I am per-emptively opening this thread to see what options i have for a new microwave over. The one we are using has been working well for past 3 years. It is of samsung brand and today somehow its center (which makes the plate rotate) burned. Check this thread <--Click

Requirements are as follows..

1. Not very big but not very small either.
2. Should be able to see the food inside when it is in operation. (I have seen microwaves in my office where i cannot look inside at all even with the light on). This is required for cases where say milk is being boiled and i need to shut off the microwave to avoid spillage.
3. In the 3 years we owned the current microwave, we have never used it to "cook" any food. It is mostly heating food/milk/water etc. At the most sometimes to boil things like corn etc.

I do not have a budget because i do not know what is appropriate one since the existing microwave was a gift.
I also do not know the convection and non-convection thing when it comes to microwaves and how does it affect anything. If it is not needed for my purpose and lessens my cost, i am ok with that.
 
Convection models have feature for baking and making cookies etc. You need only a Solo microwave because it is the feature used for heating and boiling. So don't go for Grill or convection models unless you need these features in future because Solo Microwaves are cheaper than other models.
 
I had exact same requirements as yours and I went with a Sharp solo one.
I got Sharp because they ain't made in China and are direct imports.
It cost me 5100.
You don't need convection/grill.
 
Yeah I did some search and convection and the grill thing is not needed.
Although not compulsory but I would want an all button one and not something which has rotary knobs type go timer and such.

Please tell me model number and where exactly I can find it ? Because my wife insists not to buy online.
I want to read about the sharp microwave.

I'm not at home so can't tell you the model number right now.
You can check their site for a local dealer, I searched the same way.

Also this one is having all buttons and no knobs.
