What’s the difference between Weight Defrost & Time Defrost?
Our countertop microwave’s Weight Defrost Function works by inputting your food’s weight, which will defrost accordingly; Time Defrost will defrost meat, soups, stews, and other foods solely by inputting your preferred time.
Should you stir your food occasionally while microwaving it?
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center.

Nice microwave!
Very easy to use!
Idania Walter –
Works great
Works great, but boy is it noisy when it starts up. It eventually settles down and becomes quieter as it cooks.

AMAZON SUCKS
I really thought this was going to be a nice microwave. What a joke, the display, clock, timer, you can barely make it out. T he timer, stops showing how much time is left, after you enter it. Also, you CANNOT hear the beep, when food is finished. I burned 2 cakes because your microwave SUCKS! Also, I returned the microwave, Amazon received this back on 4/1/25, I guess the April Fool joke is on me, because I still HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY REFUND!!!!!! Yet, it states on the returned item page, when Amazon receives the merchandise, they will refund you. NO THEY WILL NOT!!!! It is now 4/7/25, and I still HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY REFUND!!!!!!EVERY PERSON I SPEAK TO, HAS A DIFFERENT STORY, about how long I have to wait for my money to be returned to me.AMAZON SUCKS AS BAD AS YOUR MICROWAVE!!!!!

LOUD, and it is not as intuitive as I had hoped.
This review is for the Commercial Chef CHM16100B6C Countertop Microwave Oven,1000 Watts, Small Compact Size.It’s big, which I wanted.IT’S LOUD, LOUD, LOUD, which was a surprise.There are no intuitive numbers, for example, with most microwaves if you press the number one, it will start the unit for one minute. This does not do that. However, if you only want 30 seconds, all you have to do is press 30 and start.It seems to do what I need it to do, pop popcorn, reheat food, and cook my vegetables. The spousal unit likes to make microwave eggs, and that seems to work well. Melting cheese is quick, but heating water seems to take a while longer. For two cups it takes four minutes.It has a cord that is almost long enough, almost. Allowances had to be made, but I got it to fit where I needed it to be.PROS: It is a much better unit than the Toshiba ML-EM45PIT(BS) that only lasted for 14 months before it bit the dust, and that was after it had been replaced twice.It holds a large (not x-large) casserole dish, which works for most vegetables.The instructions are easy to understand.It beeps more than once to tell you that your food is ready. That is probably the best thing there is to say about this unit. I don’t always hear the first beep.It seems to be heavier & more stable then the Toshiba ML-EM45PIT(BS). That one I could toss around like a rag doll.CONS: It is startlingly loud. You will never be able to make that popcorn without everyone knowing about it.I really wish the cord was just a few inches longer.There are no intuitive numbers.

It makes things hot…
…when you can get the door open to put stuff in it. Really crappy microwave but if you can get the door open, it makes things hot.

Stopped working in just 6 months!
Do not purchase this product! It was a more expensive microwave and stopped working just 6 months after we purchased it—totally quit in the middle of microwaving something! We submitted a claim because it was still under warranty and are STILL waiting 4 months later for a replacement….way too long to receive a new appliance! And, their warranty representatives are horrible—they could never tell us when we would receive the replacement microwave (we are still unsure if and when one is coming). Now, we’re out the money for this microwave (that we STILL haven’t received) and a new microwave we ended up purchasing because we need one for daily use. Save your money and purchase from a different company!!

This microwave oven has a big crack inside the main shell of the oven. Unsafe to use. Also this is a very basic microwave and difficult to operate.
