Expert opinion

I have had the pleasure of reviewing the Toshiba EM131A5C BS 1.2 Cubic Foot Countertop Microwave. This microwave is a great choice for those looking for a basic, yet powerful microwave to fit their countertop needs.

The EM131A5C BS has a sleek black stainless steel exterior, making it stylish enough to fit any kitchen décor. The interior cavity measures 13.07 x 15 x 9.5 inches, and the turntable is 12.4 inches in diameter, providing plenty of room to cook larger items or multiple dishes at once. It has 10 power levels and 1100 watts of power, allowing you to adjust the heat level of your food and cook it quickly and efficiently. It also features pre programmed sensor menus for optimal heating of popular foods such as pizza, potatoes, veggies, and more.

The control panel is easy to read with large digital displays for each setting that can be easily adjusted with just the press of a button. There are also one touch start options for popcorn and two defrost settings custom or one pound auto defrost making it easy to quickly reheat leftovers or frozen food without having to guess at how long it should be cooked for. The sound on/off option allows you to mute the buzzer if desired and there s even an Eco Mute feature that helps save energy by turning off after 30 seconds of inactivity.

The EM131A5C BS is a great choice for those looking for a basic microwave that offers all the necessary functions without breaking the bank. It s perfect for college students living in dorms who need something small enough to fit on their desk but still powerful enough to cook meals quickly and efficiently, as well as anyone else who simply needs something small but reliable to fit their countertop needs. The pre programmed sensor menus make it easy to get started cooking right away without having to worry about adjusting temperatures or times manually, while the one touch start options make popping popcorn or defrosting food quick and easy with minimal effort required from you.

Overall, I think the Toshiba EM131A5C BS 1.2 Cubic Foot Countertop Microwave is an excellent choice for those looking for an affordable yet reliable microwave that can handle all their basic cooking needs without taking up too much space in their kitchen or apartment
