FarberwareFMWO11AHTBKB 1.1 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Countertop Microwave Oven

Very powerful, so less cooking time needed; but still works smooth and silently. Spacious inside, very well constructed; Its shinny appearance makes the kitchen look more elegant! A very important Feature: when it finishes cooking, it keeps the door locked, so no child or demential relatives will face the risks of getting burned.

Nice size unit for a family. Not as compact as I thought but is not too big so I kept it. Works well and gets the job done. Is also attractive and has a lock feature for little ones who may be curious so they don’t spill hot food or liquids on them which you can leave enabled or turn off. Nice feature I thought. I also like the fact of the inside color being gray and NOT white! The white gets ugly over the years!

My old microwave finally gave up the ghost after around 13-14 years of pretty decent service. I mostly warm up meals and made-for-microwave entrees, and of course the obligatory batch of popcorn from time to time. Saw this pop up and it had pretty good reviews. Plus, I've owned Farberware products going back decades. I still have a Farberware Percolator coffee-maker that's probably pushing 40 now, and a small countertop convection oven that I've been using almost daily for 16+ years. So I'm pretty cool with the brand.It has a much smaller footprint than the old microwave, but curiously has pretty close to the same sized heating chamber for capacity. This is rated for 1000w, and it definitely warms/cooks things much faster than the old unit. I can cook a full bowl of popcorn in 3 minutes in this one, whereas it took 4:30 in the former microwave. The front panel is sleek and simple, and for most things it'll do just fine. If you want to warm something for 5 minutes, you just push the 5 button on the pad and walk away. It takes care of the rest. However, I think it's unusually fiddly when you want to input a very specific cook time, like 3m20s. Yes, you can do it. But you have to go through this whole process of setting the power level first, then inputting the total cook time. It's just a bit of extra keypresses when you need a very particular cook duration.It also seems a bit noisier to my ears than the old unit. Not necessarily standing under a jet engine noisy, but it's definitely noticeable. I got used to it within the first few days, and it's not that big a deal since I live alone, but if you're given to late night kitchen raids and want to avoid waking the wife and kids, this one is going to thump and hum a bit.For under $100, I have no complaints. If it holds up as long as my other Farberware items, I should be set for the rest of my days. And if not, this didn't break the bank, so it's all good. For the cost and the efficiency I gave it 5 stars, with the caveats about the time input and noise. If you can put up with those, it's a great value.

I love my new Farberware Countertop microwave oven! I bought the red, which looks amazing in my kitchen and matches some of my other appliances. It has 1,000 watts and fits nicely on my countertop - not too small/not too large. And the price was right - only $109. To set the timer on "seconds," push the "Time Cook" button, and then the number of seconds you want and push "Start" (it took me a minute to figure this out.) Now, the only thing I'm NOT crazy about, is that it beeps loudly, about 5 times in a row, at the end of cooking, but it I doubt I will be losing sleep over it. Overall a classy, cool look and functions well.

This Micro-wave replaces my 8 year old Panasonic that suddenly conked out on me. So far so good, the Micro-wave is relatively quiet and the inside light is pretty bright. It is not as powerful as my old MW, 1000 watts vs 1200, but it's good enough for my needs, plus it looks good. The color red matches my Toaster and blender. I appreciate the dark grey interior rather than the typical white interior that stains easily and becomes an eye-sore after a while. Good price for what you get !

The color is why I bought this, I admit. But also gside that, its a great oven. Its very quiet-i wonder if its on sometimes. Its 1000 watts which is perfect. Its easy to use if you e ever used a microwave. Which makes me so der why s9meone doesn't design the keypads better? The layout for one but the ability to differentiate buttons better. I never use “potato” “pizza” and all those settings. But theyre on top, for example.Lots of roomindidecand a nice bright light versus a dim one that does nothing. Theyre put there. Its easy to clean, too.One thing that drives me crazy is the loud “ker-chunk” when the doors closed. That could be improved in 2025.Overall though it’s a great value and oven. And great color.Edit: it’s now may 9, 2025. The clock no longer keeps remotely accurate time. It goes way off in a matter of minutes. It makes me wonder if the cooking timer is accurate now.

Good microwave 1000 watts. Control panel is a little overdesigned, but the technology is there. Great product, best price for a superb brand. FARBERWARE it's Far better as far as wear and tear go than the rest, even than the more expensive ones. Its a 1000 watt microwave as advertised.
