I got my Samsung microwave from Singapore, six years back. Its still going strong and there has not been a single complaint. I would recommend you go for a Samsung microwave. Samsung also has very good after sales service and I feel that is very important. Go for a microwave which also has the grill feature. It is very helpful. Microwaves are very helpful in daily cooking. You can boil noodles, pasta and rice in just 10 mins. All you need is a microwave cooker which is freely available in the market nowadays. Even making tea has never been this enjoyable. If you are lazy person like me, just boil the water and pop in some sugar cubes and a tea-bag and milk and bingo there is piping hot tea for you in less than 2 minutes. Microwaves are really helpful in daily life and are extremely addictive. So go in for a microwave which has an extensive dealership for after sales service like Samsung or Whirlpool. Happy cooking.
