Our verdict

A reliable small-footprint microwave for tight kitchens, quiet in daily use, with one easy-to-miss setup step, peeling the protective film off the button panel, that trips up new owners.

Overview

A 0.9 cubic foot, 900 watt countertop microwave with 10 power levels, six one-touch presets, interior LED lighting, and a child safety lock, sized for apartments, dorms, or a break room.

This is Farberware's compact stainless steel microwave rather than a full-size kitchen unit, built to fit small counters without giving up multi-stage cooking or weight-based defrost.

  • 900 watts, 0.9 cu ft capacity
  • 10 power levels, multi-stage cooking

Who it's for

Good for apartments, dorm rooms, or a secondary kitchen where counter space is tight. Not the choice for households that regularly cook full meals in the microwave and want maximum wattage or interior volume.
