Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Westinghouse WST3504 .6 Cubic Foot Microwave, WhiteCustomer Review: Looks Cheap, Is Cheap Summary: 2 Stars
My college roommate has this very same microwave. If you are looking for something small, you found it. However, that's about all it has going for it.
**It took over two and a half minutes to heat a cup of water to make cocoa or coffee [at my college we're not allowed to have coffee makers, so instant is the standard]. That's ridiculous.
**The same would go for pizza. If I wanted to reheat a slice in the microwave, it wouldn't even be WARM at the 1 minute mark. Most microwaves would kill a piece of pizza after 45 seconds.
**Although this isn't a huge factor, the microwave clock was slow. We'd set it one day, and by the following day, it would be over 10 minutes behind. I found this to be annoying more than anything.
**The buttons for heating were v. noisy, too, which is a drawback if you want to heat up coffee or breakfast before your roommate gets up in the morning.
All in all, if you have a v. small space and don't mind waiting 2 1/2 minutes for a cup of joe, this is the microwave for you. But if you pay about $10-20 more, you can get something slightly bigger that will work much more efficiently. I wouldn't recommend this 700 watt microwave.
