Russell Hobbs RHM2048SS 20L Digital 800w Solo Microwave Stainless Steel

I've had this microwave for four years, still running perfectly.My fault because I accidentally ran it (for 19 mins!) empty - all fine but it blew the bulb. Just to say that if you want to replace this bulb, you'd have to open the torx security screws on the back - the best way I found (because I don't have the right bits) is to grab the screws tightly on the side with some multigrips....they're not that tight and come off quite easily. The bulb itself is part of a plastic housing so you cant just go and get a new bulb. I've found on eBay the right one - it's a z187 20 watt.Should be a fairly simple replacement once it's arrived (note that to take off the wires, there's a small metal clip on the connection that you need to press down as you remove these connectors - you'll see it). Obviously don't touch anything else inside because there is a chance of dangerous current still being present.So there we go, it most likely won't need doing, but if so, it's a relatively simple job and will most likely save you some biccies... 😊

I have been using the new microwave for some time. It is to use but When got it I found it not easy how use it because the instructions were not clear .

This is my second Russell Hobbs micro my first one is still working after years of usage i gave to my son that is why i bought another R Hobbs, this one is dark on the inside my other was white but that does not bother me.The dials are very much like my first one i love it.It as three dings when it is finished cooking.The micro has a silver finish along the top and down the sides and chrome on the handle and dials. I have had it a few months now if it lasts as long as my other i will be well pleased.

Perfect for requirements, but as with most modern microwaves I have encountered recently, the oven does not evacuate moisture when cooking food from frozen, so a cloth has to be kept on hand to dry the cavity after every use.

Advertised as stainless, only the front of the unit is stainless steel, plastic door with brushed steel plate on the front, small stainless plate over the controls, painted grey sides, will have to do till i can afford another. microwave works ok used last night heated up food well enough.

Perfectly adequate and does the job but little things make this a second rate piece of kitchen equipment. The plate does not fit symmettically on the turning circle, there is no delay button, no defrost unless you put it on automatic defrost. A cheap and rather flimsy microwave.

Don't know how good is it as a microwave but we bought two of them for our customers to fit in 500 microwave wall unit and it fitted very well.

I gave it as a present and the other person was very happy with it
