A great microwave but only bought earlier this year and already the light bulb has failed. Is there any way to replace it? I’m shining a torch into the oven to check that food is not boiling over.
Easy to set up and use and so far is doing what it’s paid to do.
Early days, but no issues to note.
Looks good and seems well built and stylish.
Colour is “cotton white” which is very close to the Farrow and Ball “all white”. Controls are pretty intuitive although I never use the pre-sets. Although I have a bit of a concern about the longevity of the “Diffuser Cover” which covers the microwave outlet inside the machine and feels like a bit of decorated cardboard (hence the 4 stars), at present a Happy Bunny.
Got this for a bargain during the Prime Day event from the Warehouse. Its come in fantastic condition! And it still stakes my large dinner plates but somehow is taking up less space than the old one.
Really good value for money, we really use for this for basic functions and have found this to be fantastic. In fact I have just ordered another one for my mum!!!!
Stunning to look at. The wood effect is perfectly done. My only issue was that the adjustable feet didn’t adjust, so I had the improvise to stop it rocking, took me 2 minutes
Decent microwave functions (though 90% of them are not needed) but LED screen stopped working. This means that product is poor value for money considering there is little (if any) added quality for the money. I would opt for something else with a longer all around lifespan.
Does exactly as it says re item description, I love the colour , although the handle is completely different to kettle in the same range . But , I laughed so much at the actual size , and to open the door you have to grip the microwave with other hand or you’ll physically move it across the unit . I’m going to keep it and see how it goes . Photo show’s it in comparison to the one I’m giving away
Functions fine, but we do get the slight “squeezing” noise when it turns, as some others have described. A slight downside is the incredibly loud ending beep. Our house is an open plan bungalow and so anyone using it when others are in bed WILL wake people up. We’ll get used to it…..
It’s a very nice addition to the kitchen and looks quite stylish unlike some of the boring looking things on the market
It heats your food just fine and works as it should
The only complaint I have is it isn’t as powerful as my last one but that’s not the devices fault that’s on me because I knew what I was buying
Food takes a min longer to heat but still it works great and is a modern trendy addition to my kitchen .
It is very simple for the price. The clock is hard to set it up. There is no easy way to do it? Perhaps adding a clock option in the menu. Very simple, it should be cheaper!
Bigger, better. Lovely colour, heats up food quiet quick even on 1min cook time. Only pause button went in one side when pushed. Comes out when pushed again. Doesn’t affect function of button. I love my new microwave
I purchased a set of kettle and toaster to go with it in a new kitchen. It all looks nice but after use it is not that sturdy compared to other brands.. The ‘wood’ features are printed not real wood in case you wondered.
The outside cleans up well the inside mostly cleans up easily but be careful of a small piece of ‘card’ (yes card) that is printed in silver ink and is very fragile -it’s on the right side, top right, it needs to be in place and will obviously stain and hard to clean. I wondered what it was and why such a fragile part of the design.
Bought to match all the other items in the Swan collection..
I got this one to compliment my other grey/wood Swan kitchen items and was not disappointed. It looks great and works well.
Bought in a hurry but I’m really pleased with the design as well as functionality.
Nice looking and quite a small footprint. There are a couple of things off though. Even on full power this microwave is about 50% less powerful than our ten year old one it’s replacing. Cooking times are much higher. Also the tray makes a squeezing noise as it turns. But hey, it matches my wife’s toaster now, so she is happy.
This is so handy and quick best microwave for price range
A good quality product and easy to use.Very pleased
Had power issues from start and now doesn’t heat anything on any setting/power
Very bad considering the price we paid for this
100 microwave stopped working 2 years later. In last 18 years I have bought only 2 cheap 35 worth microwaves, none of them broke. At this rate the quality of “Scandinavian look”18 years will cost me 900 only on microwaves. Not to mention all the effect on the environment – binning them every two years! Worst investment ever!
Great looking microwave, love the soft touch matte effect and the wood effect brings something wonderful to its look, however I wish someone had reviewed this against the rest of the Nordic Slate Grey range as the colour difference is vast. The microwave is darker wood and a different grain completely to the kettle and toaster and the ‘Slate Grey’ is a few shades darker. lucky for me my microwave is on a different worktop at the opposite side of my kitchen so it’s not glaringly obvious but if you plan on having the range side by side it is something to be mindful of before purchasing.
All in all a great little microwave and worth the price

Been using for about 6 weeks now, looks smart and performs as expected. Seems a bit plasticier than our old Panasonic but works perfectly.

