Can anyone recommend a countertop microwave with a SILENT DOOR?
Can anyone recommend a countertop microwave with a SILENT DOOR?
UPDATE: purchased the Breville “the Compact Wave” and it is so quiet. I love it!! https://www.crateandbarrel.com/breville-the-compact-wave-microwave/s226034
This might sound crazy, but when the kids are asleep I hold the microwave door button in as I shut it. It's pretty darn quiet
Good idea. What are you microwaving at night? Now I’m hungry!
Buy the thinnest adhesive weather stripping you can find, and stick a patch in the appropriate place between the door and latch area. That's the zone that makes the KERCHUNK.

I also never understood why microwaves need to be so loud. My dishwasher, hell even my washing machine are very quiet in comparisson.
They need to dissipate a lot of waste heat from the magnetron and have to use a fan.
Those other appliances don’t generate a lot of heat in a small space that must be air cooled.
I think they mean when closing the door.
and one with no beeping when I beep the buttons, fucking nazis and their narc microwaves.

That there can turn off the beeping. My wife made a note for me to remind me how.
LG is really trying to impress people with their inverters. I had to read the owners manual to figure out what the hell the inverter button was. It's just Defrost or Cook buttons with "inverter" in front of the names.
Irrelevant, but for those who care: LGs "smart inverter" just manages the temperature of the inverter circuit for efficiency. Cooler electronics are generally better.
On my Toshiba microwave, if I press “8” for a couple seconds, it turns off all the beeping
That was a huge selling point for me lol
My IKEA microwave has a settings menu where you can disable the bleeps, the sweeps, and the creeps.
Got this as a wedding gift over 3 years ago.
Absolutely love it and the door is self closing. You can slam it and it catches itself and shuts on its own. I assume that is what you mean.
Thank you. Will check it out!
Just purchased the step down version of this. Love it!
Put an extra regular microwave in the garage/den/faraway room so the noise isn't an issue
Reason I’m asking is I am wanting to buy one. I find most of them so jolting I have put off having one for a long time.
This one here. https://www.lg.com/au/microwave-ovens/lg-MJ3966ABS
The door opens from the top down and is opened and closed by hand without latches etc so its quiet.
And you can turn off the beep
Thank you. Will check it out. Looks like it may not be available in US where I live.
Well because I've wrecked my sleep schedule and need a pick me up to finish the days chores I'm usually microwaving leftover coffee. I need help haha
