    Good value for what it cost, but would not want to pay more for it. It looks and feels what it is. Cheap.

    Only reason I bought it because I had my credit card points redeemed for Amazon voucher. If I was paying for it then I would have got different one. Still a good microwave for quick warming the food and no fancy functions which you hardly use.

    So easy to use, no digital clock or buttons to fiddle with, which is just what I was wanting. Lovely little ‘bing’ when finished, no annoying beeping! Cooks quickly and evenly and happy with the quality. Would recommend to anyone wanting a simple, no frills microwave.

    Ordered Friday, delivered Monday. Very happy with this purchase, a straightforward simple to use machine.
    Easy clean stainless steel interior, so no enamel surfaces to lift or chip!
    Overall an excellent, value for money buy!

    All my new kitchen items are black and rose gold so this fitted in perfectly.

    Looks nice, works great. Only criticisms are the plastic dials and handle cheapen it a bit. Plus it’s more of a grey white colour than white. Otherwise happy with it as I only use for basic stuff so it does what I wanted it for.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersThis micro wave was ordered on the premise that it was suitable for the “vision impaired”. and there is no doubt that it is very easy except for setting the time. My wife has devloped Age Related Macular Degeneration and can’t see the timing marks on the dial. This, it seems to me could be put right by making the timing dial click the minutes as it is turned, enabling her to count the clicks.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersMy last Tower manual microwave gave me good service, but ultimately the interior rotted with rust. I paid a bit more this time for the stainless steel version, with the Tower 3 year guarantee. So far, so good!

    The problem with this cooker is the timer. The minute markings are so close together that it is tricky to use half minutes when required by the recipe. (This was not true with the timer on the cheaper model, which was reliable, accurate with enough space between the minute setting for half minute settings.)

    Another problem is that the timer on the new microwave cuts out early meaning that food is not cooked properly (a health and safety issue!). I decided to buy a accurate kitchen timer, rather than return a perfectly serviceable microwave that should give years of use, because of the flawed timer. Who needs the food poisoning?

    Otherwise, the microwave should give years of reliable service, so I’ve been generous in giving it four stars. If the inbuilt timer is important to you, then that would probably reduce to one star!

    Nice Microwave, but the timer dial doesn’t function well example: You put something on for a minute and it does less than 60 seconds so had to purchase a timer, apart from that decent Microwave and not a bad price.

    I bought this on the other sellers options , it was a return I think with a 1 inch mark . I gave it a wipe on the front and as you can see , perfect . I suggest always look at other purchase options as you may get a bargain for items .

    Arrived on time and in good condition. This is a nice straightforward simple to use device with a stainless steel interior, which is exactly what I wanted. No messing about with digital displays and buttons that do things you never need, just two knobs, one for power level and the other for the timer. As recommended in the handbook I zapped a cup of water a few times to ‘run it in’, but there was no smoke or funny smell. The timer seems accurate, and there is an easy to hear ‘Ding!’ when it is done. Another pleasant aspect is that by registering online (simple and hassle free) you can immediately extend the warranty to three years.
    Time will tell if it is reliable, but for the money I’m impressed so far. Recommended if you just want something basic but decent from a hopefully trustworthy brand. Well done Tower!

    Love this small microwave looks great . The only negative thing is about the delivery driver he just left the parcel on the door step and just drove off. Didn’t wait for me to get to the door he was in such a rush . I know they have limited time but it he was so fast and I had to struggle to pick it up

    I bought this due to its small size and the fact it matched my other kitchen appliances which are black and rose gold. Its the perfect size for my kitchen and doesn’t take up too much counter space. It has a few different power levels and is easy to use.

    The stainless steel interior makes it easier to clean and unlike painted interiors shouldn’t peel. The dial isn’t easy to tell time between the minutes, ie, if you need to cook for1 minute 30 seconds it is difficult to get the 30 seconds accurately. Otherwise good design and easy to clea

    Lovely microwave and easy got my sons to use the only problem is it doesn’t fit a normal size dinner plate in it, you have to tilt the plate to get it in which I thought was odd? I didn’t use a large plate it was just standard size so I doubt you’d get large plates in it. Other than that perfectly happy with i

    I absolutely love the attractive, vintage shape of this dishwasher.
    You just press the heat level required and turn the dial round
    for the number of minutes required – simple – who honestly needs more than that!

