- TOSHIBA ML-EM09PA(SS) Small Microwave Oven with 6 Auto Menus, Mute Function & Child Lock, LED Lighting, Perfect for Apartments & Dorms, 0.9 Cu Ft, 10.6 Inch Removable Turntable, 900W, Stainless Steel

This Toshiba microwave is exactly what I needed. It's compact enough to fit perfectly on my small kitchen counter, but still powerful enough to heat food quickly and evenly. The six auto menus are super convenient. I use the popcorn and reheat settings all the time and they work flawlessly. The design looks sleek and modern with the black stainless finish and the control panel is easy to read and use. It's also surprisingly quiet compared to other small microwaves I have owned. Whether I am heating leftovers, defrosting meat or making a quick snack it handles everything without a problem for its size performance and price. This is a fantastic little microwave. Highly recommended for apartments dorms or anyone short on counter space. Lili K.

I was after a cheap small microwave. This microwave saved me a fair bit of counter space from the previous one that was here. What I didn't expect is that it is my favorite microwave ever. Down sides - it's small (positive for me) it is lower watts so longer cook times, and the display is bright. Up sides - The beep can be disabled and the display toggled. The instruction manual was worth skimming for codes for options, other than that everything was intuitive. Using this microwave is awesome. No beeps at all once disabled. It just shuts off when done. The display can be toggled off by pressing the stop button. And when you press a number key by default it does that many minutes saving a button press. Of course the start button adds 30s making it easy to quickly get to a time. I wanted a cheap space saving one, but to my surprise found my favorite microwave.

This is a really nice oven. It small, but will properly heat a frozen pot pie. Easy to use, good instructions. I like it very much. My only complaint is that the wheeled ring that supports the glass turntable is a bit flimsy and light and if you are not careful about place things on the turntable or removing them the turntable slides of the ring. This becomes a problem if you cannot stand to see the ring and turntable to get it positioned properly.

Good unit. Smallest footprint I could find. Fits in a 12-1/2" deep cabinet and stands 9-1/4" tall. Perfect for my office need. I like the option to deactivate the child lock and to activate mute mode. For small task like heating up lunch this works perfect. Not a unit for primary food heating in home kitchen.

The microwave is nice and large. It works like a champ for all things microwavy. There was a surprising claim and a dedicated button on the control panel that says "Frozen Pizza" and the manual even shows to place the frozen pizza directly on the glass turntable, up to 16 inches. Knowing what I do of physics, my doubt meter was clicking. I got a frozen pizza. I placed it as suggested and used the Frozen Pizza option, which displayed the Sensor Cooking feature as well was activated. This is the ONLY feature that fails. The toppings were cooked perfectly. The crust? A floppy flimsy uncooked mess that wanted to roll up like a cheap newspaper. Everything works as suggested except for that ONE thing, the frozen pizza button is a bust. Do not use that button with a real live frozen pizza unless you are intending to make a mess. That is why it earned 3 stars instead of 5. It got my pizza loving hopes up, and it murdered a perfectly innocent pizza in a most terrible manner. Veggies, taters, everything else, popcorn buttons and their bag sizes. all worked flawlessly. Like stated, if it's for the microwave, you're good. RIP frozen pizzas. It was a nice idea, but dough doesn't cook right in the microwave particles. *Upon Edit on 9/29/25* Nearly a year later, a few things dawned on me that told me to come here and re-do my 3 star to a well deserved 5 star review and here is why! First and foremost, the frozen pizza issue. I mistook the concept for an 'unbaked' frozen pizza. This is not the frozen pizza they were talking about. It's about an already cooked frozen pizza from the freezer, saved from a previous meal. The baked dough is defrosted but the toppings get the cook up and is done perfectly. Why this matters? Regular microwaves tend to keep cooking already baked frozen bread, and makes it rock hard. We know how microwaves do this to bread products. Reheat a cold muffin, the moment it cools off to being edible, it hardens into a hockey puck. This microwave will not do that. Second thing I noticed and it took a bit. The turntable sensor technology is truly OUTSTANDING! How so? Put a bowl, plate or cup on the turntable that is not perfectly centered. It turns while cooking or reheating, no matter the setting, when the timer finishes, the turntable keeps going until the food is at its closest to the front door so it's easier to remove. That is truly awesome! As I am in a wheelchair, not having to lean forward an inch more to reach the heated plate/bowl/cup because it is right there in the front and closest to you is a thing of true dedication to service! NICE WORK, TOSHIBA! So from 3 to 5 stars and it's well earned. I love this microwave and if you do not buy it, you are missing out! Worth every penny I spent!

I bought this microwave almost 6 months ago, and my family and I love it. It heats so evenly and reliably, is ridiculously simple to use, and has a lot of space inside for large dishes. Also, we love that the finish beep is way less annoying than other microwaves, AND it can be muted altogether if you still just don’t want to wake anyone up while you’re midnight snacking. This relatively inexpensive microwave was bought to replace a much more expensive microwave that, honestly, didn’t perform as well (and died way too soon). I read a lot of reviews on both Amazon and websites that tested it against other microwaves before I was comfortable picking this one. I was honestly surprised at how much Toshiba, of all brands, came out in the lead when it came to microwaves. So, I took a chance and made this purchase with my fingers crossed. My kids and husband actually laughed when this showed up, and there were a lot of South Park Toshiba Handybook references (IYKYK). We even dubbed the new microwave the “Toshiba Handybox.” All laughs aside, the “Toshiba Handybox” is out here killing’ it. This is easily the best microwave we’ve bought, especially for the price. If you’re microwave shopping right now, stop worrying and add this to your cart. You’ll love it.

nice microwave ; I replaced my old microwave with this and glad about it. I worried it might be too small to hold dinner plate size things because my old 700 watt one didn't have quite enough room with a big plate but this one has a larger turntable than my old one did. Plus this is 900 watts so it's a move up for me. Looks nice on the counter.
