My Mini-600 Watt .5 cu ft microwave died after 20 years, so I was initially looking for a cheap $70 dollar-range microwave to replace it, but when I saw this I knew this was exactly what I needed, and it was definitely worth the extra money. First, I LOVE the way it looks, it's modern and clean looking and fits in my kitchen perfectly. The 2nd thing I love is the dial/knob to set the time, turn gently right and it starts at 30 seconds, and you can dial in any exact time within seconds, or just press the green button to add 30 second increments. The 3rd thing I LOVE is the ability to MUTE ALL BEEPS with a simple press of the mute button. This stays activated until you un-mute it, or you unplug it. The 4th thing I love is the quiet-door-close. I love how gently and quietly it closes, and it's actually a very pleasing noise. Makes it seem high-end. The 5th thing I love is how easy it is to change the POWER-LEVEL, from 100% and step-down in 10% increments. This is a new feature for me and I love being able to very gently microwave things with reduced wattage. The Microwave is very powerful and heats foods really well and evenly. I definitely recommend this microwave.

The loud sounds of our old microwave might be an odd reason to have replaced it, but everything was so noisy! The button to open the door made a clunky sound, the door closing went, 'CHANK!' and every use ended with lots of beeping. This little oven does none of that. Even if you try to slam the door closed, it will gently (and quietly) close the door. What a relief!This oven is small but perfect for everything I need to do: A full-sized dinner plate fits fine, even a half-gallon of ice cream fits. I'll never microwave a turkey, so the size is great.The front controls are intuitive and easy to use. I wish we'd gotten this oven years ago. Perfect.

This microwave is compact and very pretty. Doesn't take up much room but does what it needs to do. I love how easy it is to use. Doesn't overheat foods like my previous microwave (which burned up within 6 months). I sure hope this holds up as it relatively expensive. But I do REALLY like it!

After my 13 yr old Panasonic Inverter microwave died recently, I immediately purchased another. I had read reviews and trusted the appliance after having a good experience with my old one. It was HORRIBLE! I won’t list the details. It certainly wasn’t made up to the standards of the old Panasonic. I decided to return it. Because I loved my Breville Smart Mini toaster oven, I ordered this Breville microwave. I am beyond thrilled with it. Besides looking svelte, it is QUIET! The buttons and knob are simple to use. I prefer them to a touchpad that is sometimes difficult to read and doesn’t recognize my touch. The soft close door is a joy. The Breville does not move around on the countertop just from opening or closing the door. Though I haven’t used all the cooking options, the Breville cooks well. It hasn’t yet reheated an entree to the consistency of cardboard. Every day this Breville microwave makes me happy! (I rarely review my purchases. I felt I had to praise this appliance.)

Alright, I’ll admit it—I never thought I’d get excited about a microwave. But this **Breville Compact Wave**? It’s got **style, function, and the kind of thoughtful design that makes you wonder why every other microwave still operates like it’s 1993.**Let’s start with the **look**—because yeah, that matters. This thing has a **sleek, slightly retro vibe** that gives off serious *“modern diner meets mid-century coolâ€* energy. The **smooth silver finish, clean lines, and that simple turn knob** make it feel like something that belongs in a high-end coffee shop rather than crammed between a toaster and a stack of bills on my counter. **It’s got that “effortlessly cool†aesthetic that somehow makes my kitchen feel more put together.**### **The Personal Story – A Midnight Snack, But Make It Ninja Mode**So here’s the deal: I love a **late-night snack.** Always have. But my old microwave? It was like a **one-man rock concert.** Slam the door? *BANG.* Press start? *BEEEEP BEEEEP BEEEEP!* Next thing you know, I’m standing in the kitchen, frozen like a deer in headlights, listening to my wife sigh dramatically from the bedroom.But this **Breville? Silent. Like, eerie silent.** The door **soft closes like it’s sneaking out past curfew,** and—brace yourself—you can actually **mute the beeps.** I repeat: **you can silence the microwave.** It’s like someone at Breville saw into my soul and said, *“You deserve to heat up your food in peace.â€*### **Why I’m Loving It:**- **Sleek, retro-inspired design** – It looks way more premium than your standard “white plastic box†microwave.- **Soft-close door** – No more accidental kitchen jump scares.- **Mute button!** – Perfect if you’re heating up leftovers while someone’s sleeping.- **Simple controls, but actually useful ones** – One-touch buttons for reheating, popcorn, beverages, and defrosting actually *work* the way they should.- **Fits a full dinner plate** – It’s compact, but not “useless compact.â€### **A Few Small Trade-Offs:**- **It’s 900 watts, not 1200.** You’ll wait a little longer, but it heats evenly, so I’ll take that over boiling hot edges and an ice-cold middle.- **A bit on the pricey side.** But for the **design, quietness, and ease of use,** I’d still say it’s worth it.### **Final Verdict:**If you want a microwave that **actually looks cool,** heats food **without sounding like a construction site,** and lets you make a midnight burrito **without waking the whole house**, this is **the one.****4.5 stars—would absolutely buy again.**

Breville microwave has the most intuitive/friendly and smart control panel (as it should be). I love it.

This microwave is actually attractive. I don’t have a shelf or an overhead area in my kitchen to put in the microwave so I put it on a wooden kitchen cart. You can turn the sound off on this microwave so it’s super quiet. It works perfectly. it’s unobtrusive and modern looking, anything I’ve ever bought from Breville is great

Attractive and works well. Soft close doors are fun.

I recently bought this microwave for my home. I really like the soft close door and ability to turn off all sounds. It’s easy to use and is well designed. Build quality is very high as you’d expect at this price point. Overall I’m very happy with it.

I like the smaller size of this microwave. However, buyers should know that the power is considerably less than larger microwaves. For example, our old microwave took one minute to re-heat a cup of coffee, whereas this small model takes 2 minutes. Otherwise, it's a good microwave.
