Catriona, Sheffield

+ Neat and compact - doesn't take up as much worktop space as most models. Inexpensive, looks quite good. Useful manual which helps you to get the most out of a no-frills machine and it does the job is all you use it for is heating up drinks/bowls of food and a bit of defrosting.

- Few features, though what can you expect for the money? Dials mean it is difficult to gauge times accurately, especially for less than a minute.
