave, very impressive

    More good than bad.
    First, a few of points to watch. It is described as ‘large 20 litrres’ but the turntable plate is only 10″ diameter. Our preferred dinner plates are new-fangled square one’s which are 12″ corner to corner. This means that we can’t put a ready meal container on our normal dinner plates and heat the plate while the ready meal is cooking. Also, if the phone rings after we’ve dished out, we can’t put the whole plate back in the microwave to give it a 30 sec flash reheat. However, if we use our 10″ round plates, then there is no problem. The internal light only comes on while the microwave is cooking, and turns off when cooking is complete. Not a problem for the cooking, but a nuisance when cleaning it, as you can’t easily see the sides to make sure that any splattering has been totally removed – we just have to taker a little more care. The most irritating thing is that there is no start/stop button, so that means that cooking starts as soon as you move the timing dial off the off stop. You therefore cannot set up the timer carefully before pressing the non-existent start button. Unfortunately, the minute divisions are quite narrow on the single 30 min timing dial, so time to set it accurately without the cooking starting immediately would be easier. This seems like a whole load of negatives for a four star review, but providing you operate it within its limitations, the cooking is reasonably quick and even, and the turntable rotates at an even rate. Even the fact that it is only 800 watts, means that the sligthly longer cooking times compared with 900 watt alternatives means that it is slightly easier to set the slightly longer times. The unit is also compact enough to fit in a small kitchen provided that you can put it flat against a wall. So, more good than bad, hence the four stars.
