Frigidaire FFCM1134LB 1.1 cu. ft. Countertop Microwave Oven

I love you the microwave it was a gift to my sister and brother in law and they like it as well

Perfect. Except when you open the door no light comes on. Light goes on when it’s running.

I have kept it because it's more trouble to pack it up and return it than to overlook the big dent in the side. Seems to work well enough but is loud. It was quite cheap, so the metal casing is probably quite thin. I'd spend a bit more money next time and probably shop locally.

Horrible design. Worst micrwave I've ever had. The glass plate is hard to place on the stupid turntable shaft triangles PLUS the LOOSE "turn table assembly ring" dislodges & the plate will either not turn at all OR if it dislodges sideways it will turn with a loud crunch at every turn. This happends with almost every use. Customer DisService is HORRIBLE. I was finally transferred to a Supervisor who arranged for a replacement but only for the same dysfunctional model.

This one was bought to replace one that began to lose responsiveness in several of the command keys on the touch pad. The first one lasted 4 years and is inexpensive enough just to replace instead of get repaired. I've been please with it and think the control board gave up the ghost. That is why I bought another just like the first one. I use it all the time, everyday, so I got my money's worth out of the first one.

Bought one defective returned.The second built 9-12 ,bought 1-13 died 1-10-20 We broke the MW dish once and got a generic one for$11. Off ebay. 6 years..$85.00As noted by others the dish - ring assembly is kind of rickety.It's easy for the ring to slip off the three dish nubs that drive it. It's a cheap microwave so six years isn't bad.

I bought this and an equivalent sized/priced Kenmore model (0.9 cu) at the same time to run side by side. I might add that both brands have virtually the same features in both the 0.9 vs the 1.1 models, so comparing 1.1 to 0.9 is simply a matter of size difference. I wanted a microwave in my pantry. So I have space constraints. Kenmore's next size up, 1.2, is WAY too big. Frigidaire offers the most compact footprint of amost all the brands. You can get far more wattage in a smaller base. But I still wanted quality. GE is far too big, I love GE but it hogs counter/shelf space. Magic Chef is a deceptively re-branded plastic EZ Bake Oven -and just as cheaply made- so I returned it immediately. Oster was not much better and just as tin-canny. Couldn't find Danby in any store and I don't want to order a virtually unheard of brand sight unseen, but it seemed like a worthy opponent based on universal reviews. So the only real two contenders in the same price/size range was Kenmore and Frigidaire. Here are my findings:-Both will fit on a shelf which is at least 13.5" deep. The front edge of the feet come out to 13" so if you have 0.5" to spare on the shelf, you'll be ok. Both are under 12" which is often standard shelf spacing. Frigidaire lists height as 12" but it's slightly under that. Kenmore is around 11.5"-Footprint: Frigidaire takes up less space-Auto Cook Options - Frigidaire has far more autocook options (instructions provided on inside of door), but both have the fairly standard single-touch buttons such as popcorn, beverage yada yada-Timed cooking (where you want to key in explicit time such as 1:42 for 1 min 42 sec. This one is interesting and likely comes down to user preference. Both offer the feature but in different ways. On Kenmore, you hit "Time Cook" and then the numbers and then start. A little more straightforward but more buttons to push. On Frigidaire, you simply press the 1 - 4 - 2 buttons and then Start. But you need to do it without delay between buttons or the autotimer function will kick in. So if you hit 1 - and then 4 and then wait too long, it will start cooking on 4 minutes. But it gives you very ample time to complete that sequence so this may not even be an issue. Unless you're reeeaaaalllly slow. Those with poor eyesight or ADHD - go with the Kenmore. ;-)-Reminder beep, Neither one gives you a reminder beep if you forget to retrieve your item. I only mention that because my previous one did that every 5 min until you opened the door or hit cancel. Some don't like that - I did.-Reminder Message - Frigidaire wins this one because it reads "END" after the timer is up, which is handy. No more waking up to last night's green beans I forgot to set out on the table. Kenmore resets to "0:00" after the time is done so it's not as clear if you forget to retrieve something.-Door release button. I didn't think this would matter to me - but I find it does. And I find it's bugging me more than I thought. Kenmore is VERY tough door release button. Frigidaire door release is quite smoothe and considerably quieter. One finger is enough. Even your pinky. I didn't even fool with Magic Chef or Oster because their door release was so ridiculously cheap I was afraid the door would fall off after a couple uses. This matters because if you're holding a large bowl of liquid with both hands and trying to poke out a spare finger to open the door - one finger won't be enough for the Kenmore. Several fingers with considerable force are required to open the Kenmore door. I'm rather disappointed there. My other Kenmore was so easy.-Interior Light:1) Brightness: Frigidaire light far brighter than Kenmore and it is quite bright and easy to see food inside2) When not in operation: Kenmore's light comes on as soon as you open the door. handy. Frigidaire only comes on when in operation-Beeps:1) Number: Kenmore emits 5 long beeps when timer is done. Frigidaire emits 3 short beeps2) Loudness: Kenmore is softer, but verrry lonnng beeps. Frigidaire is much louder, but very stuccato and quick. Overall Frididaire is louder - but takes much shorter time in alerting you.-Turntable: both have same size of 10.6"-Time Defrost or Weight Defrost - both have these dual features but you access it differently. Kenmore offers dedicated buttons to either. This makes Kenmore easier-- but it also does so by compromising button space-Button space: Frigidaire buttons are much bigger and easier to see. Kenmore's is smaller - because they dedicate more buttons to features on the panel - but more buttons means each button is smaller-Operation Noise: this was tough to compare. I think it comes down to personal audible sensory tolerances. The Kenmore is marginally quieter but louder if you are prone to focusing in on motor noises. It operates on a deeper motorized hum kind of sound. So if the buzzing hum gets to you, don't get Kenmore. However, the Frigidaire emits less audible "tone" meaning there's no real tonal sound that comes from it -- but it seems to blow the fan louder during use. So overall it operates on a higher sound frequency if you count the fan blower as a sound. You hear this loud rush of air from the fan blower. But no motor noise, no hum/buzz. So you decide. I could live with either one. It's going in my pantry so noice isn't as big an issue.Hope this is helpful.I have no idea how long Frigidaire will last. That is my only concern, based on the reviews here. However reviews on Best Buy and Lowes rate it very highly so I don't know why there is such disparity. Maybe a bad batch of units sold by different vendors? I originally was sold on the Kenmore brand but wooed by the more robust features of the Frigidaire. So I spent the extra $11 for the 2 yr replacement warranty coverage.I've learned you get what you pay for. You want something that lasts 14 yrs, gotta pony up more $$$. I'm okay if this lasts a few years. By then my needs may be different and technology will be offering even better features.

Bought this 1 month ago and returned it used after 2 weeks. I was always worried that the glass tray would fall on the floor when people pulled things out because it slides around a lot. It has no interior light when door is open which makes cleaning difficult. It is too light so it is hard to keep recommended clearance in back because closing the door pushes it back every time. The noise was equal to my microwave 15 years ago - not quiet. This is the only microwave I've seen where you put in the power level before the time which was very hard to retrain my family on. No one could intuitively figure out multistage cooking with all the times you have to press start. The dinner plate reheat setting was way too powerful for the ounces on the plate and it ruined more than one plate of food. My husband was mad it didn't have a pizza button. The only things I liked were the small size for the wattage and it did bacon really well with the bacon setting.
