The Mainstays Retro Countertop Microwave is a 0.7 cu ft, 700 W oven styled with a black window and gold-tone trim. It offers 10 power levels, quick-set menus, one-touch timing and weight or time defrost on an LED display. Its small footprint suits tight counters, dorms and retro-styled kitchens. Against rivals, it trades power and capacity for looks: 700 W warms and defrosts more slowly than the 900–1000 W units common at this size, and 0.7 cu ft holds a dinner plate but not much more. Owners rate it well for appearance and ease of use.
