Title: shoddy and annoying
Review: Pros:It's powerful and pretty.Cons:Mine died shortly after the warranty expired.It has no number pad; you have to enter the cooking time by turning a knob. This seemed clever at first but turned out to be annoying because I could never quite get the hang of getting the time I wanted without a lot of fiddling. Would have been faster to just punch in numbers.The "quick min" button is not all that quick. Unlike most microwaves you still have to hit "start" afterwards. This is evidently because the engineers could not figure out a way to add time while the oven is running (which is a problem all by itself).The display is unreadable unless it is at eye level or above. Fine for a built-in over the stove or something, but this is a counter-top model...Finally, I got to hate being told "ENJOY YOUR MEAL" every time I used it. Maybe that works for the Japanese, but not for me.Did I mention it's pretty?
