The ad states light duty , the description states medium duty, which is correct?

In a commercial setting it's light duty, in a residential setting it is medium duty.

Country of origin? Made in?

The box of my unit, purchased November 28, 2018, reads “Made in Thailand”

Yes it's on the sticker on the inside of the door. Ul listed 285b and nsf with a circle around it. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more information. I have really liked this microwave. No turntable. We don't use one.

Are these still made in America?

My unit, purchased November 28, 2018, was made in Thailand, not U.S.A.