Not sure about the bad reviews here. I’ve had this microwave for a while, don’t really like them but bought it to heat up these fitness meals that must be heated in microwave.
Been using it regularly for 6+ months now, no problems at all. It also looks nice unlike most other microwaves. Was shocked about how much it cost but better than a dirty ass ugly microwave isn’t it. It’s easy to clean.

This doesn’t do anything particularly special as microwaves go, but that’s just fine. In my case it replaced a boggo Tesco microwave that started playing up and I fancied something a bit stylish. I’ve no interest in being matchy-matchy and already have a good kettle and toaster so won’t be adding the rest of the Nordic range to this.
It’s pretty compact. It fits one of my massive dinner plates just fine but I wouldn’t mind a little bit more height, it’s right on the cusp for heating a packet of rice or a big jug of something. On the plus side it fits nicely in the space vacated by my tiny former microwave.
The buttons all make sense and are nice and tactile and the mirrored front doesn’t get too grubby, it’s easy to wipe down.
Problems are really minor. The beep’s pretty obnoxious, the clock can’t keep time and occasionally I hear a squeak/creak as the plate rotates.

Bought the whole set. Kettle, toaster and Microwave when I moved to my new place. Super happy with this purchase. Slightly to expensive but I won’t be buying another set hopefully for a very long time. Would highly recommend

perfect delivery. super fast and efficient. however, a part of the microwave came loose inside it and in the manual it was written that I should make sure it was securely fastened. I snapped it but I don’t think it could be loose 🙁

I just liked the look of it. It does all it should do and fits in well with other equipment. Highly recommended

Very pleased with this purchase- I would call it a warm white and it blends nicely with my cream colour kitchen units. The handle is quite a dark oak colour. Takes a large Denby dinner plate for a small microwave. Easy to use & much smaller than previous microwave.

Nice little micro , easy to use and looks great, perhaps not as powerful as I expected it seems to take a little longer than my last one when heating fiod
Easy to use and works well. The light inside is pointless as you can’t see anything through the door. Hard to clean and the coating to sides and handle seem like they could be scratched off at any careless moment. Your paying for the looks not an advanced microwave.
Stylish. Looks good in kitchen.
Only used it a handful of times. No instructions were provided.
Looks great but there was a mark on the handle, which was disappointing, so took one star off, otherwise would have been 5-star.

just what I needed, matches the kitchen with style. along with the Toaster and Kettle, Wish there was a “Digital” slow cooker to match, along with utensils. I think the utensils only come in grey
I had to email the company to figure out how to set the timing but they responded quickly. It says differently on the manual that came with.
It looks very nice on the kitchen counter, is easy to clean, and good value too. The surface is matte grey and has a nice feel to it. It seems like it could be scratched easily though, but hasn’t happened yet in 2 months and I’m the sort that use and abuses. No complaints at all!
Very pleased with this microwave. I downsized and had no built in microwave but prefer this sitting on worktop. I only ever used a microwave to heat things up despite having an all singing all dancing one before so this is perfect. It’s simple to use and has more functions and I’ve actually used the defrost mode with this although I need to read the instructions to do more. Knowing me I’ll still just use it mainly for heating up beans etc !

First one barely worked a few weeks, but did get a replacement which was good news. The new one seems to currently be behaving.
This is another case of a product of this range not quite being right. Items that was microwave safe for all my old microwaves seemed to upset this one, be careful of any product that might have any metallic content going inside, including food apparently.
The digital display went whack and even resetted itself or even turned off.
My replacement seems to be working OK, but it’s a bit sad when my newest microwave is so sensitive I have to stop using products my old microwaves happily heated up without a problem.

Got this to go with other things in the Nordic range so you pay a bit more for the look. Practically it does what every microwave does but looks nice while it’s doing it. Digital settings are a bit fiddly but I only use it for heating things up so i haven’t bothered to master it!

