TOSHIBA ML-EM09PA(BS) Small Microwave Oven with 6 Auto Menus, Mute Function & Child Lock, LED Lighting, Perfect for Apartment, 0.9 Cu Ft, 10.6 Inch Removable Turntable, 900W, Black Stainless Steel

The dimensions provided are accurate, which is a relief because this is a large microwave. It's worth noting that the power cable is positioned on the right edge of the rear and is relatively short. Be sure to have an outlet located either directly behind or to the right of the microwave for optimal placement.Performance-wise, the microwave operates quietly, which is a welcome feature in a busy household. The rotating tray's ability to return to its default position is a thoughtful touch—it saves you from reaching awkwardly across hot items to grab handles. The humidity sensor is another highlight, particularly effective when reheating dishes that include pasta, ensuring even heating without drying out the food.However, one minor drawback is the underpowered beeper. With my previous microwave, I could hear the completion alert clearly from the living room, but this model's beep is noticeably softer and easier to miss.Overall, this is a well-designed, large-format microwave that lives up to its promises. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and spacious option for their kitchen.

Just received this yesterday. I wanted a high watt microwave but it had to be small (to fit in my galley kitchen. Alot of them are 700 watts because they're small😒..but this one was 900 watts...perfect! Unpacked it..put it on the counter and it fit perfectly..measurements were spot on..18.7 inches wide.(which is what i was worried about). And I have to say,for a compact microwave it is really sharp looking..I got the black.but the FRONT looks more like a dark gray metallic..really pretty and high end looking. Overall,it works really nice,very easy to work everything and makes my kitchen look great! Don't hesitate..worth the money. (I did watch reviews on youtube and they were good).

Very nice little microwave. Clean and neat. Function buttons very easy to read. Much quiter than our old one but still noticeable when running. To open you have to push a childproof lever up while griping the handle. Not difficult at all but may take a little while to get use to. I taught my kids as my parents taught me what they can and can not do and never needed child proof devices on anything. Just thought i would throw that in.

Having had mine for less than a day, it hasn't broken. Yet. And it is BIG! Dig up the specifications for its size before you buy, to make sure you have room for it.At 1200 watts it packs plenty of power. It is not encrusted with too many "features" I don't need or want.The LED clock is bright but not overwhelming, and the interior lighting is good.My only gripe, so far, is the touch pad with the controls has little buttons you need to use, which are small, not backlit, and hard to see. If you have to have tiny little buttons, BACK LIGHT them so a normal person can see and touch them.I will be happy with this microwave, assuming it does not fail prematurely. We'll see.

No complaints. Works great. You just need to use caution with a microwave with this much power.

[UPDATE at end] I've owned many microwaves, was the first person I know to buy one, in 1974. People use to come over to try it, a modern marvel. And wonder of wonders, this is the only other microwave since that original one (a Gaffers and Sattler) that explains in the manual how to make creative use of aluminum foil in the microwave! I didn't know you could still do that. The purchase was worth it for that knowledge alone (I was an old hand at using foil- on the wings of chickens, with rolls, bread, things that cook too quickly compared to other parts of the meal). No scrimping on the packaging- it arrived in a heavy-weight box within a box and encased in styrofoam, so no chance of dents or damage, yet easy to unpack.Aesthetically I LOVE this. I fancy it has a chunky retro mid-century look to it, like what a food replicator looked like on the original Enterprise. I don't have the best eyesight and the buttons are big and clearly labeled- can see them without my glasses. Ditto with the digital display, bright green; the light inside is bright too. The handle is thick and solid in your hand, pleases me every time I use it (haven't had a microwave in years with an actual handle, SO much better, feels decisive, purposeful, kinesthetically pleasing). The operation is intuitive (for the most part) and basic, well-thought-out, satisfying. I'm coming from a fancy Panasonic unit with inverter technology that I was in love with, but as is apparently common with Panasonic microwaves it died after a few months. It's a trade-off- I much prefer the look and operation of this (for example, the Panasonic had no number pad) but it takes slightly longer to cook, but that's okay.Being able to turn the sound off is a blessing. I'm living in my vintage travel trailer at the moment and have two little finches that don't need to be awakened at all hours (they answer the beeps with chirps). Relatedly the door makes a rather loud but not unpleasant thunk when closed normally, but it can also be closed gently, more quietly when desired- after a week it's already second nature to me. The microwave when running is quieter than most. Also wanted to say I nearly sent this back because the power level button didn't work. What an idiot- when all else fails read the manual. You change the power level AFTER you enter the cooking time.So far I love this thing, and like the many other Toshiba products I've owned over the years, hope it lasts a good long time. (After my experience with the short-lived Panasonic I got the three-year warranty- a bargain at $6.) But if it dies or malfunctions I'll update this review. Thank-you Toshiba!UPDATE: I had a senior moment and forgot to put the frozen lasagna in the microwave. I manually set it for seven minutes and pressed start. I was doing other things in the kitchen and about five minutes in the microwave went dead. No display, no power, nothing. It was HOT inside. Oh great, I blew a fuse or WORSE, I thought. I couldn't find the owner's manual. I tried unplugging it, plugging it back in, nothing. No re-set button on the back. SO disgusted with myself. Thought I was going to have to have it serviced or replaced. About 15 minutes later it came back to life, after it cooled off, good as new. Thank-you Toshiba!!

Toshiba microwave arrived on time without damage. Appearance and performance as described. Particularly like option to silence alert (beeping) sound and easy to use child proof door latch. Recommend.
