Appliance Reviews

same story as the other low rated review. This Emerson product is worthless. The microwave just stopped working and the display would not return despite plugging the oven in different outlets. we suspect a blown fuse but who wants to get certification in microwave repair just to make the piece of junk work again.
Emerson should label their products with expiration dates. At least it lasted longer than a carton of milk.

When my 2 and a half year old mic started to spark I looked at the warantee that came with it and it said a six year replacement on the magnetron. Great. I phoned the number on the booklet that came with it and they said send it to them, nearly twenty five hundred miles!!!!There are no repair shops authorized to repair it

We purchased this 2 years ago, use it everyday ,several times a day. I have had no problems what so ever. I am wondering what these other reviews are. Are they sure it is correct item??? I am going right now to purchase one for my daughters wedding gift. which is what brought me here to begin with. i read and told my daughter about neg.feedback left on this model,so,then she wanted one just like ours,I just checked OURS to see what I have, WELL low and behold this is 'OUR' model.GREAT BUY!!!!Family of four and all the kids in and out snacking here. I have never had such a GREAT DEAL on a Microwave.Easy to clean and looks GREAT to boot.

After owning our last (giant) microwave for 15 years, we decided to replace it with a smaller microwave. After 3 months, it just stopped working. Their 1-800 helpline is a complete waste of time, with no service areas near (even in the large Atlanta market) or advice on how to repair the model. The lower price was not worth the hassle and I will not buy an Emerson product again.

I bought my emerson microwave almost exactly two years ago now at target. up until recently it worked great, and I have taken good care of it, cleaning it inside and out on a regular basis--it still looks brand new. now all of a sudden it won't work. won't melt butter. won't heat tea. won't defrost anything! and if it does decide to work, afterward it makes this scary crackling noise deep inside of the case, so I just unplugged it; it seems to be unsafe. all of the microwaves my family or I have ever had (made by other companies) have always worked for years and years, so this has been rather surprising. I can't get this microwave serviced because the warranty is limited to one year and it would cost as much to get it fixed as it would to just get a new microwave. I give the microwave two stars instead of one because it worked so well for the two years i have had it. I didn't get my money's worth and am not planning on ever buying an emerson product again.

I recieved this microwave as a wedding gift over 3 years ago and it has worked like a champ! I was a little aprehensive about the size, but it fits anything I put in it. In addition, I have a very small kitchen and is really a space saver, yet powerful appliance!

Okay service for about 3 years. Then, nothing. Looking inside, we find a burnt out fuse, 3 burned out switches, and a malfunctioning transformer. Cost to fix: $130.

Our microwave lasted approximately 1.5 years before ceasing to work. Furthermore, trying to find out any product support for this product is near impossible. Emerson should market this as the disposable microwave for people that like to throw things away.

My microwave worked great for about 2 years, but just died on me for no apparent reason. A well-designed microwave should last for at least 10 years. It was easy to use, and was very powerful (didn't take long to heat anything up), but it just wasn't designed for the long haul. I wish that I had read these reviews before buying the product, or that companies would refuse to sell such a poor product. I'm curious how long the people with the good reviews have had their microwaves.
