Basic microwaving terrific. 

Needs light colored interior. I  have to shutoff all lights in kitchen to monitor hot chocolate, oatmeal and other liquids to monitor for overflow. Not an issue with old microwave with light interior.

Timer is nothing but a general kitchen timer; you cannot use it to enter cook time AND stand time. Extremely disappointing as I have used the one on my old microwave 1 to 2  times a day, seven days a week for five years.  A timer was one of my requirements, but this one worthless for my purpose microwaving.

So far Express cooking of no value, it starts as soon as enter first number. For instance, enter a 2 on Express cook and you get two seconds. No time to enter say 20 seconds or 2 minutes.
