Galanz GLCMKA07BKR-07 Microwave Oven, LED Lighting, Pull Handle Design, Child Lock, Retro Black, 0.7 cu ft

This is the perfect sized undercounter microwave for our RV. The child lock feature is a plus, and we really like the retro look of this product. It's ideal for small meals, which works for the small area in our bus. it is not too noisy, and there are several power levels to choose from when warming up certain foods. It isn't too complicated to use, and it comes with a manual that helps you to set the time and power settings. We also enjoy the red color! I would recommend this unit, especially if you have limited counter space! The price was also a determining factor.

While the expensive stainless steel, convection oven, and overhead stove vent, microwave, lost its microwave function everything else works. That likely means the Magnetron has failed. It could mean the diode has failed too, but either case has too much labor involved to repair. I looked at having a new one installed, but those big box stores that do it require a specific vent size and refuse to do any modifications, so you can be left with a mess dealing with contractors. The good news is except for the microwaves themselves every other function works. I can even use the convection oven feature if needed. Still, I need the convenience of a microwave. Thinking about it a bit I remembered I have a large countertop oven on my prep table. This particular model fits perfectly on top. I bought a heat-resistant mat to prevent slippage of the microwave feet and installed it out of the box in five minutes. While much smaller and less powerful than my old unit, this fits most of the things I use a microwave for. Heating water, melting butter, small frozen dinners, reheating pizza and sandwiches, it does them all fine. The price of this was fantastic as it cost roughly one tenth of the cost of my old unit, and less than the trip charge a local repair facility would charge me to evaluate a repair estimate. I like the retro look and the simple controls although there is a bit of a learning curve. My old unit had mostly intuitive buttons, so selecting power levels and presets was easy. I never bothered with the manual on my old unit, but I've had to access this one a few times for the special timed cook, reheat, defrost and other settings. It's not overly complex, but you do need some information. I laminated a card with the basic settings I'll use and attached it with a magnet to my fridge. That should help. despite less power most things I've used it with cook nearly as fast and as complete as the old unit. Recommended.

Ok, so I have only had this for a few days, but so far I love it. I'm a single older woman, and it wasn't as heavy as my old one that was turning on all by itself, or changing the time when I had food or water in it. That was dangerous, so I decided to get a smaller unit that was easier to use. I dont cook many things in it, so I dont need all the fancy buttons. I just wanted to turn a dial for the time and push a button! And that's what this one does, just like the one I had 30 years ago. I love it. It's also a pretty color, so that's good. It's not very noisy at all, looks easy to clean, unlike others I have had. I also like that it wasn't expensive. The buttons are really simple and easy to understand. Oh, and the light on the clock isn't super bright.

I recently went traveling to a place where I'd be for several weeks, but it had no microwave. So I went ahead and ordered this Galanz model. Advantages: Not super-high power draw (900w rated), so not much chance of tripping breakers. Just big enough for a dinner plate. The child controls can be disabled, although the instructions they provided for doing it weren't accurate. It certainly cooked well enough for my purposes, and while it was loud when it first turns on, this quiets almost immediately to a low level. For me, it was a fantastic choice to serve as a "travel microwave", and I got it super cheap here. I also quite like how with a single knob control, you quickly start an automatic 30 sec cycle, but if you turn the knob during this, the overall time increments as high as you like. This got me thinking that it might be a good microwave oven for those without much space and who perhaps are a little technology-challenged. "Put food in. Close door. Push button. Turn to the time you want. Wait until the beep." Very simple. One complaint: The black text on the red background is almost unreadable. Therefore I have to suggest getting a lighter color, unless they change the design.

I love this microwave! It has a nice retro feel and works really well.

We had a 1300w but it would blow our fuse if we dared to try and use it with something else on the same circuit. Decided to get a low watt, but I was worried that anything less wouldn't work as well. I was wrong. This works much better than my last microwave that was much more expensive and bulky. This one fits better. Not loud at all. This one also looks cute. Only negative... and its not really a negative is its got an auto child lock that I wish I could figure out how to disable permanently.

So easy to use, love the smooth turn adjustable knob and the +30 second function! Looks great in person. Not metal on the front but fantastic for the price.

Know that this microwave works fine like normal and is super cute, but that the door handle and knob are super cheap plastic. The handle feels like it might break over time and the knob feels like a toy you’d give a kid. Basically I feel like I’m using an easy bake oven when I’m heating up my leftovers.
