Daewoo KOR6M5RR Microwave Review
The Daewoo KOR6M5RR stainless steel touch control microwave could be best described as excellent in everything it offers. It offers quality and value for money in every sense of the word.
If you, like most of us, love feeling like you’ve gotten an absolute bargain every time you look at your purchase then the Daewoo KOR6M5RR will leave you feeling pretty smug.
It combines brilliant value for money, great cooking power, lots of useful features and a sleek design to give you a great all-round experience.
Lets start with the most important aspect of the Daewoo KOR6M5RR – cooking power. With 800 watts of cooking power with 11 different levels you should have plenty of power to get your food exactly how you want it.
These power levels include 4 different settings for defrosting various types of food including bread and meat.
There are also 3 specific power levels for reheating food and drinks.
The Daewoo KOR6M5RR is also equipped with 5 autocook functions including baked potatoes and frozen veg – always handy.
To help you make the most of the cooking power, the Daewoo KOR6M5RR comes with concave reflex technology. This basically means the interior should help to distribute the microwaves more evenly resulting in food that is more evenly cooked. And indeed several user reviews mention how well it does in heating up food.
One of the things you see mentioned the most by users in what is a glowing reference list, is how easy it is to use the Daewoo KOR6M5RR.
The touch control panel is easy to understand and all the buttons are clearly labelled.
Quite helpfully the control panel also has +30 seconds button to let you easily add extra time when you need it. This is usually a very handy feature when you need to heat something up quickly or your food is not quite done to your liking when you check it.
It’s worth noting that although this is a digital microwave, it does not display the time when it is in stand-by mode. Though some have bemoaned the lack of a clock, it is a relatively small concession when you consider the overall quality and value for money that you get for this unit.
A notable benefit of the Daewoo KOR6M5RR’s standby capability is that it has an eco mode which reduces power consumption during standby. This should help with saving you money on your electricity bill as power is normally used on an appliance when it is plugged in but not in operation.
The Daewoo KOR6M5RR microwave is a 20 litre unit which would usually best suit small households and families. This could also work quite well for single person homes.
When it comes to looks, the Daewoo KOR6M5RR offers a smart and clean design whilst the stainless steel colour gives it a stylish finish.
Given the size of the unit (31.8 x 44.9 x 25.9 cm), it would work reasonably well for someone looking for a compact microwave. However, do always make sure you check how much space you have available wherever you intend to place the unit. Also consider space needed for ventilation.
Overall, the Daewoo KOR6M5RR gives you everything you could ask for if you’re looking for a microwave that does its job well with little fuss. Though it may not have lots of features, it gives you everything you probably need if it’s everyday heating and cooking simple foods that you’re after.
