Excellent build quality, very easy to keep clean, large interior, excellent "turbo" functoin to kick start the cooking. The Chaos Defrost function is the only defrost function I've ever seen work on a microwave.
-
The display is very hard to see if you've not got the thing mounted at eye level. If like most people you have this on a normal work top, you'll have to bend down to see the display.

Easy to use.
Good selection of timing i.e you can cook for exact times down to number of seconds - rather than minutes.
Clear digital display informing you of remaining cooking times/ when to turn food etc.
Impressive that oven seems small but cooking capacity is so large.
-
Only one short 'beep' telling you that cooking process is complete.So, if you are out of the room - or have a fan oven on at the same time - you do not always hear this.

The only domestic stainless microwave that I could find. I liked the first one so much, that I bought another for the main kitchen
-
The microwave does a lot more than I am using, need a spare few hours to read the accompanying book. Timer not easy to set.

Backlighting of the LCD means that the display is difficult to read if you're over 5'9" and the oven is situated on the counter-top. Outer case is fairly flimsy.

It would be better if the fan didn't continue running after cooking had finished. It's less easy to tell when the time is up if you aren't in the room when it beeps.

Chaos defrost setting is a useful addition, as it makes a much more even job of defrosting than a regular defrost setting.
Turbo reheat is great for heating small amounts very quickly.
Exceedingly easy to clean the inside!
Nice and big.

Need to press several buttons to get it going on any setting.

It looks great- not plastic looking like so many other so called "stainless steel" finishes. This really is stainless steel. Buttons easy to use. Cooking is excellent, so fast compared to my old one.
-
It is noisy when cooking and the fan stays on even when the cooking time has finished. This can be misleading as you think it is still cooking. It is also more expensive than a lot of models considering it is just a microwave and not a combination microwave - must be the finish you are paying for.

I wanted a microwave that I could select the power level I wanted, rather than having to input the type of food and weight, and this is exactly what it does.

At the time I purchased it was one of the more expensive microwaves considering it's only function was to be a microwave (no browning/grilling/oven combination option).
