Arrived quickly. Came with detailed how to use booklet. Still learning what's what and getting to know how long things take to cook. Cooked fish in breadcrumbs on conventional setting. Delicious. Safer to use this Combination microwave than to bend to use an oven. This is why I bought it. I think this is fantastic value for money considering all that it does. Can't wait to try out grill on sausages! The colour green is as onscreen. The door is easy to open and close. Operationally it is not too difficult to get the hang of. I was used to only using a very simple microwave. I was concerned that I might not be able to get the hang of things, but I have. I admit I put the oven on conventional whilst a plastic microwave lid was inside.

I bought this to replace a microwave oven over 30 years old when it expired. The 900 W output makes a big difference, not that common on basic no frills microwave. I was keen to get another microwave with straightforward controls, as I have better things to do in the kitchen than stand around pressing buttons. This does the trick even better than the one it replaced: no door open button, no start button: perfect.The big let down is the very poor design of the control knobs. Look at the first photo. Can you see where the knobs are pointing? Not easy at a glance across the kitchen. Fortunately it is easily fixed by applying carefully shaped insulating tape to them (2nd photo).

This microwave arrived very quickly and was packaged well.Nothing to assemble, just put into position and you are ready to go.I love all things retro and especially green! This is such a nice colour and adds pop in my vintage style kitchen. I love the controls and how simple they are to use. You basically just choose the settings on the upper dial and then dial the minutes in at the bottom.You can also set according to weight and that is easily explained in the accompanying booklet.It cooks beautifully and evenly. It has a really nice bright light inside too.I'm very happy with the size. I had a really large one and had been looking for one that was a nice medium size. This is perfect.

This microwave is amazing, what more can I say? It’s small and compact and even though it’s only 800 W, It packs a powerful punch it heats up soups, Stews, and other frozen foods with ease. There are multiple functions with only two dials on the microwave, one to set the function (including auto-cooking) which ranges from re-heating up a drink to defrosting your next meal, warming up bread (to make it as fresh as the day it was baked), rice to steaming veg You can even change the power settings which range from medium-low which is 40 percent medium-high which is 80 percent and 100 Percent being the highest setting which is obviously 800 W.I have two concerns though, 1, when in use,

I purchased this product at Christmas 2014 - I love the style of it and the colour - it fits well into my kitchen - the design is compact and stylish, however I do find that the controls are a little complicated to figure out and tend to just "do my own thing" if I'm honest. Also another little niggle is that when you use it I find that it tends to fill with fluid at the bottom - ie the steam doesn't seem to escape properly - so you end up with a puddle in the turntable well every time you use it - but this is a minor problem as over all it is a good efficient microwave and well priced. Also I have dexterity problem (I have arthritis)

Very stylish looking microwave. Simple to use and roomier than you would think, it certainly takes my full size dinner plates and the large size of pyrex bowl. So far I havn't found anything that I have wanted to put in there that hasn't fit! Works really well, it's far better at defrosting than my old microwave. The only mildly irritating thing is that when it's finished whatever it's doing it will give three loud beeps but then repeat said loud beeps every three minutes until you go and open the door. It's good in that you wont forget anything but I often put something in to defrost and then leave it whilst I go and do something else - the beeps then get quite annoying.

Love the microwave and I did want the full range ie orange kettle toaster, looked on amazon for them but none here, so went on Swan website and they are out of stock with no due back in stock date, which means I'll have to find an other make of the Orange kettle and toaster, I am very unhappy with this as it will be hard to get a colour match.Update I held of getting a different make of toaster and kettle and managed to order it from amazon some good months later ??? so now very happy my toaster arrived 5 days early, still waiting on the kettle, the only downside at the moment is I can't find anymore Swan orange kitchen equipment like the bin, bread bin,

When we got a new kitchen I wanted a green microwave to match the new decor. My choice was limited so I ordered this one (though would have preferred 900w).On opening the box I was pleased with the design, but thought it looked too small. Our previous microwave was an oven/grill too, so it was quite a bit larger, and I was worried it wouldn't fit our needs (family of 4 with two hungry boys!)I had it all packed up to send back, then thought at the last minute that I'd try it out. I'm glad I did because it's actually just right. It fits a dinner plate and one of my large baking bowls (just) which is all I need really.It looks really smart with the rest of my green appliances and is easy to use

We bought this in a sale for £60ish, and for that price we are very happy with our purchase. It looks stylish and works perfectly with our kitchen.Assembly was simply, amazing pug and play really, and with a quick wipe down, you are good to go.Appreciating its only a 800w microwave, I have to say I notice this when using, always have to put in for a little longer that recommended cooking instruction so would say it’s not that powerful.It works for us, we have patience, and for the money, we are extremely happy with our purchase at this price. I wouldn’t recommend if was priced much higher because you can get a 1,000w for not much more.Good brand, good purchase and so far so good .z

I am delighted with the look of my new microwave, which is far more stylish and takes up less space than my old one. When in microwave mode it is louder than I am used to, but not overpoweringly so. Being relatively light, it does have a tendency to slide across the worktop when I pull the door open, but I have cured this by putting a small piece of blue tack under each of the front feet. Also, the notch on the selector knob indicating which mode has been selected is a little difficult to see with my poor eyesight, but again I have cured this by sticking a small sliver of sticky black paper where the notch is. So, a few minor drawbacks but overall I am very pleased.

I spent ages choosing this microwave as my last one lasted 11 years and it didn't give me a day's problem. I couldn't find the same make and wanted a retro style, so I finally opted for this one. As soon as it was out of the box I was really happy with my choice. It's a beautiful looking piece of equipment! Really compact and stylish. The cream colour is really rich and it looks fabulous in my kitchen. I made a big jacket potato today and it came out perfectly done and piping hot in 10 minutes. No hassle. Here's hoping it lasts as well as the last one. As usual with Amazon it arrived quickly and well packed. No complaints!

I love the colour and size of this small retro blue microwave. It fits perfectly in to my flat giving me more surface space after my last combination giant. Easy and quick to use with just a turn dial to increase the seconds timer, a nice bright internal light and clock function. Ideal for someone who eats microwave meals and space is an issue. Measure your plates before purchasing if you want to put them in as it might be squeeze, I haven't tried them. My only negative comment would be the handle is bit plasticky, I would prefer a sturdy metal one but overall I love this item and wouldn't change it.

Such a beautiful microwave. I know that having to try to find out all the dimensions and where the vents are on this microwave it was a pain in the arse. If anybody wants to know where the air vents are on this microwave don't hesitate to get in touch, seeing as the pictures and info on amazon or any other website for that matter, seem to be so limited. It's a beautiful looking microwave and works well, i think Swan should champion this beautiful retro microwave more. If you're looking for a super powerfull microwave then this is not for you, I find it perfect for what i need in my home.

I am more than happy with my purchase, the ad was very clear about the light scratch on the top, and it is slight! The parcel arrived on the day stated and the device works perfectly, looks good and is very powerful and responsive, all my regular food is cooked in much less time with the 900watt motor! A definite plus in our fast and busy lifestyle, love the retro look too,alongside the look there is also the manual dials which are not only stylish, but very easy to use and understand for those not so technically minded such as those with learning disabilities etc.
