Daewoo QT1 Compact Microwave Oven, 600 Watt, 14 Litre - White

Unbelievable value and just what a single person needs. I was a wee bit wary of buying this as it was so cheap. After using it for a couple of weeks I find there is nothing "cheap" about the way this microwave works and it is giving me full satisfaction. My older microwave broke down a couple of years back and since then I have managed without one though I did miss the almost instant gratification of a hot meal or snack and was instead using a tabletop mini oven or my gas stove to heat food. I came across this Daewoo Microwave whilst browsing for something else and the price immediately caught my eye. (At the time it was £40 for the white model.) After reading all the details it seemed perfect for my needs: very small footprint; relatively light weight (easy to handle); some quite good reviews. (I ignored the ones saying the "numbers wash off" - that is easily solved!) So I bought it. And after numerous uses over the past fortnight I am most pleased with my purchase. Though it is only a 600W machine, this is ample for my reheating of either home made meals or heating up purchases of single portion meals which are so handy when living alone and getting on a bit. The fact that it is a lower output than most of today's models give me the time to potter around and get the bits and bobs ready for when I eventually sit down. (And incidentally, this is the fourth microwave I have owned and for reheating, I have *always* used every machine on the 2nd setting, i.e. one step down from full power. To me, it then heats more evenly and again gives me that extra bit of time to potter about which I do need these days.) All-in-all, a fantastic purchase especially at the Amazon price, and as it was so cheap, I even forked out for a 3 year insurance coverage which at £9.00 still equated to a great bargain: £49.00 for s decent microwave, guaranteed for 3 years! You won't find better than that anywhere, IMHO.

I do not cook with a microwave. I bought it because I have a small pillow used on sore muscles that must be heated up in a microwave. I was looking for small size, low energy use, to do the job. I trolled the internet for reviews of small and tiny microwaves, and this had the smallest dimensions and buyers were happy with it. Of course, I have used it for other things and due to its small size, it will not take a large plate (a complaint by some reviewers) - but I easily switched the item to be defrosted into a pasta bowl and it fit just fine. Oven has lower wattage meaning things take longer but again, as I am not cooking, no big deal. Does exactly what I wanted it to do......was inexpensive, is easy to clean, the light switches off at the end of the cycle even with the door open....

First, the measurements currently given in the description are wrong! It is 42.4cm x 31.7cm x 22.3cm (according to the manual and checked by me). Power-wise you can tell its only 600 watts with "large" jobs such as jacket potatoes, but small jobs (such as a cup of milk) seem to take the same time as with an 800w microwave. I love that it has no clock, and the internal light only comes on when the microwave is on so you can leave the door open to air it out without using electricity. I hate the fact that I can't put it on for 30 seconds (my last microwave had a 30 second quick start button) - the dial tends to twist in one minute increments. You can try and get it halfway between 0 and 1 minute but its fiddly and rather hit and miss. This loses it one star.

This was a impulse buy to use in a motor home fiat duccato coach built. We where going to France and taking two year old daughter with us and wanted this to heat baby food/milk quickly on the go and also we where staying on sites with no electric hook up. This item preformed great and with the use of a inverter ran off our three 100ah leisure batteries with out any issue. We wild camped in the same place for a week and the microwave was used daily twice for five minutes at any one time. It is small fits into small spaces. will not take a baby plastic milk bottle as the height is restricted hence we poured milk in plastic cup heated then into milk bottle. No 30 seconds times but this is fine you can twist knob slightly if you desire 30 seconds! no light on when you leave door open so can leave it with door open to air it out with no worries about battery drain. light only comes on when it is working, which is good idea. it is not very heavy which is also handy when you have to move it around etc. All in all a good little microwave,

I needed a compact low power & lightweight microwave for our caravan. At 600w output it won't be a problem using it on a campsite electrics unlike the usual 800 / 850w models which can trip the site electrics. It seems well made with a good finish and is big enough capacity for our needs. Controls are simple & perfectly adequate. The interior is easy to clean & should be durable. In short does all we require of it. Only complaint was with Amazon - unusually they took a week to even dispatch it - when queried why delay - they could not give me an answer. All my previous purchases from Amazon have been very quickly delivered - so this slow service was most unusual.

We bought this because of two things, its size and simplicity. We travel a lot, and when we stay in accomodation that doesn't provide a breakfast or evening meal, we looked for something that we could throw in the back of the car and could use to heat a jacket potato, or warm up breakfast stuff like sausage and beans, or scrambled egg. The little Daewoo ticks all the boxes, there isn't a grill or another heat source to clutter things up. It's simplicity itself to use (unlike our built in Panasonic which is like the instrument panel of a 747). It's sturdily built and looks like it will last us years. Very happy with the purchase, and would recommend it hand down to anyone looking for a minimalist microwave, or only have a small kitchen with worktop space at a premium. Hope this helped.

I have been relatively happy with this microwave and pleased it has not dominated my kitchen work tops. I was surprised on how small it was inside, though this was my own fault for not investigating the capacity of 14L. It is lightweight and I need to hold the top of the microwave when opening the door, because it shifts around on the work top surface. It looks goods and performs the basic functions of what I personally need in microwave cooking.

Bought this for my live-aboard boat. Delighted at compact size and quality of build as well as low power consumption which is very useful when on a mains hook-up. Will also run on a 12-24v inverter (1000 watt surge - use the right inverter!) so perfect for boating when cruising. A digital timer would have been nice but I'm getting used to the manual timer even at its lower power rating. Though not alot of height room, it does take a 9" plate on the turntable and so far, so good. Not much else to compete with this product in the market place so would definately recommend.

Dimensioni, peso e assorbimento contenuti sono il suo forte. In realtà la versione che mi è stata recapitata è la "QT3" di colore rosa. Funzionamento semplice e perfetto. Come da indicazioni fornite manca il Grill, peccato.
