I have a whirlpool one, I started out using all the bells and whistles but don't anymore. Probably go back to a regular microwave when I next upgrade.

Yep Love it... . Best cakes and perfect for reheating pizza, pastries, chips etc without making them go soggy... . really good if you need extra cooking provisions when entertaining... they do the best sausage rolls really FAST ! !

I have to agree with Carbon there - I've had my Whirlpool for about 5 years - its brilliant - I use it more than my oven - by far the best investment I have ever made.

Brilliant for chips, nuggets, pies etc I have a whirlpool one its great!

Love it... . One of the best thing I use in my kitchen... . pies, sausage rolls etc are so quick and crispy, Chicken nuggets and patties are great and they make awesome oven chips. Frozen uncooked mousetraps only take 2 mins to cook and bottom is crispy! ! have fun with it! !

Yep, whirlpool one here and sooo handy for quickly heating things without the soggyness! And also great for toasting nuts or seeds, and I also use it for crumpets

Love my whirlpool ... use it for everything, roast veg, home made wedges, and DH's favourite -honey/soy drumsticks.

Had a whirlpool for years, its brilliant!

Yes, totally agree Whirlpool is the best. Would never go back to an ordinary microwave. Great for crumbed fish, fries, pies. :)

Yes we love ours, had one before and recently replaced it when putting in a new kitchen. Great for heating up a small oven eg to bake a cake.

Thank you to everyone who replied. I bought a Sharp and it's great. I have cooked several things and currently have a cake in it.

I had a Sharp and loved it. Unfortunately the people who bought our house wanted it as we had built it in. Got a Panasonic later on but didn't like that much - too complicated.
