My old microwave died shortly before New Years, not having one is driving me nuts! If anyone sees a good deal on one advertised or perhaps a clearance deal at a major retailer, we have most of them in the Phoenix area. TIA

I too am looking for new counter top microwave. Mine was broken in a move to Texas. Not even sure on what brands are good. It's been 15 years sinced I purchased one. Not even sure on what features are now available on microwave. Help.

The microwave where I work blew over the holidays as well. I wonder if it is a consipracy. :D

We replaced it with a GE 1.3 cu.ft./1200 watt. Model #JES1358WL from Walmart.

Our microwave gets used A LOT. This was the best one I could find (on short notice) for the price. $99.00. So far it is getting rave reviews from my co-workers.

Target is clearancing this one http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/shop/Home-Appliances/Microwave-Ovens/Prestige-Countertop/Built-In-Microwaves/model.NN-SD787S_11002_7000000000000005702

I bought one yesterday for $37.xx (75% off).
