Fridgidaire Gallery Series: Black Over the Range Microwave Review

JR Smith
Upon blowing my last one up, I decided buying a newer, sleeker, more up-to-date model of microwave was in order. I choose the Frigidaire Gallery Series Black Over the Range Microwave, yes it is a mouth full. Not surprisingly it also does what a majority of other microwaves can do. It can pop my popcorn, heat up some frozen sandwiches and accidentally blow up hot dogs after they've been heated for to long. I can even watch hungrily as my food is rotated under the glow of the microwave bulbs while slowly getting cancer from the low emission of radiation that comes for the bulbs. The big difference is this microwave does all this much, much faster.

The Fridgidaire Gallery Series Black Over the Range Microwave is a powerhouse. It can cook all my leftovers about two or three times faster than before. Furthermore, there are features for this microwave that I wasn't even aware existed on any other microwave in the world. This thing can be programmed for four cooking stages meaning that it can defrost, heat on low, heat on high, and eventually nuke any food you'd like right from the beginning commands. It also has the ability to remember the cooking settings you entered, leaving it unnecessary to remember how you reheated that previous batch of Ramon noodle. Not that it takes much memory to do such a procedure but still, the option is there.

A child lock is even provided! I never would have thought of it (nor do I need it) but I guess that's what modern innovation brings. Large-print buttons are also provided with the Frigidaire Gallery Series Black Over the Range Microwave for those who have trouble seeing without glasses or those who simply like the ability to press buttons with a large stick from far away. A Spanish mode is also included for those who may be interested.

Unfortunately, this beast of a microwave is quiet expensive. Any particular model will run you over two-hundred and fifty dollars. It does, of course, come with a warranty, so if it breaks it will be fixed. I haven't had any problems with mine as of this writing. The size is also a plus. It's advertised at 1.6 cubic feet, which is mighty impressive if you ask me. Overall, would have to highly recommend the Fridgidaire Gallery Series Black Over the Range Microwave for all your leftover needs.
