Russell HobbsRHM1731 INSPIRE White 17 Litre Manual Microwave

Smart and easy to use though it is difficult to see the dial and numbers as they're all in the same colour. Nice black and silver retro style.

Just wanted a microwave no grill and no frills. Looks very stylish and is brilliant so far. Doesn't take up loads of room which is great in my small kitchen.

I needed a basic microwave for myself, because I am the only regular user I just wanted something basic.Bought this one and had it for two weeks now, it's doing its job fine. It's the same price bracket as some digital microwaves in the supermarkets, if you want value for money, buy one of those.I specifically wanted a manual one with no programs and it does that fine, no complaints about heating up food really.Between this and the honeycomb white manual one from the same brand, this one has the better pattern in my opinion.Some reviews mentioned slippery dials and they are right. The machine was basically impossible to use out of the box with wet hands, the timer did not move at all. Even with dry hands it was a bit stiff.After two weeks of use I can recommend this microwave, eventually the dials became easier to turn, and I can use mine without any problems, the dial turns even if your hands are completely soaked.I like the microwave, but can't give a 5 star rating because of that one issue with it.

Just the job and easy to operate

A beautiful and very functional microwave. It does everything I want and it is very easy to use as you can see on the photos. It is small and compact but big enough to fit plates, bowls, microwavable dishes. Jacket potatoes cook in 11 or 12 minutes. To reheat a soup bowl, about 2 minutes. So even if it is only 700 watts, it works fine. You even have the defrost function and 6 levels of power. Ideal and so cute! Mine is grey, with a mirrored glass in dark grey and chrome handle and knobs. I strongly recommend it and I only paid 67 pounds, so it did not break the budget. Well done, Russell Hobbs.

Best thing ever, so simple and easy to use there’s nothing really much I can say about it. Definitely recommend buying this product

Lovely microwave good quality and looks good

Visually this microwave looks the part, it's modern and contemporary however the power outlet leaves a little to be desired and cooking of food can take longer than I would like. If you want my advice go for a stronger wattage.
