Good
I bought this on Wednesday and it’s been working fine

Fantastic microwave, just one problem!
I bought a Clockworks microwave from Argos, do the designers actually try them out? You cannot see what number or item you're on as there is no white dot on the dials. I had to cut a piece of white tape and put it on the dials to show where it is. There is a mark but it's not very visible on the dials.

Happy it works well

Dee, 35 - 44
Does what it says on the box
Serves it's purpose but the control knobs are very difficult to turn - the level & timer indicators are very hard to see, could be improved by having a coloured marker or arrow to show where you have turned to

Small but mighty
I bought this microwave a few weeks ago it looks smart and is simple to use. It heats things up evenly and can also defrost. It is compact with plenty of power and the turntable is easy to remove to clean. Great value for the price.

Hello Kessex.
Cookworks 700W Manual Microwave - Black:
There is no official energy rating (A–G) for any microwave. Efficiency is typically judged by wattage (e.g. 700W) and how the appliance is used, rather than a labelled energy class.
