Kenwood Microwave K25MB12

The machine performed well for 22 months and just went dead. It was not in use at the time. Swapped the plug fuse but no result, not even the very useful clock lit up.

Previous machines lasted much longer.

While I was completely happy with the operation of this microwave during the time that I owned it, after only 14 months it had a complete power failure. ( I suspect it was an internal fuse that blew, but disproportionately expensive to get it repaired compared to buying a replacement). As my previous 'cheap' microwaves had both lasted over 10 years, I was disappointed by its lifespan, so would not recommend it. Other owners seem to have had similar problems but not sure what percentage failure rate is for this product.
