Customer Reviews for Farberware Professional 1.3 cu. ft. 1100-Watt Countertop Microwave in Platinum with Smart Sensor Cooking

Very good value for the price.

complicated to run--door latch will make you bleed

Bought it almost 2 years ago now for a team at work. Still running strong, no issues. Super fast heat up, used by 10+ people several times a day. Buying another one for a family member.

Very nice so far. Attractive, but not gaudy or conspicuous. Works very well. Will beep 5 times when heating is complete, but will stop if you open the door before the beeps are finished. Door opens by handle which is nice. To keep it from sliding out of position I used a small silicone pad under each foot. Good traction now. Nice appliance!

It's very nice, the inside is large enough for 2-quart container while the outside is small enough for the countertop.

Excellent microwave. Would definitely buy again.

Overall, I am pleased with the microwave. It preforms very well. I do have two issues with it though, but neither are real deal breakers. The first is the size. Despite being 100 watts less than my old microwave and the cheapest 1100-watt microwave I could find, it is not that much smaller than the 1200-watt microwave built 15 years ago that I needed to replace. Given the design of the kitchen in my house, I have to put it in the same place the old one was, which meant it was plugged into the same circuit as the refrigerator. I know all too well why you don't put the microwave and refrigerator on the same circuit, but I don't have a choice with my house. There is only one other spot I could put it, but the toaster oven is there, and it's better the toaster oven is there because it doesn't make enough noise to know that if it trips the circuit. At least a microwave makes enough noise should it trip the circuit, you notice that things got quite in the kitchen. That's why I bought a new microwave: the old one kept tripping the circuit. The second issue I have with this microwave is a feature I thought every microwave had. This one does not have a reminder beep after it finishes that sounds every minute or so after it is done. So, I have to use a smart speaker to set a timer, which comes in handy for foods you want to sit several minutes because you know it will take that long before it is cool enough to actually eat (eg those little microwave lasagnas). There's also the whole getting use to the button layout, but that's different on every microwave for some reason. Overall, I am pleased with the microwave.

Arrived in good shape no damage. Setup and is working great all I have to do is learn all the features. Farberware seems to have the best Micowave on the market by all the reviews I've read of all on market.

Excellent! Best feature is the potato setting. This microwave can detect when the potato first emits some steam, and then sets the appropriate remaining cook time. Getting sweet potatoes cooked (with their variable sizes) was always a problem for us in the past, now all the guesswork has been eliminated. Express buttons are also cool: just press 1, 2, or 3 and it starts cooking for 1, 2, or 3 minutes. LOVE this microwave!

The microwave performs well and adds to the beauty of the kitchen.

This is my 3rd microwave in 5 years and the noisiest. The glass tray inside rumbles and the magnetron and associated electronics are quite noisy, compared to the other microwaves I have owned. Other than that it,does the job.

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

We have only had the microwave for a very short time, but so far it has performed really well. It is easy to use, the board is pretty self explanatory. The only reason I have not given it 5 stars is that we have had it for such a short time that I would not expect anything to have gone wrong. Based on the performance up till now, I would definitely recommend this microwave.

All the features I was looking. Works great. Time will tell on the durability.

Love it.I'm trying to think of something to complain about. It's big, sturdy, the buttons are obvious. The carousel seems effective enough. Couldn't recommend it more. You will not find something like this at your local Wal-Mart. And it's shinier than the pic makes it look.

Exactly what we wanted. Looks nice, easy to use, works great

I like most people use it to warm up food. It does the job perfectly, even not upset my old was broken. What a huge advancement in microwaves.

Microwave came in excellent condition and works fantastic. Arrived sooner than expected.

Working smooth.

This is an all-around great microwave Cooks evenly runs quietly and the interior has a contrasting color so any splatters are easily seen and cleaned up

Excellent. Used for 2 months so far. Nice features: easy to read buttons, 30 second heat, express cook buttons for 1, 2 and 3 minutes, Special order - wait time 2 weeks. Use instructions visible on unit when you open the door. My price was $ 150 two months ago. Sold on the key pad being legible. LED light. This is the best.

Its just a great microwave and I love the white with stainless steel instead of the usual stainless ith a black glass in the .door

Nice looking microwave! And quiet!

Pro: Vey pleased with the performance. Only con: It has a huge foot print that I was not expecting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this microwave to try out for free. I didn't realize how old and worn my other one was until I tried this one! I absolutely love how it heats and cooks my food.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Faberware 1.3 cubic Feet Microwave Oven with Smart Sensor Cooking a few weeks ago, and I love it!! First of all it looks great with my other stainless steel appliances, and the features are awesome!! It has time defrost and weight defrost which I love, smart sensor cook menu for your everyday foods, a quick 30 second button to heat something quick, also a kitchen timer, so many great features, too many to mention, I would definitely recommend this microwave!! It's Great!!!
