For a microwave with a price as small as its footprint, check out the Amazon Basics Microwave 0.7. This budget-friendly option performs admirably across all our metrics. Despite its low power output, it heats pre-prepared frozen items with ease. It is simple and easy to use, with the added benefit of being compatible with Alexa-enabled smart home devices. 
We noticed some hot spots in our heat map testing, and food takes longer to heat up in this smaller, less powerful option. Its interface, while mostly user-friendly, requires some getting used to. The Alexa-enabled smart home capabilities also require some additional setup, and some of our testers wondered if it's worth the hassle. All in all, this offering from Amazon Basics is one of our top suggestions to anyone looking for a more economical option.

 Although they were prompt in their reply they immediately sent out a replacement and requested I send mine back upon receiving. All in all it was a nice gesture, but now more leg work for me without even giving me my options. I emailed back asking about those options in case this new microwave didn’t work and received a weirdly formatted and poorly written response that wasn’t even finished and had no signature. It stated that it would not be defective and then ended with, “If, In case the” 

 Well, guess what amazon? I hooked this one up last night and used it this morning, once, and it’s still soaking wet inside this afternoon. While packing the other one up to send back water was actually leaking out of the microwave, down my arms, and into the box.  Normally Amazon is absolutely fantastic with their customer service, but I think this microwave was poorly made and has a design flaw with its ventilation that they would rather not address since they probably have an over stock of product. That second email I received seems to have confirmed it seeing as whoever wrote it just seemed annoyed and rushed to reply without even finishing it

 You’d thinking venting it with the door open would held too, but it doesn’t. This thing collects condensation, and for me, the use of Alexa just isn’t worth that.  So, after fighting with this microwave and it’s wetness for a few months, I finally contacted Amazon about my concern. Maybe my item was defective, or maybe just a design flaw entirely

Save time with Alexa, spend more time cleaning...

  So despite it still running and everything…I’m switching to another microwave that can actually work for me. It’s just not enough and it’s been this way for a long time but I’ve put up with it until now. I need something more powerful.

Good design but awful execution

 I don't personally care much about the popcorn feature, but it would have been made a LOT more useful all around if the microwave had included a weight plate inside to measure the ounces itself. This may be a problem of magnetics, but if it were solved that would have brought this microwave to a whole new level. As it is, the vaunted weight cooking features are kind of useless for how much work you have to do when you could say, just read the popcorn bag.  Overall, it cooks if not so great and I did get it for a cheap price

  If you're in the market for a new microwave you're probably better off with a slightly more powerful one. I'd wait until the next generation of this, unless it's already abandonware.

 This doesn't lend very well to a great microwaving experience! I now realize this is a 700w microwave as opposed to a normal 1000w plus microwave, but I'm not sure why we're lacking the necessary watts for the average foodstuff?  Wifi hookup was a bit tricky mostly because my kitchen has a bad connection and the app is a little hard to use. I managed to get it working but every now and then, when comcast decides to kill my wifi for maintenance or whatever, the microwave does not automatically reset. Instead Alexa unhelpfully informs me it can't do that! Until of course I unplug and replug the whole thing. Compared to google products, which reset like they were never disconnected, this can be a bit frustrating

I like the compact size and voice control but the power and heating in general leaves a lot to be desired. I hadn't used a microwave in 7ish years before I purchased this, just because I already had an echo and it was at a discount at the time. I didn't really know what to expect, but I started finding that everything would take an additional 2-3 minutes beyond the recommended time to heat properly. I started noticing that sections would be colder than other sections

Neat, but weak

... Since I had to investigate and figure out what was wrong with the microwave Amazon sold me

 But I minus 2 stars because it came with the wrong wheels. How many people won't figure that out and live with a plate that slips all the time? That's the thing..

 But now I know how the wrong size of wheels make the turntable slip all over the place...

. Has nobody selling it ever used it themselves? Was it returned with wrong wheels, or are they giving everybody wrong sized wheels? How many people are just using it with the wrong size and having the turntable slip all over the place, then?  I don't know how this mistake came about or why, but I'll tell you why it ticks me off..

Comes with wrong wheels

I've had this microwave a little over 2 years. Its tiny. However, it still needs to vent, so must have space at least on the left side.  I believe the reviewer that said hers melted the bag or set on fire

 However, it still needs to vent, so must have space at least on the left side.  I believe the reviewer that said hers melted the bag or set on fire. Normal popcorn bags are too big and get stuck. I keep watch and move them, but the panel does get overheated

  I wouldn't purchase this microwave again. I would recommend it only because of the price. I got it on prime day, so it was a much better deal and actually worth what I paid.

Budget friendly

  Understand that this was a low end unit power-wise at 700 watts so it took longer to heat stuff than a more expensive higher power one would, but while it worked it worked good and worked good with Alexa also.  I am wondering if the reason it is currently not available is that they realize the problem and might be working to make an improved version that lasts longer.

Before it shut down and stopped working yesterday I might have given it at least 4 stars at the point in time right before it stopped working. I gave it 3 stars now because it should have lasted longer than roughly 3 1/2 years for an appliance of this type.  Got this one back in Feb of 2019 and it worked great until yesterday when it kept shutting down, checking reviews I saw others had the same problem, the unit would overheat on the top right side and I guess when the heat built up too much it shut the unit down.  Normally I want such appliances to last more than roughly just 3 1/2 years, but not super bad considering the low price and all the use we got out of it

Very good while it lasted considering the low price !

I'm just glad I was standing there when 30 seconds into reheating beans it suddenly started sparking and smoking and caught fire. Plugged the plug quickly. I could've easily walked away or it could've been my son using it when it happened.

Dangerous! Suddenly caught FIRE!

  9 out of 10 times, it does exactly what you want it to. When it works, it is magical and a time savor. I scoffed at the idea that this would make my life easier, but it rather nice to be able to walk away from the microwave and on to the next task while setting the cooking time. Much like the first time I asked my phone to call someone or I paid for something with my phone, this feels like living in the future

Alexa integration works great... almost every time

 5. This is a small microwave, typically what you use in a dorm room. It fits a regular sized plate, nothing larger.  Overall, this is a simple microwave

 The Alexa integration is a feature but it's more of a gimmick or a way to show off with your friends and family. Of course, that's how it applies to me. This could be quite useful for the sight impaired or if you just have dirty hands to press on the buttons or if you can't figure out the manual controls of your microwave. So whether you want to use voice control or just push buttons, this will get the small heating/ cooking jobs done!

Just a regular microwave with a delightful bonus - Alexa!

A nice microwave, but a bit disappointing
