David: Got the 1.6 Cu.Ft version. I've read some other reviews that said the clock/timer display was hard to see, ours was very easy to see.

There was one review that said the touch buttons were black on black, that's not true as they are a sort of silver'ish grey (like an aluminum color) on black and are easy to see if you are looking straight at them in a well lighted room. When you touch a button the actual touch point is very slightly up and to the left and not in the center of the button where its more intuitive to press. Plus it would be better if the silver'ish grey was white and not silver'ish grey, the 'wording/writing/numbers' for the buttons would stand out better if they were white.

So my first suggestion for improvement is that the button press spot be in the center of the button where its more intuitive. However, this being said, its ok after you get used to it but I noticed my senior aged next door neighbor who came over to visit to look at the microwave because she wants to buy a new one, she tried to use it and it wasn't very intuitive for her slightly shaky hands not having a definite intuitive point to aim for.

My second suggestion for improvement...

Michael P Dwyre: It's much harder to operate than my last microwave was it has many more options which I'm just beginning to understand and hopefully master them. But overall I'm very happy with it especially the looks.

Daffodil: We bought this Toshiba microwave as a "used-acceptable" with minor scratches. My husband and I were hard put to find any scratches or dings. This microwave came in the original box with manual and so far it is working just fine. It doesn't look nor act used at all and I doubt it was used. Thanks Amazon for a great deal on a supposed "used" microwave!

Ski: Bought this for size. Added incentive was to have dish stop in same spot as started. Didn't work. Realized I loved a feature of the old one where I could read the controls with out extra external light. These controls are black on black. Irritating for me. Aside from that, works fine.

Mark Fryml: The "smart" automatic sensor is amazing. No more guessing with time to reheat food. The only important thing one must remember is to keep the lid of your container partially removed so that the steam could escape in order that the sensor would know that the food is completely reheated.

LexingtonChinLexingtonChin: My Sharp Carousel MIcrowave Oven just died, so went shopping online for another microwave oven. So many choices, but I needed one that fits my cabinet and with 1200W. So I narrowed it down to a few and found this one on Amazon. It was at a very good price, size and power, but this Toshiba model had mixed reviews. So, I am writing my reviews to address the points from other owners of this microwave oven.

First, some owners had a difficult time setting the clock. I read the instructions, and it was pretty intuitive and I was able to set the clock time with ease. As for the control panel not well lit, I can see when my kitchen lights were dimmed or shut, it was a bit difficult to see (not back lit) but with normal lights on, control panel was easy to see. You can see the picture that you can clearly see the control panel.

The noise level is quieter than my Sharp Carousel model, so I give it thumbs up. Yes, you do hear the humming of a microwave oven, but it is low level and I think it is expected. As for ease of use, yes the bottom two icons can be confusing at first, but once you read the manual (I wonder if owners read the manual before they start complaining about...

Stéphane Paré: Fast shipping. Product is flawless so far. Everything works as designed. Microwave power is higher then the one we had before.

ArmandArmand: It is "not" easy to read. The Toshiba video shows a better to read control panel then the one I got even with the film removed.

Peter: I haven't had this appliance for long, but it appears to work as advertised. My only complaint is that the keypad isn't very responsive.

Amazon customer: I bought this solely for its ability to mute the sound. Really hard to find a microwave that will do this (bizarre). I’ve only had it for a few months, but so far works fine. The keys are a bit difficult to press, though…you kind of have to press off-centre to get the right number.
