This microwave came with my 'off the plan' apartment purchase, and has just died after 7 years. I guess that's not a bad innings for something made in China, especially when I had a hand in its death. While on this subject: There is a REAL difference...

Similar to another reviewer, when I bought my house two years ago the newly renovated kitchen already had the Blanco microwave inbuilt to the cabinetry. Unfortunately like all of the others here the Blanco failed. It never seemed to heat properly and...

Please do not waste your money on this microwave. It has been terrible from the day it arrived. It died after 2 years and never really heated anything effectively. Buttons were not user friendly . I'm glad to be finally rid of it. Thought at the price...

When we bought our new house a couple of years ago, this brand new Blanco microwave model was installed and we thought it looked sharp with its stainless steel look. We gave our 3-yr old whirlpool microwave to some friends. This stupid microwave has...

First model died just after the warranty ran out. Went back to where we bought it from & they said they would not replace it. So i emailed Blanco & they replaced it under warranty. Second model is now dead. Seems to be a fault with the magmagnetometor....

It looks pretty, and the name 'Blanco' inspires confidence, so you buy it. Save your pennies and the heartache and go with another brand. We have had two models die on us in less than 2.5 years. The first one lasted us a week and died, we sent to the...

Very low opinion of this product. Do not buy, it sucks big time. Very faulty appliance. Wish the warranty was still valid, but going to find a model that is not going to break down.

Avoid it. Breaks down all the time and seems underpowered. A basic function such as setting a cooking time to your requirement is not straight forward.

Was OK while it worked. It seems that there are about three different brand names for the same microwave. Have seen it called Ilve ($699 rrp) Blanco ($ around $450) and NEC ($150 at Seconds World)
