Adequate for the price of a few meals out.
I needed to replace a microwave and found a good offer at Curry's online through ebay.
I think that it could have a few more dials and such, and the two minute reminder didn't make an awful lot of sense to me, if under the time. There is no stop/cancel button, but you can easily open the door to it. Does say don't use microwaveable bean bags but it hasn't done any damage, hence why i think it's slow to heat up for extra safety precautions, which is good otherwise why are the products on the market?
For a hot mug of soup you probably need around three to four minutes, and the dial is strange as it doesn't set or click exactly on the minute.
Overall, if you have cooking instructions with any microwave, which this one doesn't, probably best to heat up a meal on medium/hot,and double the minutes, so you don't have to worry about turning back the dial.
