Our verdict

A sensible fit for a dorm, studio or office that reheats meals and pops popcorn. Its modest wattage and small cavity mean slower cooking and no room for large dishes.

Overview

A turntable on a roller ring rotates food inside a ceramic enamel cavity so heat reaches it from every side. Digital button controls set the power level or start a reheat, popcorn, pizza or defrost program on this compact countertop unit.

Small footprint and simple presets cover the reheating and snacks a dorm or break room needs. Modest power stretches cooking times, and the cavity will not take a large casserole or a big platter.

Who it's for

Dorm rooms, break rooms and small apartments get a compact reheating station with presets for common snacks. Households that cook whole meals in the microwave need more power and a larger cavity.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 11 power levels for gentle reheating
  • Pizza, popcorn and reheat presets
  • Auto defrost program
  • Ceramic enamel interior
Cons
  • Modest 700 watts lengthens cook times
  • Small cavity limits dish size
  • Voltage not listed
  • 1 year warranty only

Performance notes

Cooking speed tracks wattage, so the modest power rating means longer times on dense foods. The turntable rotates food through the cavity to even out heating, and lower power levels let frozen or delicate food warm through without overcooking the edges.
