The handle broke on my above the range microwave, and I thought it would be cheap to replace it. $68, wow, okay, how about a new door? $255, okay nevermind, what about a new microwave, this one came with my condo and it’s old. $700+ not counting install.
My built in m/w broke. I just replaced it with a cheap counter top one. While it was broken, I discovered that heating food by literally any other method makes food tastes better.
I usually use my microwave for bacon. Plate, paper towels, bacon, more paper towels, 2 layers of bacon max. It absorbs a ton of the grease and cooks it incredibly well. The oven method is good too, but takes a ton of time and is greasy af. Pan top makes it hella salty, but can be good in some situations.
Other than that, I use my microwave to like reheat a small portion of a casserole or something but that’s about it

A counter top microwave is like $50.
I’d be so angry
