No real price bracket, but she is looking for value for money, so lets say < $400AUD. I'm guessing the 20% off bing lee might be the way to go here.
Must have an inverter. No need for convection.
Bigger is better (oh grandma, the shame!)
I would appreciate input as microwaves are not really my hobby toy of interest to research for hours.
Have read good and bad things about the Sharp R330YS, and apparently everybody hates Panasonic. Some people recommend just going Kmart brands too. I'm a little lost.
Thanks all.
R350YS. Got it for around $190 from JB. Best microwave I've owned in my life. It's huge, 1200W and heats everything up in like half the time of my old microwave.
