My parents had one of the first microwave ovens in the small town I was
raised in. It was a Litton. People use to come over and my parents would
show them how fast it could boil water, cook a hot dog, or freshen up some
old bread. It was great for defrosting or warming left-overs, but that was
about it.

My wife has been out doing some comparisons between the different brands
and is sold on a Quasar. The reason she wants a microwave is to cut down on
her time in the kitchen, by using the microwave to cook the meals with.
Her reasons for choosing the Quasar  are; 1) it cooks from the bottom as
does a coventional oven. 2) it cooks fairly evenly. 3) it has a humidity
and temperature sensors. 4) life time of free cooking classes.

How many of you out there use your microwave ovens for cooking meals? 
What brand do you have and what do you like and dislike about it? 
Do you have a $500 bread warmer?
I will post the results to the net if there is enough demand.
