Samsung MW3500K Solo Microwave Oven, 23L Or Solo Microwave Oven 23L MS23K3513AK w/code (Via EPP / Student) More In Op

do we need tobe a student

i got the MS23K3513AK last summer on a similar discount, yet not as steep.

the first one we had to return, as there were dents and cracks so it seemed ready to microwave anyone standing in front of it..

return process was straight forward, got a good replacement unit.

pros: solid for the price, ceramic coating is nice, easy to clean, and hopefully going to stay rustfree, and the customizable pre-set timer settings are quite handy - just don't unplug it to avoid a reset. it seems adequately powerful to me.

i boil a lot of basmati rice in it, needing exactly 14 mins. with the pre-set timer, its 2 click start. my old R&H rusted terribly after doing this for a while, and only having 700w, it needed 15 mins to do the job. so 800w is definitely noticeable in effect.

cons: very dark, you can't see much thru the glass. i wished the power settings were even more customisable, i need a range between 600w and 800w to avoid burning my popcorn vs. time compromise.. most functions and buttons are never used, the automatic defrost and melting function seems inadequate so its better to experiment yourself e.g. 300w.

thats really about it - i'd totally recommend it (so far) and would have bought again easily..
alternatively i would upgrade to a model with the grill function... (edited)

for anyone considering getting one

the light is super dim,you cannot see what's inside
800W, may be in another universe, more like 500W
really slow to warm food, uneven with hot and warm/cold-ish spots.
It's cheap I guess (edited)

Well mines just arrived its a cracking bit of kit with some nice features, and its got a 2yr guarantee. Working like a champ and looks great, for £50 whats not to like, read the reviews on Argos many others agree its great. Mr Switch its a "YES" from me, thankyou you've cracked it again!

Ours broke after 13 months, just stopped heating. Also heated much slower than the previous Panasonic and current Sharp microwave. These are terrible value, disappointing its posted by @MrSwitch who normally has much higher standards.

So I have a Lebara account ,no student account .
What can I do to get this ?

Thanks OP Ordered via Lebara code still works

I have a Samsung microwave and no joke takes forever to warm food up and I bought a good model too

Is there a way to access this without a unidays account?

Great find was looking for a microwave went with the 3500k they’re both 1150w which is hard to get at this price and has better reviews with more reviews

Microwave

Thanks @MrSwitch . Been waiting for a microwave deal and time to bite the bullet. Potential cashback also.

Most reviews by actual owners are scathing yet nearly 700 degrees heat! Crazy!

Thanks MrSwitch, never knew I could just go through my age old Totum account!!

Needed a new one and this will do beautifully! ️

Thanks @MrSwitch perfect timing as my old microwave just went kaput 😁 🏼

Can get this through the blue light card app too

Quidco tracks at £2.46 on this as well..cheers Mr S (edited)

Bought one of these last year and it's a bit asthmatic. The 700w unbranded model it replaced actually cooked better.

Do these heat up as I used to have a Samsung and had hot and cold spots

I ordered one then went deeper into comments , think I will try and cancel the order ! Any one agree that this is the right thing to do !