Beautiful looking design suits our kitchen perfectly.
I think It’s a bit on the small side personally though. A large Starbucks cup for example will fit inside but the door opening is so narrow (in height) that you have to tilt the cup, potentially spilling your Caramel Brule Latte in the process!
I also think that the 800watt power rating is a little over stated – our old 800w microwave seemed a little faster/hotter, don’t get me wrong, it’s there’s not a huge difference, I don’t have a ‘proper’ way of testing its power output, I’m not “comparing eggs with eggs”, so I might be doing it an injustice.
Overall it is a great little “mee-cro-wa-vay” as Nigella Lawson likes to say

I absolutely love this microwave. I read loads of microwave reviews and this seemed to be overall the best. I went for the green colour. The door has a mirrored effect so it looks really good. The microwave is so easy to use and I am absolutely delighted with it. Also when I open the microwave door, it stays firm on the unit so the weight balance is good. I highly recommend the microwave and it was a really good price and value for money.

This microwave looks really nice, works well, and is value for money. I would give it 5 stars, but had to give it 4 because the clock is fast, very fast. After only 1 month it was fast by 4 minutes. So after a year that translates to an astonishing 48 minutes! How can you get the clock wrong? It’s the most simple thing to program (being a programmer, I know). Now I’m stuck with resetting it manually every month.
I appreciate the clock is a secondary function, but in a kitchen with a few clocks, it’s nice to have them all synchronised.
Other than that, very good, small and modern microwave.

This microwave has been great so far. I’ve been using it for about 6 weeks and can’t find much to fault it. Defrosts and cooks as well as I’d expect a microwave to cook. I’ve made jacket potatoes, cooked veg, scrambled eggs and defrosted food.
It is a little hard to see inside the microwave at the stuff that’s cooking but no big deal. Downside is you can’t change the volume of the beeps when it is done as they are pretty loud!
OK, I was swayed by the look of this microwave because most microwaves are, let’s face it, plain ugly! This one is super stylish, but not at the expense of its usability. Simple button and dials, and after reading the instructions a few times, I now understand what does what! It’s not a huge microwave either, so looks neat on the counter top, but has large enough capacity for our needs. It’s not the cheapest microwave around, but it’s certainly value for money.
I really like the look and feel of this microwave and people often compliment the look of it. It has a ceramic grey coating and the wood effect surfaces are slightly rubbery but has a softer touch than hard plastics and feels premium. I would say is the ease of use could be a bit simpler but overall very happy with it. Has worked perfectly so far, will update this review if i have any problems.
I wanted a compact, simple, easy to use and relatively cheap microwave that would blend into our cream and wood kitchen. This fits the bill. It has a button for 30 seconds microwaving, a button for 1 minute microwaving and you can use the dial to increase or decrease the time once it’s running too. It has several power settings so you can decrease it for defrosting etc. There are some preset menus which I would never use but all microwaves seem to have this feature which I find pointless. Have been using a few weeks and it’s going fine so far.
Update…. I’ve noticed that the digital clock gains a minute every few days, so I have to alter this whenever it gets too inaccurate. Slightly annoying.

It has several power settings so you can decrease it for defrosting etc. There are some preset menus which I would never use but all microwaves seem to have this feature which I find pointless. Have been using a few weeks and it’s going fine so far.
Update…. I’ve noticed that the digital clock gains a minute every few days, so I have to alter this whenever it gets too inaccurate. Slightly annoying.
We bought one of these in cream/wood finish primarily on looks. No other microwave adds to the aesthetics of a kitchen like this does. I also love the fact that it has tactile buttons, i.e. raised buttons that are easy to press and NOT those annoying hard press sunken things you get on other microwaves.
The dial is also a lovely addition. Most of us use a microwave for 2 or 3 things. Press the express button to get 30 seconds on the clock and then you can twist the dial to increase that to 1 min or 2 min (in 10s increments), which to me is much more satisfying than repeated button pushes.
The construction of this is absolutely on par with anything else. Samsung pr whatever I’ve no doubts about that. Any concerns anyone has raised about moisture or anything like that would apply to any other microwave.
