“Died after 4 years”
I purchased the Kenmore Elite model (Advantium 2.0) in November 2005. Sears installed it. The interior light went out within 12 months. The microwave itself stopped working last week (used for 4 years mostly to heat frozen dinners). Used convection portion couple of times a year. Was heating something using convection setting when the unit just stopped working. Have Sears repair coming out tomorrow ($129 plus parts to fix). I had the GE model in another home and liked it better, but it was only 2 years old when I moved. For the price, this was a disappointing product.
Update: It cost about $160 to fix this unit. The repairman knew right away what was wrong. He was also nice enough to install the light bulb I had purchased a couple years ago but couldn't figure out how to install (came with no directions nor was there anything I could find on line to tell me how to replace the bulb).
