RCA RMW1199 1.1-Cu-Ft Grill Combination 1000-Watt Microwave, Stainless Steel

This review of RCA RMW1199 1.1-Cu-Ft Grill Combination 1000-Watt Microwave is at this time pretty tentative, as this unit is new on the market, new to me and has no reviews so far. As I play with this unit a little longer, I will periodically upgrade my opinion.

For now:
The closest to compare it with I could find are: GE JES1384SF Microwave (rated so-so), Haier MWG10018TW (bad reviews all over), SHARP R-55TS (little data to compare) and Emerson 1.1 cu. ft. Microwave Oven, 1,000-Watt, sold by Walmart (poor reviews). Emerson is priced cheaply and made accordingly. All other models, even the ones with poor ratings, are priced much higher than RCA. So we score on the price.

I next compared it to my old Goldstar (it was good till it lasted) of the same size and (presumably) power, which died recently after over 15 years. This new RCA is much more powerful! It cooked in about 3 minutes what the old Goldstar would need to cook for about 5 minutes. Score...Read more

For the money a great looking and operating microwave. the grill feature is a not found on many other microwaves.

This is a great looking and solid microwave. We've had it for about 5 months and it has worked great with average use. We haven't tried the "grill function" yet, just because I'm still kind of confused about it. The only con would be that to open the door, you sort of have to "brace" the machine first, and then pull the handle. If you just pull the handle, the whole microwave moves. Otherwise, totally pleased with this product and it fits nicely with our other GE Profile stainless appliances.
