Lidl Microwave

    I am looking to get a new Microwave - I just use it to heat things up and cook frozen meals etc - nothing fancy. Has anyone ever got these ones in Lidl - SilverCrest. Are they any good or useless? The price is very good compared to ones in electrical shops. I know its only a 700W one, and my old one that went died (after 12 years) was 850W.
    Just wondering are they any good?

    My parents have bought one- died a year or so later for whatever reason and then received* another. I would highly recommend one, for one simple reason - the three year warranty. When my parents first one died, they just brought it back to lidl with the receipt, called a number and received a new microwave in the post a few days later. You can't get much better customer service than that! Bear in mind, in general microwaves don't break down all too often.

    In terms of performance, generally microwaves are all the same. They either heat or they don't. I find people never use the fancy features or meal buttons so just get one that is cheap and has a half-decent look!

    EDIT: Off topic but the kettles are also a great investment in Lidl. They all have 3-year warranties and, due to Ireland's hard water, they break down within a year or two. Same idea goes again, bring back and get a replacement. Do that multiple times and that 30 euro kettle becomes a 7 euro kettle very fast ;)

    Nice one. Whereabouts is it?
    I'm only a ten minute drive away.
