Toshiba 800w 23L Microwave Oven with Digital Display, Auto Defrost, One-touch Express Cook with 6 Pre-Programmed Auto Cook, and Easy Clean - Black - ML-EM23P(BS)

Toshiba was the maker of of the first microwave oven I purchased. Since then I have tried several other makes. In my opinion Toshiba are the best both in quality, build and reliability. This one certainly lives up to there reputation , not only does it look good , it is easy to set up and use. Excellent value for money

Does exactly what I hoped it would and more. Works great as a normal microwave, and the power can be properly controlled, which is great for defrosting. The grill works nicely too - you put the food on the provided baking tray and grill rack and it rotates the food under the grill. The convection oven on its own needs a bit of time to heat up, but it works well too. You can also use any of these three main functions all at once, or in any combination. This allows for a huge range of cooking methods, but it can also get a bit confusing. You have to refer to the manual to understand what many of the programs do. Also you have to be careful not to use the baking tray and/or grill racks when the microwave function is enabled as part of the program. Therefore, if you are cooking something like pizza and you use the auto-cook program for that, you need to just use a normal non-metallic plate, which will get very hot during cooking. Having said all that though, you really can get excellent results for most kinds of food with a little practice using this device. There is also a provided plastic steamer tub which you can use to steam food. The "air fry" mode is actually just the convection oven and grill in combination. It is by no means an actual air fryer, but tbh that was pretty obvious to me before I bought it. It can get similar results though. I am very pleased with this purchase and it should be very helpful while my kitchen is renovated and I only have a temporary kitchen to use. It also looks pretty nice and will have its place in the new kitchen. The only downside is that the power cable is very short, but this is a problem with a lot of microwaves.

The microwave oven is the right size for the kitchen well made strong it has none slip feet to grip the surface. To open the oven door has a large handle with a good grip. The colour of the microwave blends in the kitchen. Easy to install just plug in to the socket. The instructions are easily to follow. Cooking time is good depending on what you want to cook. Fits nicely in the kitchen the microwave oven is value for money pleased with the purchase.

Brilliant combination microwave. There are physical buttons that are precise & easy to press. Not those awful touch buttons that are hit & miss. It is compact for such a comprehensive appliance. There is a large handle for opening the door & not those really hard to press buttons. It can take a full size dinner plate. It has an inverter that makes it the quietest microwave I've ever had. The inverter means anything in there is microwaved evenly throughout. The price is amazing compared to the other equivalent brands. The only negative is the programming of the combination settings. You will need to keep the comprehensive user booklet with it forever. Toshiba use non-intuitive symbols for the different programmes. I'm sure they could have used short words for these programmes. However this is a small gripe for such a great appliance. I've stopped using my main kitchen oven now as I'm cooking for 2 of us. I highly recommend this appliance. It's a game changer.

Good price for easy to use microwave.very handy neat size, controls are digital and functions are easy to use. Even the clock is set quickly. Good to clean surfaces.

I have been using for a week now, a friend has the same one and recommended it. it’s well made and the instructions are easy to follow, it’s higher wattage than my old one that started to rust inside . I would definitely recommend this microwave, it’s such a good price too.

This is a super Microwave + Air fryer ++++ so many other things. Cooks Fast and easy to use. Plus it is so easy to clean. It feels very sturdy & it is still a good size.

Fantastic still reading the manual .

Good

Best Microvave+ I ever had.

The product performance and delivery time exceeded all expectations.

I purchased this Toshiba microwave just 9 months ago, drawn in by the glowing reviews and solid reputation of the brand. For the first few months, it worked exactly as expected. However, it has now suddenly stopped working without any prior issues or misuse. The most frustrating part is discovering that, because I purchased it through the Amazon Global Store, the warranty does not apply in the UAE. This crucial detail was not made clear at the point of purchase. I now find myself without any support, despite the product failing well within what should reasonably be considered its expected lifespan. As a loyal Amazon customer and someone who trusted the Toshiba name, I am extremely disappointed. I’m now left to seek out a certified technician on my own and bear the full cost of repairs — something no customer expects for a premium product in less than a year. At the very least I strongly urge both Amazon and Toshiba to revisit how warranty limitations are communicated to international customers.

It claims to be an air fryer, it even says 'air fryer' on the box. It is not an air fryer. If you want an air fryer, I guess you have to buy an air fryer. I'm sad that I don't have an air fryer even though I thought I was buying an air fryer.
