Doesn't last long
Would Not RecommendWe purchased this microwave on August 16,2025 and installed it on August 21, 2025. At exactly 521am on September 13, 2026, the magnetron went out after making a loud humming noise. The unit kept running on the timer until the time ran out. The coffee in the unit was still cold. Tried resetting by unplugging the unit but still did not work. A little over one year and it has stopped working. I would not recommend this brand at this point.

Watch out for the gas pipe placement!
I am happy with the range, however, it could not be pushed to the wall because of the placement of the gas pipe on the wall. In the store, it was never explained to me that gas pipe placement has to match the back of the gas range. Thus, my gas range is 3 inches off the wall! If I had been aware of this issue, I might have picked another range. I would have liked to know that the placement of gas pipe on the wall where the the range goes can be an issue!
