Review: Compact and Quiet - Compact grey metal box that heats things up. The description for this are wrong. There isn’t a sniff of stainless steel to be found. The body is made of metal, painted on the outside, painted and coated on the inside. The door is plastic, the handle feels to be plastic with a chrome coating. The internal cavity is easy to clean. I give it a quick wipe down after use, no hassle. High price for what it is; a microwave. However, all I wanted was a microwave. Not a 3 in 1, not a combi with a grill. Not something with 600 different operations, and claiming it can roast a chicken when it can’t—roasting meat is a job for an actual oven. Turns out it’s no longer simple finding a microwave that’s just a microwave. Current problems with general availability of anything do not help. It’s either buy something hideously cheap it’ll break in three months, or for something decent spend way over the top. Like this. This is a compact and nice size. The mid-range Panasonic’s (with the 2,467 different functions) may cost less, but they are massive in size. For overall build quality, I have no doubt this is better than the majority of the around £100 offerings. Will it last ten years? Look after it I don’t see why not. When in use it’s reasonably quiet. Sounds smooth in operation, too; my previous microwave was louder, hummed and drummed inconsistently, with a more than audible change when the microwavy bit kicked in and out. This one just hums. It does have some nice functions. You can twist the dial whilst it’s running to nudge more time, or less, onto the timer. The beverage reheat I’ve used a few times, just because it’s there, and it’s actually useful—no more scalding hot tea reheats. Could cost less, I feel the price is more to do with the Sage branding than the worth of the product. Overall, yes, I would recommend. It’s a simple, straightforward, microwave. * * * Dec 2022 Update * * * Still going strong. I do not regret buying this.
Review: Sage micro wave - I liked the solid quality of the micro wave and it’s very easy to use,I would say it will last for years. Also looks good in any kitchen. Press the off button on front of machine and no noisy beeps. Although a bit pricey it’s worth it for sheer quality. Highly recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this an Inverter microwave**
A: No, the Sage® SMO650 Compact Wave™ Soft Close Microwave is not an inverter microwave.

**Q: What is the turntable diameter?**
A: The turntable for the Breville® BMO650 Compact Wave™ Soft Close Microwave is approximately 12" in diameter.

**Q: What is the internal measurement? Particularly the height from turn table to top to see if my rice steamer fits**
A: The interior dimensions of the Sage® BMO650 are 30.5 cm (W) x 20.3 cm (H) x 30.5 cm (D)

**Q: can i fit a 28cm plat in this**
A: I’ve just measured the turntable and it’s 28 cm.  I’ve also laid a 28 cm plate on the turntable and it fits comfortably with room to rotate so I’d say yes you can but I’ve not actually used a 28 cm plate in the microwave so to be absolutely certain you might want to check with manufacturer.  It’s too expensive to risk making a mistake!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Well Done Sage!
*by L***E on 21 July 2024*

I have a few Sage appliances, so when I needed a new microwave I had a look. It says it’s “compact”, yes and no. There are smaller microwaves on the market, but it’s not huge. It doesn’t have a grill or air fryer, it’s a microwave. Well built, love the soft close door, good shortcuts, love the mute button! Expensive for a microwave, but I went through “used very good” for a cheaper deal and all it had wrong was a missing manual. Excellent!
