    Great Micro Wave
    Uncomplicated and easy to clean micro wave but could be more powerful. Will buy this brand again in the future.

    Looks good, easy to use.
    Good product very easy to use. Looks great. If there was anything it’s that you cannot vary the power level, it’s only 800 watts of defrost.

    My previous microwaves all wore off at the turntable, the coating just peeled off, but this has no turntable so should last a lot longer.

    Overall good produc
    Nice and easy to use microwave, no need to set up. The flatbed is easy to clean since there are no rotary parts that must be removed and washed separately, just wipe with cloth or paper towel.

    I give it 4 stars only because there is no built in clock and you can’t change the power level when heating. Other than that it is excellent value for a flatbed under 150.

    Lovely looking microwave with easy pull mirrored door and 4 simple commands. The Flatbed is so easy to keep clean if you have any spillages. No turntable or glass dish to keep fixing like in my old microwave. It’s a bit difficult to see inside so if heating liquid keep checking it. I have also learnt to keep the door open for a while after heating to allow any steam out, as this is what ruined the inside of my old microwave (rusting). It’s slightly larger than my old microwave so make sure you check you have enough worktop to place it on. Mirrored door is not an issue if you use the handle so no sticky fingerprints. So much easier to use than the other microwaves with 10 or more buttons/functions which you never know how to use! Love it’s simplicity and style.

    At last a no messing microwave
    I love this microwave. I needed a new one, my last one having expired and I had never even heard of a flatbed microwave. After a little research on the very useful amazon reviews I decided that this was clearly the future.
    It is so beautifully simple that anyone can use it. No more messing about trying to find that power level and all the superfluous nonsense that any sensible person hasn’t got time for. I love the fact that you can put a large rectangular dish in there or microwave more than one dish at a time! Can’t imagine why this hasn’t been done much sooner in the commercial market. You barely need to read the instructions, just press and go. Mint.

    The Best Yet!
    The flatbed microwave is the best one we have ever had in 40 years..in fact since they first hit the shelves in ‘Bejams’.
    It’s a good size for starters.
    Secondly it’s incredibly easy to clean.
    Thirdly even us oldies can operate it without feeling we need a degree in technology. Easy peasy.
    Heats up and cooks perfectly.
    Looks the biz too.
    Very impressed and highly recommend

    Golden Review Award: 17 From Our UsersCooks, defrosts and looks stylish
    I bought one of these elsewhere (slipped up there, didn’t realise Amazon stocked it ) and was so impressed with it, I encouraged my parents to follow suit (from Amazon ). It’s simplicity is its selling point. All it does is cook and defrost. None of your fancy automatic cooking, etc, which usually fails anyway! Each press of the cook/defrost button adds 30 seconds to the time. If you want, say, 70 mins you just hold the button and it increases the time faster until you reach the desired time.

    It’s a flat bed – something that took some getting used to! – which means that you can utilise the full space. REMEMBER, though, that you cannot place plastics directly on the bed as it gets hot. It’s important to put plastic containers on a plate or something first, otherwise get used to using glass containers like I have.

    The oven itself is totally sealed (ie no exposed heating elements) so it’s ridiculously easy to clean.

    Finally, the mirror finish on the door adds to the modern style of the oven. I have read of people managing to smash this glass through clumsiness so again, be aware that it is fragile!

    Needless to say, I highly recommend this simple oven – no unnecessary bells and whistles – and my parents are getting on well with it too.

    Highly recommended and at a good price too.

    Microwave
    Hubby and I have bit the bullet and bought a microwave (haven’t needed one for the 6 years we have lived together). However, we have a baby due very soon, and have bought a microwave steriliser for the assorted feeding stuff. (We concluded that buying a microwave steriliser and a microwave would get more use than paying a similar cost for a steam sterilising unit just for baby things)

    Considering the high probability of us being sleep deprived when using this microwave, it only having 4x buttons is a bonus! I suspect our first few weeks may also involve re-heating food parcels dropped in by family 🙂

    We wanted a larger unit as the steriliser has a larger diameter than a standard dinner plate (friends with the same steriliser have warned us it doesn’t fit in their standard-size microwave).

    The flatbed design is great, no fiddly rotating glass plate. Super easy to clean the inside.

