I put in a baked potato and hit the sensor cook 2 per the instructions on (for some reason) the inside of the microwave and started it. It did not fully cook the potato. I called the number on the customer assistance number on the microwave and the representative couldn't figure out if there was a way to make it work better and finally said I had a defective unit and needed to return it. Unfortunately I had already thrown out the box so was unable to. It's not bad if you need a paperweight.