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersBit on the small side but for a smaller kitchen it’s perfect. I got it for the colours and I prefer dials to digital. Looks lovely. Heats evenly and well. Only problem for me was larger dinner plate you have to ever so slightly tip it to get in in to the appliance. Apart from this its spot on.

    Cute value microwave looks good.

    I found this device great, by the timer .It is a joke, you need a magnifying glass to set the time correctly ,this will discourage people from having one .I am pondering returning it.It is a pity stainless steel etc sadly let down by a stupid timer Control.It has started to malfunction on high power, just switched off 3 times
    it is working fine now but the timer switch seems to be a bit loose lot of free play wonderful to clean i have decided to keep it because i am 81 live alone thank god and rely heavily on a micro for my food i have a back up one digital but rusty inside. if this one throws in the towel it can be replaced by amazon who do a great job and there team of workers i would be lost with out them.

    For a no frills, simple microwave, this does it all.

    The timer is analogue, no fancy digi stuff to get your head around and it is exactly as it says. A microwave with functionality and style.

    Simple, easy and does what it is supposed to. Comes with microwave plate. Normal size, has all expected functions. What more can you ask for.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersLovely microwave, fitted the spec I was looking for. Simple to use, manual, no fiddling around with buttons etc. Nice size and stainless steel interior really nice. Generally use for heating food or making quick foods. Amazed at how piping hot food comes out – really really hot, this is impressive in comparison to my old microwave and just how I like my food to be.

  62. LouisaLudowici says:

     United Kingdom

    I don’t really tend to use the microwave for a lot of things, and certainly not fancy stuff, so my needs are pretty general and basic. I do rice, soften baked potatoes before the oven, soup, beans, steamed veg and that kind of stuff and this is perfect for all of those.

    It’s a 700w model, and 17l capacity. That’s more than enough for my needs. My previous microwave was a 900w one but I’ve not really noticed any difference with this one in that sense.

    Easy to use with only two dials. Some people will miss the functionality of an lcd timer window but to be honest after getting used to not having one with this it’s another thing that doesn’t really make much difference to me.

    All in all a good basic model without whistles and bells. Some people will want something a bit more I guess, but if it’s a simple microwave, well put together, that you want this is a great model.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our UsersI was happy with it but gradually the seal between the oval glass windows allowed contamination between the glass seals.
    Amazon have replaced the complete microwave when that arrived and worked ok.
    Found when looking at the replacement it had a white waveguard which the faulty one had not had fitted.
    Quality control had been lax at the manufactures

    Make sure everything is complete but pleased with it's performance.

    The microwave is good value and most importantly for me was the stainless steel lining. It’s easy to clean and far better than the painted linings that rust out far too quickly. If I had one gripe it would be the time dial, you put it as close to the time you want as possible but it’s not very accurate. I put it on the one minute mark and it went off after just 30 seconds. This is not good for heating food safely so I find myself putting the timer on longer just to make sure.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersI chose it for its analogue controls and stainless steel interior. It’s worked perfectly since I purchased it so I am very satisfied. A suitable purchase for those who don’t need the complication of a a high spec’ digital device. It’s not the cheapest microwave cooker but then it has got a stainless steel interior and that ensures durability with extended cosmetic appeal.

    This is a manual non-digital microwave, very easy to use with just timer and temperature controls. Hopefully it will last longer with fewer parts to go wrong. Very happy with it so far.
    Here we are 13 months later and the timer control has gone berserk and is very, very dangerous. Timer turns clockwise instead of anti clockwise and the temperature controls are now all set to high. It boils frozen food very, very quickly on defrost. Amazon and Tower appear to be completely ignoring the problem. Can’t get this dodgy timer problem sorted, getting the runaround no one is interested. Make no mistake, this is a fire hazard.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersDid a lot of research on this.
    After looking at combination grills I decided instead on a simple to use microwave, on the basis that there is less to break down as per reviews…reliability. Also wanted a smaller unit, that can still hold a larger plate and something that wasnt just another digital box but retro. Also wanted a stainless steel interior to minimise cleaning and surface deterioration/flaking – which I’d read is a problem with some other interiors after a while.
    This ticks all the boxes. Gave 4 stars as less than 5 minutes is very tricky to get on an analogue dial.