    It did arrive from Amazon in a stupidly too-large box with oodles of extra packing; but the product in the RH box is well protected for transit and nice and snug.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersVery easy to use, heats more evenly than old turntable microwave
    My previous microwave suddenly stopped working after many years so this was bought as a replacement. I wanted a really simple heat and defrost microwave, as I’d never used the grill/convection/autocook functions on my other (very expensive) one. I was intrigued by the idea of a flatbed one because I hoped it would be quieter (it is!). The controls are very easy to use, just about foolproof, and there are no dials or anything protruding other than the handle so it will be easy to keep clean. It works perfectly and heats/cooks more evenly than the turntable one I had. I tend to use it for heating up soup, making porridge, cooking vegetables and “baking” potatoes and it’s perfect for this. I’d say that it would be good for people who have problems with complicated instructions and controls. Others have mentioned that the 5 beeps when time is up can be annoying but I didn’t find them overly loud and the beeping was more effective than my previous machine’s single beep.

    Up to date Technology
    Well done Russell Hobbs for daring to go back in time when microwave ovens were simple, but bring the machine up-to-date with the latest ‘Flatbed’ technology. Flatbed microwaves have been about for many years in professional kitchens, but cost over 2000 a slice. At last we see this technology filtering down into the domestic kitchen. If you are looking for a new microwave oven and you open the door and see a turntable, close the door again and walk on by. This flatbed oven punches well above its 700Watts and is as good as a 1000Watt oven with a turntable. So easy to use, with just two modes Cook and Defrost, who needs anything else? Those over-complicated units capable of doing fancy things that most people never use, when all you really need is to press a button and cook. Remember though, like any other microwave, the more you put in it the longer the cooking time will be. You can get more in this oven because without a turntable you an put multiple items in side by side and it still cooks all over without going round and round. Well done Russell Hobbs and a well deserved 5 Stars from me.

    Best microwave we’ve had to date. This is the first one we’ve had without a turntable and it’s great. It has more space inside and no issues with things not being able to turn. It heats evenly and is quick and easy to clean. The controls are easy to understand and use without needing to go back and read the instructions. The mirror finish is sleek and designer in appearance which has raised some positive comments from visitors. Very happy with the over design and product. I don’t intend to get another turntable type microwave ever again.

    Generally pleased.
    Large. Can take large dishes/containers. Does not always cook evenly, particularly for items placed away from the centre of the cooker, although this can be solved by moving everything around halfway through the cooking process. Generally pleased.

    After several months use, I would say that all the above still holds true but experience of using other microwaves has accentuated the drawbacks of this one. Although it is large, it is comparatively underpowered for its size – so you can put a lot in it, but the more you put in the longer it takes to cook (which defeats the object of it a bit). Also, the more you put in the more uneven the cooking seems to be, compared to similarly sized ovens with a turntable, so we tend to put less in (which means we would have been just as well off with a smaller and cheaper turntable one).

    Good size for a family of 4 without taking up too much counter space. Lack of a spinning plate is a real boon! You can use square plates, bigger dishes etc. Also means you’re not having to continually re-seat the plate onto its runner. Should be much easier to clean too.

    Good microwave. Simple and works very well. We like the fact that the display switches off when not in use. I think it is advisable to turn food at some point when cooking – because of lack of turntable some food can stay cold on one side.
    The number 1 on the digital time display played up within a couple of weeks, and now shows only the bottom half of the figure. It’s a bit annoying – but doesn’t affect the efficiency and not worth sending back for.
    PS. Stopped working completely after 8 months. However, rang Amazon and new microwave – same model – arrived next day and old one taken away. Full refund. Very pleased under circumstances.

    Elegant simplicity.
    First impressions are great. It’s sleek and elegant, and if all you want is a simple microwave to quickly reheat food with minimal fuss then this is the one. If you have never had reason to change the power setting of your microwave nor used any of the functions on your old microwave besides hitting time/start/stop, then this unit is targeted precisely at you. By giving up features you don’t use, you will get a nice easy-clean flatbed unit with no moving parts at a very reasonable price point. For a 800W unit it’s certainly heating faster than I would expect too. Smaller plates of food are often piping hot within just one minute. I will say that I have gotten better results for bowls of soup with the old turntable microwave but I would tend to prefer the stove top for liquids anyway. I will call out that one area in which it does not perform quite so well but for regular plates of of food, I have had very good results so far. On the whole, a great buy.

