Quite good value for money. Easy to operate. Fine for someone like me who doesn't use a microwave an awful lot. Doesn't take up too much space. Looks good.
-
Instructions a bit hit and miss in places e.g. it says ALWAYS use grill rack when grilling - does this include when using the "combi" (grill and microwave) option? It also says that the food is microwaved first THEN browned - as far as I could tell the grill/microwave both operated intermittently throughout the combi program. A time guide for the combi cooking would have been useful as you have to work out how long you want the item microwaved for and then add on another 45% or 70% of that time to include the grilling time. I used the combi option to cook a Jacket Potato and the grill didn't seem to make any difference - the skin did not brown OR crisp. Why have a program for "Skewered Meat" as skewers have to be removed before cooking anyway!! When setting the timer, a beep is heard for every 10 seconds added which can get annoying if you are setting a long cooking program!!

you can only set the timer in multiples of 10 seconds. Sometimes you want to heat something for 35 seconds - but your choice is 30 or 40. So you have to stop it manually which for me kind of defeats the idea of a digital timer.

Great micro wave oven with grill only thing is they should design a grill tray you can use with the microwave as they say. The one they supply with it is metal and we cant find one that you can use so at the moment you cannot use it as they say as the food is to low for the grill to bo of any effect
