Amana 1.5 cu. ft. Over-the-Range Microwave, AMV1150VAW, White

Cheapest Amana 1.5 cu. ft. Over-the-Range Microwave, AMV1150VAW, White
==================================================================

This over-the-range microwave does double duty in style. With the sleek silhouette created by a hidden vent, you almost forget it is a vent fan for your range, too. And the interior easily holds and heats large serving bowls and platters of food.
  • Contemporary Styling with a Hidden Vent
  • Scrolling Word Prompt Display
  • Cooktop Surface Light with Timer Delay
  • Touchmatic Control System
  • Auto Cook Options

This Over-the-Range Microwave Ovens give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Very good value
I ordered this Microwave to replace my 15 year old GE microwave/vent hood which had finally given up the ghost (after multiple repairs). I was pleased that I could install it myself using the templates and instructions included. It has fewer features than the expensive model it replaced but it works quite well and includes all the important features including the ability to use the existing vent or to vent into the room.

2. Good Microwave, Loud Fan
This microwave came with our new home. It can be vented outside or inside- ours is vented inside and there is always grime on cupboards above our range where the outlet is, and we really don't fry that much. So plan to vent this outside or do a lot of scrubbing. The fan is VERY LOUD, so if you like to have a conversation anywhere in the house while cooking, this may not be the product for you. Again, this might be better if vented outside. Microwave itself works good, defrost function is handy.

Need more appointment... ?
so far so good
Ho-hum appliance that does what it is supposed to do, without getting in the way. Price is in line with the competition. Altogether this is better than many: Amana managed to keep the bells and whistles under check, and the control panel is simple and functional. There are no buttons eliciting the 'hmm, wonder what this is for' state-of-mind. Wish it was a bit more heavily built: been looking wide and hard for reliability, even at a significant premium, in consumer appliances but all I found was more (IMHO useless) functions, more (IMHO confusing) buttons, same flimsy magnetrons. Packaging was minimalistic, styrfoam tops and bottoms with shrink-wrap to protect the middle (yes, not a full cardboard box around the appliance). It worked, as there was no damage in transit. Microwave is easy enough to move and carry for one average person alone, allowing for bulk. Assembly and installation are same-o same-o, need some tools, tape measure, patience, modest skills, and proper mindset...