    This is a simple easy to use microwave. It is easier to use being a flatbed as you don’t have the problem of the turntable keep coming of the lugs and it also gives you more room especially for oblong dishes as they don’t need room to turn round inside. It is also easy to clean on the inside. The light gives good viewing of the cooking and it cooks well.
    The only downsides are it shows all the fingerprints on the outside and it rattles when it is cooking {I assume it is because the dish is directly on the metal base} these are only minor issues and I haven’t knocked any stars off for them as I still think it is a great microwave and would recommend it.

    Also just for reference it says in the manual that it needs 30cm clearance above the microwave and 7.5cm at the sides which I didn’t see anywhere online before buying.

    Best of all, no stupid little plate to keep coming off its runners!

    Great microwave. Nice flat bed, no turntable. And the controls are near perfect. It’s so easy to set the time for defrost (40% power) or full microwave. It defrosted 400g of chicken breast portions beautifully this weekend, and has worked equally well for cooking veg side dishes like peas or sweetcorn.

    I think they could have reduced the controls to three. I would prefer the microwave to come on automatically two seconds after the last change to the time. But I’m sure I’ll get used to hitting the on button in time. Not enough of a quibble to detract from the 5* rating I’m giving it.

    One big advantage over our old machine (an all-singing, all-daning combo microwave/oven/grill which we never used in the other rmodes) is that there are no ventilation slots on the top that have to be kept clear.

    Simple
    Our last microwave was on it’s last legs, so it was time for an upgrade.

    We wanted a simple, flat bed microwave. These are great, as you can fit rectangular sized dishes in easier than in a normal microwave.

    The functions on this are great. They’re really simple and easy to use.

    Golden Review Award: 33 From Our Usershe best freestanding microwave in the world .. perfect ! almost .
    My old microwave was a russell hobs 700 w manual with 2 dials and turntable . very basic … it was a light build.. it was ok but when my dad asked if he could have it i jumped at the chance to upgrade. Initially I thought I’d get a panasonic but when i really thought about the functions that i wanted in a microwave i realised that it would be a waste to get a combi or one with many functions… then I discovered “flatbeds” which immediately appealed to me and after a lot of reading reviews and narrowing it down it seemed that this model was the best one for my needs. I was cautious because it was another russell hobbs but the build quality and weight of this one is much better than my last one. it’s also slightly more powerful than my last one , only by 100 watts by it shows. no turntable .. i love it ! i’m very happy with my choice but have to deduct one star for the overly loud 5 beeps it makes when its finished .. I managed to silence the buzzer myself but a simple on off button for the beeper would be an extremely popular addition.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersThe return of the flat beds.
    My very first Flatbed microwave oven was a Philips model, the only one of that design on the market at the time. It lasted 20 years or more. When it finally broke down there was nothing to replace it apart from the cheap shoddy, rotary, space greedy models that became the norm. I bought three all told, each barely lasting it’s minimum guarantee period. At last the flat beds are back, only one prob, made in you know where, remains to be seen if it matches the quality of my original.

    I do like this produc
    I do like this product. It is all it sets out to be – it has four straightforward programmes and does exactly what you wanted. However the simplicity doesn’t limit its use in the kitchen. I have had microwaves which many functions but found that I simply didn’t use them.

    ice looking machine
    ice looking machine, not so noisy as the rotary plate type being a flatbed, easy to use. think I noticed on purchase that it uses a higher consumption of electricity. (everyday use,) I have not noticed at this time.

    Golden Review Award: 32 From Our Userswhy can't all electronic devices be as simple to use as this one
    We have had microwave ovens with digital controls for very many years but they have always, always had functions that we didn’t need and never used. This is the ideal microwave as the controls are very simple eg cook or defrost. The lack of turntable doesn’t seem to be a problem as the food is evenly cooked. highly recommended
    One thing to watch is the external dimensions as this is a large unit. It also needs clear space above, behind and at the sides in addition to the dimensions of the unit itself

    Great microwave I wanted this because it doesn’t use a turntable, Isra doddle to clean, it’s very efficient no silly plates that constantly come off to worry about. Heats food well, and is so easy to work just a couple of simple buttons

    I bought mine for 80 from Costco on special offer in a silver colour but it is a great microwave. I’ve had it for a few months no with no problems, it is sleek and very easy to clean. There is no glass plate, which means that the food is cooked evenly and there is more space inside for round or even square plates. The functions are very simple for all the family including a five-year old to use. You really do not need all of those extra functions that they put on other microwaves, do not convince yourself that you do!
