Hotpoint Over The Range Microwave Manual: What You Need To Know

When shopping for a new over-the-range (OTR) microwave, it's essential to consider the potential problems that may arise with your purchase. According to our survey, five percent of OTR microwaves had issues with noise and six percent had faulty control panels. Additionally, many owners reported problems with uneven heating, excessive noise, and doors that didn't lock correctly.

In our latest survey, we found that 13 brands earned a middle rating of Good for owner satisfaction, while no brand received an Excellent or Very Good rating. Seven more brands received a Good reliability rating, which is high enough to retain their eligibility for recommendation by Consumer Reports. However, nine other brands earned a Very Good reliability rating.

When choosing an OTR microwave, it's crucial to select a reliable brand. Brands like Ikea and Sharp earned an Excellent rating for predicted reliability, while Electrolux, Jenn-Air, and Samsung are more likely to develop problems or break at a higher rate than their competitors.

Replacing an OTR model can be a bit of an ordeal due to the need to unbolt it from the wall and cabinets. However, with a reliable brand, you can rest assured that your new microwave will provide years of trouble-free use.

If you're short on counter space and like the idea of having a range hood that doubles as a microwave, an OTR model may be the perfect choice for you. With its ability to double as a range hood, it's a strategic selection for those who value convenience and functionality.
