Firstly I must say I liked the instructions which came in the box. Slightly larger print so easy to read. So many times appliance print is quite small.
I ordered this basically because of the grey colour. I needed a small, easy to use grey coloured microwave by manufacturer I trusted. This one matches my other Russel Hobbs appliances so fits in well. Some people mentioned rusting but it does tell you yo dry up any moisture, I tend to leave door open too for a short while. I do also cover the food too to stop splashes. If you are use to a handle on your microwave the push button opening might be annoying, doesn't bother me. The plate stays firmly in place as with my other Russell Hobbs microwave it kept slipping off the rollers. Seems they have redesigned the plate so thumbs up. As the instructions say this product is mainly intended for heating/reheating. The only downsize for us is my husband is colour blind, the display numbers are red so he finds it a bit hard to see what the numbers actual are. Overall pleased with our choice.

Like how it looks like. Can’t say that is very powerful but more then enough for me.Normally from 1 to 1 and a half minute to hit up portion.Not using much defrost or other options yet.

does what it says
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I am not a big fan of Microwave ovens, but with my daughter working odd hours, I had to give in. This is fine. It does it job, which in my case is simply reheating a meal I cooked earlier. I don't want it for cooking a complete meal etc... The only drawback in my mind is the mirror finish door which is a nighmare to keep clean. When it is polished it looks great,but touch the door........

Now I have received my microwave I realise I have had the same model before. I like the model but the door catch broke last time. I'm hoping this won't happen again! Hence only giving it 4 stars.

Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

absolutely love this microwave. So easy to use and hardly needed to read the instructions to understand it. I never bother to weigh foods and programme accordingly as I set it on Defrost 2 and often change the items position. Cooks and heats perfectly. Some of the sleek brushed steel ones have buttons that are so subtle you need to be at the right angle holding a magnifying glass to see the number on the button (slight exaggeration). This is easy to see/use and because my tiles are cream it blends in perfectly.

After careful consideration as alot of these Amazon reviews claim their microwave almost blew up I was abit sceptical. But my microwave has been fine! The different setting for reheating/defrosting I haven't learnt so I just put everything in for varied time without adjusting the specific micropower. But works fine! Looks small but fits everything my 24L fitted.

I have downsized my home, and this is a really good compact microwave that is very easy to use. It matches the Russell Hobbs toaster and kettle that I have also purchased, and all are excellent products and look very stylish in my kitchen. I love the warm cream colour as it suits my kitchen much better than white.

    Recipe ideas for your microwave

    Rocky Road Cake in a Mug

    Ingredients:

    2 tbsp butter

    1 tbsp cocoa powder

    1 medium egg

    3 tbsp caster sugar

    2 tbsp self-raising flour

    4 tbsp mini marshmallows

    1 tbsp raisins

    2 tbsp. broken rich tea biscuits

    Method:

    1. Add the butter to a large microwavable mug of at least 350ml. Microwave for 10-20 seconds to melt.

    2. Add the cocoa powder and stir to combine. Next add the egg and sugar, beating with a fork.

    3. Add the flour and beat again until smooth.

    4. Stir in most of the marshmallows, raisins and biscuits and sit the remaining on top.

    5. Cook on full power for 1 minute 40 seconds. Check that the mixture is cooked. If not, add time and check at 30 second intervals until it is completely cooked through.

    Fuss-Free Poached Egg

    Ingredients:

    1 medium egg

    Pinch of salt

    Recently boiled water

    Method:

    1. Using water from a recently boiled kettle, half fill a microwavable mug.

    2. Add a pinch of salt and carefully crack the egg into the water.

    3. Microwave on full power for 30 seconds.

    4. Check the egg. If necessary, cook for a further 30-45 seconds, checking at 15 second intervals until poached to the desired consistency.

    Jacket Potato

    Ingredients:

    1 medium baking potato

    1 tbsp olive oil

    Sea salt

    Method:

    1. Thoroughly wash and dry the potato.

    2. Using a fork pierce the potato skin in 4 or 5 places.

    3. Rub the oil and sea salt into the potato. This helps to crisp up the skin for an oven-style jacket potato.

    4. Place on a microwavable plate and cook on full power for 4 minutes.

    5. Turn the potato and cook for a further 3-4 minutes, checking the progress at 1 minute intervals.*

    6. Serve with your favourite filling.

    *Cooking times will vary depending on the size of the potato

    Steamed Salmon, Potatoes and Asparagus

    Ingredients:

    2 salmon fillets

    300g baby potatoes

    250g asparagus

    1 tsp butter

    2 slices lemon

    1 tbsp. chopped dill

    Salt and pepper

    Method:

    1. Place the potatoes in a microwavable container with the butter. Season and cover with cling film. Cook on full power for 4-5 minutes or until cooked. Keep covered.

    2. Meanwhile, place the salmon in a microwavable container with the lemon and dill. Season and cover with cling film. As soon as the potatoes are cooked, cook the salmon on full power for 3 minutes. If necessary, extend the cooking time by up to 2 minutes, checking at regular intervals until the salmon is cooked through.

    3. Finally, wash and trim the asparagus, cover and cook for 2-3 minutes, then serve with the salmon and potatoes.

    Hints and Tips


    About your Russell Hobbs microwave

    Microwave ovens do not generate any heat themselves but instead cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the microwave stay much cooler.

    Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the appliance is lined with metal. The door is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops microwaves getting through.

    Cleaning:

    Avoid using scouring pads, steel wool or other abrasives. Warm soapy water and a sponge should get rid of all moisture and food spillages.


    How to get the best cooking results

    Reheat

    With five microwave power levels to choose from, you can ensure all your food is cooked or re-heated to the optimum temperature.

    Auto-Defrost

    This microwave has automatic defrost settings, all you have to do is input the weight of the food and the microwave selects the ideal defrost time.

    Auto Cook Menus

    The RHM2064 also features pre-programmed auto cook menus such as pizza, fish and popcorn, allowing you to cook all your favourite food at the push of a button.


    Avoiding Mishaps

    To avoid any microwave mishaps it is recommended to take extra care with the following:

    Low moisture foods (eg. cereals, bagels, dried pasta, pulses and chocolate)

    - These must be cooked on a low power level for a very short length of time, or preferably not at all.

    High sugar content foods (eg. jams, syrups)

    - These foods can become easily ‘super-heated’ when cooked in a microwave oven.

    Foods containing alcohol

    - Foods with an alcohol content must not be cooked in a microwave as they could ignite.

    Foods with a membrane or outer skin (eg. fruits, sausages, potatoes)

    - Food with a sealed or none porous skin must be pierced to allow pressure and steam to escape.
