First and foremost, the size is perfect for my needs. With a spacious 1.2 cubic feet capacity, I can easily fit large dishes and cookware, making it versatile for all kinds of cooking tasks, from reheating leftovers to preparing full meals.
The 12.4-inch removable turntable is a fantastic addition. It rotates smoothly, ensuring that my food is heated evenly from all angles. Plus, the fact that it's removable makes cleaning up any spills or messes incredibly easy.
One of the things I love most about this microwave is its sleek and modern design. The black stainless steel finish adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen countertop, and it's easy to wipe clean, so it always looks great.
In terms of performance, the TOSHIBA EM131A5C-BS doesn't disappoint. With 1100 watts of power, it heats up food quickly and efficiently, saving me time in the kitchen. The preset menu options and one-touch controls make it incredibly user-friendly, even for those who aren't particularly tech-savvy.
I also appreciate the sensor cooking function, which automatically adjusts the cooking time and power level based on the food's moisture level and weight. This ensures that my meals are always cooked to perfection, with no risk of overcooking or undercooking.
Overall, I couldn't be happier with the TOSHIBA EM131A5C-BS Countertop Microwave Oven. It's reliable, easy to use, and delivers consistently excellent results. Whether you're a busy professional, a parent on the go, or just someone who loves good food, this microwave is sure to become an indispensable part of your kitchen arsenal. Highly recommended!
Original review: I read a bunch of Amazon reviews before picking this microwave. It seems there are equal amounts of good and bad reviews for almost every model out there which surprised me. Couldn't find any model that people just raved about so I crossed my fingers and just hoped that this microwave I picked worked straight out of the box. Lucky for me, it did! I have now been using it for a little over a month.
So there are lots of pluses and a couple of minuses with this microwave. One of the pluses is that I found it easy to use. It's pretty self-explanatory and the buttons are fairly easy to figure out. However there is also a minus coming up. Kind of a big one. I think it is relatively easy to set the timer for the wrong amount of time. I figured that out after I just about set a piece of cornbread with butter on fire and smoke came billowing out of my microwave. Yes, facepalm. Not one of my best moments. I like to think that I am pretty tech-savvy and meant to hit 20 seconds and instead I hit the 2 which set it automatically for two minutes and didn't realize it. You actually have to hit the clock time button to bypass the presets. If you aren't used to this it is easy to accidentally mess it up. I also didn't double check it and well let's just say I had every window open in my place for the next four hours and fans running. Smelled like burnt popcorn. Lol. Not my most stellar moment.
Which brings me to the next good and bad thing. This is a fairly powerful microwave. I think actually it may be a little too powerful for my liking. Yes it does cook things very quickly but the downside is... Wait for it....that it cooks things very quickly. Ha. Basically, I think that it is easy to overcook your food. After getting used to it it hasn't been too bad but I definitely feel that I need to keep my eye on it instead of just forgetting it. That may just be because of the cornbread thing but just saying, I am not comfortable just leaving it to do is thing yet.
The last thing I'll mention is it is not a quiet microwave. I live alone so it really doesn't matter to me but if you're looking for something that isn't very noisy this is definitely not the microwave for you. The door opening and closing is really loud and even though you can turn off the beep I think just the mechanics of the machine will keep this from being the ideal choice for you. It is pretty loud when it is running too and occasionally makes a weird crackling noise. When this happens inevitably it makes one eyebrow go up. I look at the microwave for a moment, because it typically doesn't last very long, and ponder whether I am really supposed to be hearing that type of noise from said microwave. Still not sure.
Anywho, over all this model isn't too bad. However honestly if I had to choose over again, I think I might get one with a lower wattage. Good luck!
Top reviews from other countries
I've had this oven for 3 years now, and I couldn't possibly be happier with it. It functions well, it's really easy to use and clean, and best of all NO BEEPING. The silent operation of this oven is its best feature and the primary reason I ordered it. I know most people are probably happy to operate it with the beeping sounds, but if having the option to silence all beeping sounds is as essential to you as it was to me then this is your oven.
Once in awhile when the power goes out I'll have to reset the silent mode when I reset the clock, but other than that I never hear any beeping from it whatsoever. Not when the buttons are pressed, not when the cooking cycle is done.
I've seen some reviews saying it's loud when cooking, but it's no louder than any other microwave - I don't know what these people are talking about. All microwaves make some noise when cooking.
