Better have adjustable stands on bottom. The 800w is not as powerful as others
KAll good although difficult to see through the “window” when cooking. Not sure whether the internal light is not bright enough or in the wrong place? Or whether the metal grill over the glass door is too thick?
SVHad to return as very very noisy..could not use
nellNot sure how much I like this - same wattage but previous one could warm up a cup of tea in a minute, this takes two. It also seems to affect the glaze on the plate too which none of our previous ones did. Wouldnt buy it again tbh
Hols969Like my Microwave really easy to use and looks good to
agnes staszekLooks really nice. Very easy to install, and easy to use. Great value for money.
BarbaraGreat item and reasonable price.Very easy to use and looks fab. I’ve had a newKitchen and the integrated microwave options avalible from kitchen supplier were far more expensive than this. I’m very impressed and glad I bought from amazon.
Amazon CustomerPremptive TL;DR: if you're using this microwave to replace an existing one that had a fully adjustable installation kit, you may have to do a bit of DIY to get this one to fit. Otherwise it's an attractive and functional oven at a very respectable price. But the display might be red.Pros: Good looking appliance and good build quality for the price, simple to operate.Cons: Installation may be a problem, possible red display may not be to everyone's taste.A little context for the installation problems. We bought this microwave to replace a Smeg that went in with our fitted kitchen and which finally kicked the bucket after 14 years of use. The installation kit for the Smeg consisted of adjustable feet for the oven body with adjustable spacer arms for centralisation, and a separate trim with screw-in plastic mouldings for attaching it to the wood frame around the microwave itself. In short, the position of the oven was fully adjustable in three dimensions within the cabinet, and the trim was then attached around it.The installation kit for the Russell Hobbs consists of a single screw, which sounds like the zenith of simplicity but isn't. More of that later. The trim is fixed to the oven body, and while it could be removed with suitable tools there'd be little point because there'd be no way of fitting it back around the oven once the oven was installed. The whole thing is designed to be fitted as one.The main problem for us was the height. Our cabinet recess is slightly taller than that specified in the installation guide, which meant that the oven sat too low and left a 1cm gap between the top of the trim and the shelf above. The oven itself has no feet of any kind; although some are visible in a couple of the handbook diagrams, and there are rectangular gaps in the corners that look as though they might take rubber feet, none are fitted or provided. The oven just sits on the lower shelf. Fortunately I had some spare shelves from a long defunct bookcase and was able to cut these to size and put them between the oven
KevRNo template for fitting which made it difficult
MEL, HarrogateGreat piece of kit lol
DosiedickNeeded this for my new kitchen and it frees up work space
Amazon CustomerI was limited in my options for a built in microwave due to the design of my new kitchen. The design and functionality are fine but the clock gains time which is irritating to say the least. I purchased my first one last year and initially thought it was me setting the clock incorrectly until I started to monitor it closely. Within a month of being reset it gained 4 minutes. I called Russell Hobbs directly and they told me it was a circuitry fault which couldn’t be repaired and directed me to go back to Amazon for replacement. Amazon were amazing despite having spent many hours on the phone with them the item was eventually replaced. I had to get a tradesman to uninstall the old and reinstall the new one. Within a month the same problem happened so I called Russell Hobbs again to notify them that this model obviously has issues, their response was to direct me back to Amazon and they didn’t seem concerned that they are selling a product that has a defect.
Susan P.Very happy with the product I highly recommend this product
Amazon CustomerExcellent product. Works really easy to use. Perfect for my purpose. Controls are easy to use and clear instructions.
MRS N A DUSTANFab for the price and matches the kitchen, fits the gap in the kitchen as needed. Only small gripe is the levelling screw didn't work in my application as i have a removable shelf above, modified the shelf above to make it fixed problem solved so wasn't an issue.
PaddyDoes what it says on the tin
DunnyWe needed a new integrated microwave but didn’t want too spend too much as we’ll renew again reasonably soon when we go over at same time.This was easy to install and looks pretty good in our kitchen.Simple instructions and no fuss. Certainly a good choice for those who want a decent microwave at a good price.The capacity is small however, the mirror finish on the door is excellent.

This microwave is unencumbered with 'extras' for different styles of cooking and so comes at a good, basic price. It is a cost-effective way of heating/cooking items.
red.phoneNicely integrated and good replacement for previous faulty product
