Russell Hobbs RHM1714B 17 Litre 700 W Black Digital Solo Microwave with 5 Power Levels, Digital Clock and Timer, 8 Auto Cook Menus, Automatic Defrost, Easy Clean

I love this microwave I've had the same one for about 8 years or more but the inside started to peel but for the time I've had it and the amount of time it's used so not bad so decided to get the same again so reliable and looks really good with the mirror on front and polishes up lovely 8 would highly recommend

No point me leaving at photo as it still looks brand new and I've had mine for years I've burnt out the magnetron three times now and replaced it but I love this microwave and rather than buy new one I just buy a new magnetron and fit it but I am an engineer I don't understand all these other reviews with people with rust I can only imagine that the old ones are better than the newer ones who knows maybe they just don't clean it or someone else in their family just doesn't clean it and leaves it's soaking wet you have to clean them at the end of the day it's a microwave is not a made and it does not say self-cleaning anywhere so don't be lazy and look after your microwave and I'm sure you will get years of pleasure from it😁

Great item and good value for the money

(review for Russell Hobbs RHM1714WC, sold by Amazon Nov2020). Microwaves don't seem to last long these days, so thought I may as well try a cheap one. At £55.99 this fitted the bill, and I'm pleasantly surprised to find it doesn't seem cheap or nasty, so first impressions are that it is amazingly good value.There is a separate page of safety info and then the manual itself gets to page 10 before the list of precautions finishes, leaving one thinking it may be safest never to plug the device in. There is also some info that I would have liked before purchase, like the large amount of clearance needed around it (approx 3" at sides and back and 12" above). However it is well written, in English, and uses a font size that is suitable for reading, which sets it several light-years ahead of some competitor's offerings.It took quite some time to set up the kitchen around the requirements, but once done it seems to work as expected. Very briefly a 'new' hot kind of smell but by the second use this was gone. I was hoping to just turn the dial and press go, like previous machines I've had, but this one selects the preset rather than time by default so another button needs to be pressed first; not ideal but easy enough to get used to. There are quite a lot of identical buttons which are labelled with modestly sized text, so (unlike my last model, which was clearer) reading glasses are needed to operate it.It seems to have quite a range of functions, more than many budget models, and so far has done everything I've tested it at. The only significant down-side is that the traditional 'ping' is loud enough to seem more like an alarm - and it goes off whenever a button is pressed, then 'four' times when it finishes heating, then four times again after a pause if one doesn't open the door in time (then opening the door also sets it off, though just the once). This might be useful for the hard of hearing, except it is also quite high pitched, but it has already been commented on by the neighbours (in an adjoining flat) and I've only had it a day; it really doesn't seem very suitable for early-morning breakfast time unless there is some way to shut it up that I've not seen yet.But overall very pleased with it for the price. If it will last as long as the previous microwaves I've had, which failed within months of the warranty expiring, then I shall consider it to be much better value.

Good quality and perfect size with a quality modern look.Recommended

Would recommend, easy to use.

Looks good and works aa expected. My last microwave stopped working and this was bought as a temporary fix. The quality is good.

For the price you’re paying it’s a really good product that is easy to use.
