    Re: Accidentally left a teaspoon in the microwave.

    Thanks. Seems to work OK, and this suggests it shouldn’t be a problem.

    Re: Smoke coming from microwave.

    Had a quick look at some microwaves.

    http://www.panasonic.co.uk/site/en_GB/c … -SD251WBPQ

    At first I thought these two were exactly the same apart frome the colour (I prefer white) but the white appears to lack Auto Weight Cook, Auto Weight Reheat & Auto Weight Chaos Defrost, but when I went on Curry’s site it says the white one has an Auto Weight Censor (which it doesn’t mention on the panasonic site) would that amount to practically the same thing as the other features?

    And the white one costs £10 more than the silver one, for less features?

    I’m not wedded to the colour if it’s the better microwave – it was a Which best buy 2011, out of stock at the moment though unlike the white.

    Or if anyone has a better suggestion!

    Re: Dead oven

    Don’t have a WORKING conventional oven, amounts to the same thing – I am ovenless.

    When you say have I checked the wall switch do you mean have I checked it’s on (yes it is) or do you mean have I checked the wiring inside switch (no). Like I said it was working the other week so it’d be surprising if it was that? I’ve checked the wiring connecting the oven, that seems OK.

    Cheers.

    Re: Smoke coming from microwave.

    No as I said cook not reheat. It’s a 950w oven some recipes say 20minutes!

    Anyway I tried but as it was making a strange crackly noise I don’t think I’ll risk a burnt kitchen.

    Thanks anyway!

    Re: Cleaning an oven.

    Cheers. There’s a thin silver rod at the back of the oven, I assume that’s the thermostat? I got some oven cleaner on that but wiped it off so hope it’s OK.
