Review on πŸ”§ Microwave Oven Repairing Part - 2 Pack Waveguide Cover Mica Plates Sheets Compatible with Frigidaire 5304464061 by Justin Sherman

Cheap and works.

I rely too much on my microwave. I discovered this as soon as it started failing. I was just minding my own business when the nuclear apocalypse happened. The microwave oven crackled, sparkled, and generally did everything to instill fear in the consumer. I was stuck in a culinary impasse, so I had to act. So I called my mechanic. I mean, repairs can't be too expensive, right? Not correct. The repair technician told me that a single call to service would cost $225. Then when you add the work and details it will be a few hundred dollars more. The microwave itself was less than the charge to call for service. I couldn't find a replacement model that would fit the space, so I ended up buying a cheap tabletop microwave while I was considering my options. I started googling my microwave's symptoms and the waveguide diagnosis popped up. However, my mechanic scared me to death when he told me some horror stories about microwave repairs. It's a very dangerous job, folks. I decided to buy this part and try to fix it myself. When I received it it was so easy to pull out the old waveguide and insert the new one. There are no tools. Easy. I FIXED IT. Now everyone in my house thinks I'm a skilled handyman. I didn't say how easy it was, so I'm just going to enjoy this achievement for a while. Verdict: It's cheap and it works. And you don't become a character in Final Destination by putting him in his place. It's worth it.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • I'm worried
